Post cholecystectomy bleeding counseling consent for another surgery


It's an old case can anyone find it ??? I'm sure it's an old case but need to find it somewhere

Can't remember properly, start with 'we are sorry what happened to your husband . then every
operation has its own complications. In lap chole, one is slipping of clip from cystic artery
( given in the stem, you don't hv to know, where the bleeding is coming from) it can happen
even all the precaution hv taken, in a very expert surgeon as well.
pause, let her express her anger, show a empathetic and patient face. then-
I can assure about one thing, he is in safe hand. the next management will be ---- say what is
given in stem like laparotomy, transfution, there complications, recovery whatever the
management.
Even after this she is shouting, tell her, I can arrange a meeting with consultant, we are here to
help- all the fancy dialogue.

It was already said on the stem that the wife had the consent, for me she was very anxious at
first but when I reassured her that the partner is stable and in safe hands she calmed down and
we had a chat I told her that unfortunate incidents may happen all the times and I'm sorry that it
has happened in your case, then she started to cry and then I offered the tissues and the water
And asked her if I can do something to make her feel better and she said no dr thanks I feel
relieved right now then I talked about the things that happened and what we are going
afterwards and as soon as he is out of the OR I'm going to arrange for her to meet him.

History.6 minutes.
Alcoholic. Off and on pain from last year. No pain at this time.
Most likely diagnosis and other D/D.
Pancreatities and told other D/D of epigastric pain.

Rule out cardiac causes for any chest discomfort. The most likely causes for epigastric pain would be GORD and
peptic ulcer disease. Chronic blood loss could happen in peptic ulcer disease and lead to anaemia, which is one
of the contributing factor for angina.

Tasks.
History. Was jogging. Felt SOB. Nothing else positive.

Weight 60
Vital signs given
No allergy, no pmh, no drug history
Complete the chart and write the ceftriaxone order

Yeah, you should write it in regular medication

I have an idea but i'm not sure, i think the reason was when i asked the examiner is VTE assessment done or not and
then the examiner told me whatever you need is mentioned in the stem and instead of leaving it, I ticked the VTE
prophylaxis not needed.

Khalilullah Arefi Cuz you shouldn't tick it unless you have done the assessment yourself, when i didn't do it I
shouldn't have touched it.
Chris Villacorta So for Ceftriaxone, you fill it out on the regular medicine portion of the chart. Dose/frequency 1g
mane write the dates for today then for a minimum of 4 days, to review after that. Then cross out the dates after so
the nurse would know it's only up to that date. So for example 29/7, 30/7, 31/7, 1/8-----------------. Very important to
note of any allergies, none for this case though. But write something on it even so. To add, treatment should be
greater or equal to 2 days after symptom resolution. *MIMS

I have passed this case and got perfect 7 in each with out any idea what i did
In dose I mentioned 500mg B.D because i got cautious when they mentioned about GFR.
Rest of the things were just filling the form.
Furthermore, I didn't even put the dates right.

I had written ceftriaxone in regular medication AND filled out only regular medication part because they had
mentioned thatceftriaxone is going to be a regular medication in the statement.
Creatinine level was given which i overlooked because it is used to look for the admission of a pneumonia patient.
I had filled rest of the form with name of the patient , weight because they had given it, route I/V, No allergies because
it was mentioned and 500 mg B.D because I got cautious about eGFR.
