Instructions

You are a medical student on placement in general practice in Geraldton. Your next patient is Noah Pascual, 20 months old, brought in by his mother, Kristine, because his right eye has started turning in over the past month.

  1. Take a focused history from his mother

  2. Outline to the examiner:

    • Your most likely diagnosis and differentials
    • Next steps in management, including relevant investigations
  • You do not need to examine Noah; the examiner will give you his findings if you ask
  • You do not need to summarise your findings
