39. Viva. 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.

The examiner will ask you 17 questions. When you have finished a question, you will not be allowed to return to it as later questions may indicate the answer. If you return, no marks will be awarded, even for correct answers.
