OSCE Information for the candidate (student) You are Dr. B, a GP/FP in a practice / health centre. Mrs. A is a 75 year old woman that has recently registered with you. You haven’t seen her previously and you have a blank clinical file in front of you. Mrs. A’s previous file has not yet been transferred to you. All you have is her name, age and address. Your task will be to interview this patient, write SOAP notes on the consultation and deal with her problems and requests. OSCE Information for the role player (patient) Mrs A, a 75 year old woman has recently registered with Dr. B. Dr.B doesn’t know much about Mrs. A’s previous health problems. When Mrs. A enters the consulting room coughing, she informs her family physician (FP) that she would like to have her celecoxib prescription renewed and, by the way, “could you also write down my other usual prescriptions”? She gives the doctor a paper with the list of regular medication. Mrs. A, when asked, informs Dr. B. that she has chronic low back pain, was seen by an orthopaedist in the emergency service two weeks ago and was prescribed celecoxib. This new drug is helping her. If asked, Mrs. A. should confess that she sometimes takes both diclofenac and celecoxib. When asked, Mrs.A. will inform the Dr. that she has been taking paroxetine during her husband’s terminal disease and since his death she feels lonely and sad. Her feelings are alleviated somewhat by the paroxetine and she is sleeping better. The only thing she complains about is her weight loss of about 5 kg in the last month which she attributes to her sadness and depression. When Dr. B. asks Mrs. A about the reasons for taking salmeterol she will inform her that she was given that for her COPD and that she feels much better from using it. She was seen by a lung specialist 3 months ago and had a chest X-ray and everything was OK. If asked, she will confess smoking 20 cigarettes a day and she has thought about quitting but it is OSCE Information for the examiner The student is expected to write SOAP notes on the consultation. The different elements of these notes will be used for the assessment of the OSCE station. The consultation will be video recorded. The observers will use a classification form to mark the student’s performance. During the interview, the doctor should review the medication together with the patient and the reasons why she’s taking them. There will be marks for: A.Identification of the problems B.Management and prioritisation C.Follow-up D.Empathy OSCE APPENDIX 1 OBJECTIVE (EXAMINATION) Blood pressure Pulse Cardiac auscultation Pulmonary auscultation Lasseque/ straight leg raising Bragard Temperature 135/70 72 Normal Normal Normal Negative 36.8oC OSCE APPENDIX 2 LIST OF MEDICATION SALMETEROL 500mcg 2 puffs bd PAROXETINE 20 mg 1 daily DICLOFENAC 75 mg 1 bd OSCE APPENDIX 3 LAB tests CBC normal CRP low Complete biochemistry tests normal Urine analysis normal OSCE Information for the candidate (student) You are Dr. B, a GP/FP in a practice / health centre.
