1 MEDICAL Patient Assessment/Management Medical Essay to Skill Examiners Objectively observing and recording each candidate s performance for feedback. Acting in a professional, unbiased, non-discriminating manner, being cautious to avoid any perceived harassment of any candidate. Recording, totaling, and documenting all performances as required on all skill evaluation forms Thoroughly reading the specific essay for the assigned skill before actual evaluation begins Checking all equipment, props prior to and during the examination Briefing Simulated Patient for the assigned skill Assuring professional conduct of all personnel involved with the particular skill throughout the examination Information pertaining to vital signs should not be provided until the candidate actually takes the vital signs of the Simulated Patient (BP, P and R) using a stethoscope and a blood pressure cuff. Each candidate must actually obtain vital signs on the patient, including blood pressure, pulse rate and respiratory rate. Be sure to record the measured and reported vital signs on the appropriate spaces of the skill evaluation form. Acceptable ranges for scoring purposes are based upon the vital signs that you measure and record on the Simulated Patient: Blood pressure: ± 10 mmhg Pulse: ± 10 beats per minute Respiratory rate: ± 5 breaths per minute After the candidate measures the actual vital signs of the Simulated Patient, you may need to inform the candidate of adjusted vital signs based upon the approved testing scenario for the examination as compared to the actual vital signs just obtained by the candidate. INSTRUCTIONS TO THE PSYCHOMOTOR SKILLS CANDIDATE FOR PATIENT ASSESSMENT/MANAGEMENT MEDICAL This is the Patient Assessment/Management - Medical skill. In this skill, you will have fifteen (15) minutes to perform your assessment, patient interview, and "voice" treat all conditions discovered. You should conduct your assessment as you would in the field, including communicating with your Simulated Patient. Using the term simulated removal xxx clothing is acceptable. As you progress through this skill, you should state everything you are assessing. Specific clinical information not obtainable by visual or physical inspection, for example blood pressure, should be obtained from the Simulated Patient just as you would in the out-of-hospital setting. You and your team will be working with you. They can only perform the interventions you indicate necessary and I will acknowledge all interventions you order. I may also supply additional information and ask questions for clarification purposes. Do you have any questions?
