[@eswynplantagenet4483]

Really concise rundown of all the different role plays we could get, extremely useful for those like myself who don’t have much time to watch a separate video for every possible scenario

Hi, if a patient was asking to get an X-ray would you mention that as it uses radiation we would try to avoid the amount of scans done using X-ray unnecessarily?

[@zain9303]

for the last case with yusuf, are we meant to know the medicine/science behind things, like vomiting or certain types of test.

[@TheAspiringMedics]

Good question! Absolutely not, it's more just understanding the patient's journey of diagnosis, management and follow up

[@macworld2932]

Hi, regarding the last scenario, if placed in the dilema for an interview, should the doctor ever suggest to the patient they can get another scan but explain the drawbacks, or should it just be the doctor just trying to encourage the patient why it’s unnecessary?

[@TheAspiringMedics]

Great point! It really depends on exactly why the scan is necessary and depending on the patient’s risk factors, benefit: risk ratio

[@lakeam6982]

when is it appropriate to ask for the patient's expectations of why they are there? in the instance of giving a severe diagnosis, obviously the patient and doctor would have already been aware of symptoms and tests etc. In that instance, should we discuss the sequence of events instead, almost as a prelude to a warning shot statement? e.g what tests they have done and the explanation of symptoms? TIA

[@TheAspiringMedics]

Very good question, it’s good practice do so to check the patient’s current understanding, check for any misunderstanding and so you can better tailor your communication. Absolutely warning shots are really useful as well as checking if the environment was appropriate to break bad news ~ Yusuf

when would i use the ICE and SPIKE mnemonic

[@tamsindave]

spike is for breaking bad news, ice can be applied to any

[@catherinesullivan1823]

Can you please do one with an emphasis on graduate medicine with a non-science background.

[@handyman4everyman]

Great video. But saying 'if there's no bleeding on the outside there's no bleeding on the inside' is not accurate as obviously you can have internal bleeding in the brain without visible bleeding externally.

[@TheAspiringMedics]

Very true!
