2003 OSCE Handbook The world according to Kelly, Marshall, Shaw and Tripp Our OSCE group, like many, laboured away through 5th year preparing for the OSCE exam. The main thing we learnt was that our time was better spent practising our history taking and examination on each other, rather than with our noses in books. We therefore hope that by sharing the notes we compiled you will have more time for practice, as well as sparing you the trauma of feeling like you‟ve got to know everything about everything on the list. You don‟t! You can‟t swot for an OSCE in a library! This version is the same as the 2002 OSCE Handbook, except for the addition of the 2002 OSCE stations. We have used the following books where we needed reference material: th Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine, 4 Edition, R A Hope, J M Longmore, S K McManus and C A Wood-Allum, Oxford University Press, 1998 Oxford Handbook of Clinical Specialties, 5th Edition, J A B Collier, J M Longmore, T Duncan Brown, Oxford University Press, 1999 N J Talley and S O‟Connor, Clinical Examination – a Systematic Guide to Physical Diagnosis, Third Edition, MacLennan & Petty Pty Ltd, 1998 J. Murtagh, General Practice, McGraw-Hill, 1994 These are good books – buy them! Warning: This document is intended to help you cram for your OSEC. It is not intended as a clinical reference, and should not be used for making real life decisions. We‟ve done our best to be accurate, but don‟t accept any responsibility for exam failure as a result of bloopers…. Hope it goes well, Matthew Kelly, Daniel Marshall, Rebekah Shaw and David Tripp Students at the Wellington School of Medicine 2002, 2003 Index: Topic Order Index: Topic Order ................... 2 48: Headache ......................... 56 13: Ankle Swelling ................ 98 26: Cranial Nerve Lesions ..... 56 55 & 81: Stiffness & Index: Numerical Order ........... 3 9: Abnormal Speech .............. 57 Swelling of joints ............... 98 Introductory Tips ...................... 5 83: Tremour ........................... 57 41: Falls ............................... 100 Approach to a Station .............. 5 57: Limb Weakness ............... 58 21: Common Fractures History Outline ........................ 6 151: CT/MRI of CNS ............ 59 (Radiology) and 152: Sieve ........................................ 7 Ears, Eyes and Balance ........... 62 Skeletal Radiographs ....... 101 Management Options .............. 8 104: Examination of the 153: Isotope Bone Scan ....... 101 Past OSCE Stations ................. 8 Eye and Retina ................... 62 Genito-Urinary ...................... 102 Systemic Symptoms and 7: Abnormal Pupils................ 63 107: Pelvic Exam................. 102 Signs ..................................... 13 10: Abnormal Vision ............. 63 37: Dysuria .......................... 102 42: Fever ............................... 13 34: Disturbance of Eye 135: Test and Interpret 67: Pain ................................. 14 Movement .......................... 65 Urinalysis ......................... 103 69: Pallor ............................... 14 79: Strabismus ....................... 65 45: Haematuria .................... 104 54: Jaundice........................... 15 73: The Red Eye .................... 66 88: Urinary retention ........... 105 91: Weight gain ..................... 16 35: Dizziness or vertigo ......... 68 86: Urinary frequency.......... 106 92: Weight Loss .................... 17 33: Balance ............................ 69 87: Urinary hesitancy .......... 106 40: Difficulty Sleeping .......... 18 68: Painful Ear ....................... 69 52: Incontinence of urine 66: Oedema ........................... 19 82: Tinnitus ........................... 70 and faeces ........................ 107 62: Nausea/vomiting ............. 19 38: Ear Discharge .................. 70 51: Impotence ...................... 107 40: Enlarged Lymph Nodes ... 21 4: Abnormal Hearing ............. 71 64: Nocturia ......................... 108 85: Unexplained Lump .......... 21 Psychological Medicine ........... 73 65: Nocturnal Enuresis ........ 108 63: Neck swelling, lump or 105: Higher Mental 71: Polyuria ......................... 109 pain .................................... 21 Function ............................. 73 84: Undescended Testes ...... 110 75: Shock .............................. 22 23: Confusion ........................ 73 154: IVP/MCU .................... 111 27: Dehydration ..................... 23 136: Abnormal Grief ............. 74 Blood, Endocrine and 110: Use the Ambu Bag ........ 24 11: Alcohol -
