I took my test yesterday, day one was fine, but day 2 was challenging for emergency medicine and immediate care in those short blocks, many pediatric question where I had to make guess.
I am still puzzling about CCS part, I also had those common cases, managed the case appropriately, but inpatient and ER cases ended in the hospital never had chance to send them home and request follow up, when I ordered tests, as soon as I get diagnosis, I treated the patient, and then update starts coming up, patient is fine, doing well,,,, I also wanted to see the result of other test that I had ordered, I kept on advancing the clock but it never let me to go further, just that frequent update of vitals and patient comfort, and then in attempt of advancing clock case ended,,, although it was just 12 min... what does it mean?
My cases:
Menorrhagia leading to iron deficiency anemia, 22 month child with irritibility, Diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy, Hypersensitive reaction, polymyalgia rheumatica, rectal bleeding in child, CHF, right adenexal mass, hepatic encephalopathy
