‘What am I supposed to be doing tomorrow?’ – planning case investigations like a specialist

 

Overview

These courses will further help those post-grads with a keen interest in small animal medicine to refine those key skills used by specialists in small animal internal medicine and develop their problem-based approach to challenging cases in primary care practice. Medicine benefits from a systemic and thorough approach and these courses are designed to demonstrate the fundamental aspects that underpin this approach. As before, the main objective is to make medicine more rewarding in primary care practice and to help delegates feel more empowered in the clinic they are in.

Topics to be covered 

• Problem-based medicine and the approach to complex medical cases
• Selecting the correct diagnostic test and asking the correct clinical question of that test
• Generating a minimum database to investigate complex medical cases.
• Case-based practical sessions using real recently referred cases which have clearly posed challenges in primary care practice.
