Thank you for participating in the session.

In RRR we discussed:

  • Shock
  • Rheumatic fever
  • Cerebellar tumour

The Video station was of a 6 week old baby with respiratory difficulty and getting oxygen.

Dr S took the hotseat and did a very good attempt at recognising the clinical signs and with clinical reasoning. A few minor points were helped by Dr I along with current management guideline.

The Learning points are:

  • Have a differential diagnosis of the condition
  • Signs of deterioration in clinical condition
  • How will you monitor deterioration of a child
  • What instructions will you give the nurse / junior
  • Think for 5 seconds – organising your thoughts before replying
  • Observation is key – be very careful
  • Try and ‘see’ different aspects when reviews the video clip.
