ortho final exam

meena was so scared she couldn't sit anymore

it started out with me waking up early to finish what i haven't studied yet and it ended up with me thinking hell i shouldn't have stayed up at all last nite or studied ortho!

let me enlighten u..

so i was the first person to be examined by Dr. Radhii ( the traumatologist who loves spinal surgery ) and i happened to get a case of cellulitis. the problem was this patient has DM, HPT and hypercholesterolenemia and history of infected bypass. i had so many things to ask but i dodn't have the time until he asked me to stop as i was about to enter the family history. so i already felt that i would fail. then for the physical examination he asked me to just do inspection.
the questions i got during the discussion were from BASIC medicine.

1. what happens during inflammation? what are the cell mediators and what does each of em do?

2. what is the first sign of nephropathy and connect it with bilateral leg swelling

3. what is SIRS ( systemic inflammation response syndrome and explain the pathophy?

4. what will u do if this patient comes to u at AnE?

5. what can we see at the x-ray and what antibiotics do we give?

so those are just the examples of the questions i unfortunately had to answer. scary! managed to crawl my way through with much difficulty. i can say this is not a gud way to start 4th year.

happy faces of wani and me after the OSCE

other than that, he was really nice and i can say for the future ortho students, he is unpredictable. he will just choose anyone.
