34. PPH. Review of management in the Unit.
Candidate’s instructions.
You are a new consultant with a main interest in obstetrics and the labour ward.
A patient had a major PPH 2 months ago and almost died. She made a good recovery after intensive treatment and has gone home.
The lead consultant for the delivery unit has asked you to conduct an in-depth review of management of PPH in the unit and make recommendations.
This is an unstructured viva: it is up to you to decide what to include.
The examiner will not assist you in any way.

35. Anencephaly.
Candidate’s instructions.
You are an SpR5 and running the ante-natal clinic – your consultant has been called to help a consultant colleague with an emergency on the labour unit and is not available for advice.
You are about to see Jean Hathersage. She is 25 years old and had a 10-week scan last week that showed anencephaly. She stated that she did not want TOP. She was counselled, given information leaflets and asked to return to the antenatal clinical today for further discussion.
It is your task to conduct that discussion.

36. Role-play. Pre-op clinic. Hysterectomy.
Candidate’s instructions.
You are a fifth-year SpR and are running the pre-op clinic. You are about to see Mary Smith.
The notes say that her uterus is enlarged to the size of a 16 week pregnancy by fibroids and she has been listed for hysterectomy. She has menorrhagia and medical treatments have not worked.
Your task is to complete the tasks you feel are appropriate in the pre-op clinic.

37. Candidate’s instructions.
This is a structured “conversation” about parvovirus infection and pregnancy. The examiner will ask 22 questions. When you have answered a question you will not be allowed to return as subsequent questions may yield the answer. If you do return no marks will be allocated, even for correct answers..
