Book Description
From reviews: "This book has been thoughtfully written... and will be a great asset to each trainee using it, but also a good resource for trainers and VTS groups."; InnovAiT, August 2016 CSA Practice Cases for the MRCGP contains 52 practice cases (set up as 4 full CSA circuits) to allow you to work through a range of representative CSA cases. These cases can be tackled by a small revision group or used for structured individual revision. It is a book of two halves: The first half of the book contains 26 cases – these case contain lots of detail and are an ideal way to start preparing for the exam. The “patient” notes are extensive to allow a non-medic to tackle the role-playing. The explanatory notes for the “doctor” contain comprehensive guidance and questions to provide a model of what a good competent GP should do. These cases help you to refine your consultation skills and identify areas of weakness. The second half of the book also contains 26 cases, but the cases are more concise, with less explanation, and are ideal to work through as the real exam gets closer. They offer you the opportunity to practise and revise your CSA technique. Whether you are just starting out on your preparation for the CSA exam, or are in the final cramming stage, the cases in this book should be an essential part of your preparation.

Book Description
The RCGP Insider's Guide to the CSA for the MRCGP gives candidates a unique understanding of the CSA (clinical skills assessment) component of the MRCGP exam to become a qualified GP. The CSA exam is a test of the candidate's consultation skills, which is often perceived to be a difficult-to-pass, high-stakes exam. The insider authors range from a GP who sat the CSA, to a CSA examiner and case writer, and to researchers who have looked thoroughly at the exam. For the first time, ideas on communication based on evidence from the exam itself are presented, rather than an idealised view of what commentators think should happen. The book provides practical tips on what to expect on the day of the exam and busts some of the myths about the CSA. It also gives useful advice on conducting the CSA cases, not only showing how candidates typically structure the ten-minute consultation but also describing occasions when flexibility is needed. Drawing on many hours of CSA video, the book's recommendations are based directly on findings from real candidate performances. In particular, the authors look at the skills and strategies used by successful candidates. Transcripts of real candidate talk are presented, giving readers an accurate feel of the exam. The book includes two entire practice circuits with cases carefully selected to represent a normal CSA exam. Paperwork demonstrates typical case notes that a candidate will be given, the marking criteria used by the examiners, and the directions role-players receive before performing as patients. This means the reader can also try out the role of a CSA examiner - a real insider's perspective of what the examiners will be looking for! A hundred short ideas for additional cases are also given for readers to develop further practice cases.
