HX COPD, worried – says new today) • Summarise salient points: lady post op, desaturated. Possible differentials: respiratory (COPD exacerbation, chest infection, normal sats) cdv (post op MI, PE) • On way – place oxygen, repeat obs, gather notes, re-bleep if further concern • A-E and re-assessment • Initial management – bedside (check probe) bloods and ABG, portable CXR, potential CTPAEmergency scenarios example “Called to see a 65 year old lady who is 4 days post cholecystectomy who is increasingly SOB” • SBAR: Situation - 65 y/o lady 4 days post cholecystectomy desaturated on ward Background - She has bound of COPD, otherwise well, not on abx. Assessment - A-E and stabilized Recommendation/response – main differential is….proposed plan is….what do you thinkprioritisation List of ”bleeps” 1. Summarise – what are main problems 2. Rank problems: what could be sorted quickly, what is important. Takes long, low importance = low priority. Patient safety is number one 3. How will you organise/planPrioritisation example e.g. analgesia, desaturating patient, discharge letter, abdominal pain 1. Desaturating patient – airway takes priority 2. Analgesia – pain is not nice, risk of poor inspiration and chest infections, cause of pain could be of concern 3. Abdominal pain – need more info, could be benign could be serious 4. Discharge letter – lower priority than unwell patient but needs doing to keep flow of ptPrioritisation example e.g. analgesia, desaturating patient, discharge letter, abdominal pain o Things can change – abdominal pain could be perforation, analgesia might be benign/serious o How will you remember what you’re doing and when o How will you ‘juggle’ responsibilities e.g. stabilize, escalate and then see next patientThank you! š Next session: Leadership, management and structuring responses š https://share.medall.org/events/s fp-interview-series-high-yield-3-of- 4
