Dear All

Thank you for participating in the session today.

In RRR we discussed:

• Acute Renal failure – causes
• Acute Liver Failure
• Acute otitis media – complications

We started our Autumn module after a successful Summer module. 

AG introduced the  current Clinical Examination. The exam has been changing gradually after the massive make over during Covid. 

It is back to almost Pre-Covid ‘structure / layout’. Children are back in the examination clinical stations as are Role players in relevant stations. However in the Development Station you will meet a Role player for history but will not have a child to interact with for assessment. This is the persistent change that we expect will change over the next few diets.

Dr Shishir gave important advice on types of scenarios in Communication one might get. Important to practice Ethics, Gillick competence etc for India also as you should be caught out at the exam. A general template can be followed to get good outcome at the exam. Social history has significantly more importance than usually given in ‘ Overseas / Indian’ exams – hence pay attention.

We will continue with History station at next session.

Video recording on Clinical exam will be available online soon at http://www.mrcpchonline.org
