Book Description
This book helps readers pull together the knowledge and communication skills required for success in the consultation components of the MRCGP exam, namely the Clinical Skills Assessment (CSA) and the Clinical Observation Tool (COT). Rather than learning by rote, this book promotes a methodical, step-wise approach which will enable you to easily identify the type of case presenting, and to work out exactly what you need to demonstrate for a successful consultation.The book features a number of cases to test and enhance your skills, in three formats: 13 teaching cases- these are very detailed cases which provide you with a great deal of support and advice, including: suggested approaches to the consultation, model answers, background knowledge required, and the theoretical underpinnings of the consultation. 20 long cases- these build on the knowledge gained in the teaching cases and feature detailed analysis to help you develop an ordered, step-wise approach to data gathering, clinical management and interpersonal skills. 15 shorter practice cases- these help refine the skills you have learnt in working through the earlier cases. These cases come with marking schemes and can be used either alone or in small groups. Once you have worked through the book and refined this methodical approach, you will be able to approach any consultation confident in the knowledge that you possess the tools to succeed.Note that this edition does not contain a DVD. The 13 video cases in the previous edition have been replaced by teaching cases.

Book Description
This revision book for the clinical skills assessment (CSA) portion of the Membership of the Royal College of General Practitioners (MRCGP) exams includes a range of scenarios representative of those candidates will encounter, each created with direct input from an MRCGP examiner. The book enables candidates to role-play the scenarios with colleagues, providing notes for both candidates and actors. The book's structure follows the scheme of the exam, covering information gathering, clinical management and interpersonal skills. It includes sections focusing specifically on the history, examination and management plan for scenarios, while table summaries help candidates to focus on key areas. Each chapter concludes with a tutorial of relevant information and a suggested reading list. 'What the authors have developed in this text is a guide to excellence in this assessment method: how it runs, how it is structured, how it is marked. Anyone anxious about performance and success in the CSA (and all of us are) will find a practical way to prepare and pass.' - from the Foreword by John Spicer

The aim is help readers pull together the knowledge and communication skills required for success in the consultation components of the new MRCGP exam, namely Clinical Skills Assessment (CSA) and Clinical Observation Tool (COT). The book does this in three ways: by demonstrating some of the required consultation skills on the accompanying DVD, which features 13 typical consultations by identifying and teaching these skills in a further 20 case write-ups - these offer readers an ordered, step-wise approach to data gathering, clinical management and interpersonal skills by giving candidates 15 'mock cases' on which to practise, either alone or in small groups - these cases cover paediatric and telephone consultations, dealing with lists, breaking bad news and home visits. The book and DVD are meant to be interactive, with some of the DVD cases being accompanied by a CSA marking schedule for readers to assess the candidate' s performance. Readers are asked if the doctor on the DVD: asked the right questions, at the right time, in the right way performed the right examination correctly communicated in a precise, understandable and sensitive manner. All Specialist Trainees in General Practice will find the book helpful: ST1s will find the DVDs 1-7 most useful ST2s will find the 20 case write-ups useful for COT discussions ST3s preparing for the CSA will find the book essential, but are directed in particular to DVDs 8-13 and the Mock cases for group work This book is essential for all those preparing for the new MRCGP.
