Podcast
Tonight we discussed 4 essay topics.
47 Discuss how the risk of malaria in pregnancy can be reduced.
There is a Green-top guideline, so you need to prepare this.
48 A primigravid woman attends the antenatal booking clinic at 5 weeks’ gestation. She smells strongly of alcohol. She admits to consuming at least ½ bottle of vodka each day.
1. Outline the health problems linked to maternal consumption of large amounts of alcohol in pregnancy. 8 marks
2. Justify your management in the booking clinic. 8 marks
3. Justify your management of the remainder of the pregnancy. 4 marks
There is a lot of stuff about this including an RCOG "statement" which replaced a Green-Top.
49 Critically evaluate screening for ovarian cancer.
50 A nulliparous woman of 18 years attends A&E. She has missed taking her contraceptive pill. You are the SpR in O&G and have been asked to see her.
1. Justify the history you will take. 4 marks.
2. Justify the investigations you will arrange. 4 marks.
3. Justify the advice you will give. 12 marks.
Contraception is a real pain as it is not something gynaecologists practise in the UK. But you have to know it. I have a problem remembering all the Pills and rules and this topic would certainly be on my last-minute-revision list.
