21. Discussion. Balanced translocation..
We did not get round to
this last week and I have been asked to discuss it tonight. You will need the
document I emailed as it has the diagram we will refer to.
22. Role-play. Teach
pre-pregnancy counselling.
Candidate’s instructions.
You are an SpR5 and a teaching afternoon is planned for the midwives from
the antenatal clinic and junior medical staff. Your consultant recently met a
patient who had booked at the clinic. It had been a busy day and the only
prepregnancy counselling she received was a booklet which she was told to read.
The patient has limited reading skills and the consultant felt that a session
on the importance of face-to-face prepregnancy counselling was timely. You have
been asked to conduct a teaching session. Maggie Murray, one of the midwives,
has volunteered to be a role-player so that you can illustrate appropriate
technique.
Your tasks are to explain the importance of prepregnancy counselling and
demonstrate appropriate technique, using Maggie both as a midwife attending the
teaching session and a patient booking in.
23. Role-play. Sterilisation request.
You are a 5th.
year SpR. You are about to see Mrs. Mary Fecund in the gynaecology clinic.
There is a referral letter from the GP.
Read the letter and then
conduct the consultation with Mrs. Fecund as you would do in the clinic in your
hospital.

Re. Mary Fecund,
The Shoe, High Street, Slagheap.
Dear Doctor,
Please see Mrs Fecund who
has too many children. She wishes to be sure she has no more and has asked to
be sterilised – one of her friends was sterilised recently which has put her in
the mood to have it done.
Dr. John Williams.
