WHY FMCASES? 1) Curricular equivalence for all: Creates equal learning opportunities across rotation sites and time of year 2) Teaches you to be a doctor: • Muscle memory is important- flow is consistent with clinical encounters • Develops clinical reasoning, differential diagnosis building, and patient interaction skills • Studying a textbook may give similar knowledge but will not help build clinical competency
FMCASE UPDATES IN RESPONSE TO STUDENT FEEDBACK • PDFs and cases are inconsistent: All key content within cases is reflected in the PDFs. • Cases are redundant: Redundancy is planned for what is common and should be mastered. • Hard to search topics for further study: Look at this FMCases, SIMPLE and CLIPP content list to search cases by major diagnosis and content areas. Also on assignment tracker under corresponding diagnosis. • Old information, expired links: Tested annually. If they are not working, email Med. U and they will fix immediately.
USING FMCASES WELL • Look through the list of chief complaints. If you see a real patient with one of these chief complaints, do the corresponding case(s). • Pace yourself and work through at least 1 case/day • Plan to spend an average of 45 min/case. Core content is included within the body of the case. Links are a supplement and not required to do well.
