Thank you for participating in the session today.

In the random paediatric review we covered:

  • Oesophageal atresia & TOF
  • Diabetes Mellitus – How is affects adolescence
  • Staph & Strep infections – Local and Toxin mediated effects
  • ALL – presentation & side effects / complications of treatment
  • Evidence Based Medicine

Clinical Station was CVS. 7 year old with Pink, webbed neck, median sternotomy a murmur in URSA – systolic and diastolic. Good attempt by Dr A who completed the examination in under 6 minutes and all points were covered by team effort. Dr S took the hotseat when all other  ducked below the parapet – brave effort.

Learning points:

  • Timing is very important
  • Universal cues – watch carefully – ‘Everything’ is shown for a reason
  • Practice how to communicate our thoughts effectively
  • Need more practice with murmurs
  • Need to vocalize the exam – practice – practice

Add your comments or anything I may have missed.
