OSCE 2: Part I - History

http://lifeasamedicalstudent.blogspot.com

History of Present Illness:

This was my second attempt at the Objective Structured Clinical Exam (OSCE) during my second year of medical school.

Our goal was to perform a history and physical. We are given 14 minutes with the patient and 9 minutes immediately following to write the SOAP note.

The "patient" is an actor from the community who is portraying a fictional character. He has been assigned to have a "costochondritis." All responses and details he provides are fabricated for this experience.

The mustache was grown in an effort to "Change the face of men's health" and raise prostate awareness through the Movember initiative. (www.movember.com)

I'm glad you found it useful anakmud

Kidaz, you are correct, I am not a doctor nor do I pretend to be one. I am however a student of medicine and have been instructed to introduce myself as student doctor. Normally, in clinic I will inform the patients that I am a medical student. When was the last time you heard someone say they were a student resident? Residents, in fact, introduce themselves as "doctor" and rightfully so since they are certified as such. In my eyes, we are all students until the day we retire.

@cjjc1221 Very familiar. I always introduce myself as a "fourth-year medical student" as does everyone I have met. It's just clearer than "student doctor".

[cjjc1221]

@kidaz yeah, i'm not sure how familiar kidaz is with medical education - at my med school we're instructed to call ourselves 'student doctor' to our standardized patients whenever we see them.
