  S3E5 - Australian Chlamydia Guidelines for Exams

  Aug 17, 202619 minS3

  Welcome to Season 3 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive! As Australia’s most reported communicable disease, chlamydia is frequently asymptomatic (85%–90%), making screening protocols a favourite examiner target. This episode breaks down the latest guidelines: prioritising doxycycline (100mg BD for 7 days) over azithromycin, selecting highly sensitive self-collected vaginal swabs over urine, and managing pregnant patients (who require azithromycin and a mandatory 4-week test of cure). We dive into tracing partners back 6 months, implementing Patient-Delivered Partner Therapy (PDPT), and scheduling the mandatory 3-month retest. Deliver a flawless, high-scoring clinical plan today! #AMCClinicalExam #Chlamydia #OSCE #Doxycycline #Patient-DeliveredPartnerTherapy(PDPT) #TestofCure #IMGAustralia #ASHMGuidelines #SexualHealthHistory #NAAT Pro Tip: In your OSCE, do not default to Azithromycin for everyone! Doxycycline (100 mg BD for 7 days) is now the first-line recommendation for uncomplicated chlamydia. If your patient is pregnant , remember two non-negotiable rules: first, treat with Azithromycin 1g stat; second, a Test of Cure (TOC) is mandatory and must be done by NAAT no earlier than 4 weeks after treatment is completed to avoid false-positive DNA results. Additionally, discussing Patient-Delivered Partner Therapy (PDPT) for eligible heterosexual partners demonstrates the state-of-the-art public health integration examiners love to reward! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Episodes in ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Season 1 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ( 150 clinical scenarios ) have been indexed by topic , patient group , discipline , setting , and more to support targeted learning.

  S3E4 - Anogenital Warts Management Brief

  Aug 10, 20265 minS3

  Welcome to Season 3 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive! Caused primarily by HPV types 6 and 11, genital warts are diagnosed visually and often cause significant psychological distress. This episode deconstructs the ASHM guidelines, comparing patient-applied treatments like topically applied podophyllotoxin paint and imiquimod cream with clinician-initiated cryotherapy. Learn critical counselling pearls: explaining that treatment is cosmetic, not curative, recommending HPV vaccination, and advising patients to avoid shaving or waxing to prevent autoinoculation. We also demystify exam traps, including why contact tracing is not recommended and why normal vaginal delivery is safe during pregnancy. AMCClinicalExam #GenitalWarts #ASHMGuidelines #Podophyllotoxin #Imiquimod #HPVVaccine #IMGAustralia #ContactTracingWarts #Cryotherapy #CondylomataLata Pro Tip: In your OSCE, the two biggest traps are contact tracing and shaving! Remember to explicitly tell the examiner that contact tracing is not recommended for genital warts because most partners already have subclinical infection. Also, score major safety points by advising the patient to avoid shaving or waxing the pubic area to prevent autoinoculation of the virus. Reassure pregnant patients that vaginal delivery is perfectly safe as transmission risk to the baby is extremely low. Finally, always keep syphilis on your differential—mentioning the need to exclude condylomata lata demonstrates the stellar clinical reasoning examiners love to see! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Episodes in ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Season 1 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ( 150 clinical scenarios ) have been indexed by topic , patient group , discipline , setting , and more to support targeted learning.

  S3E3 - Asymptomatic STI Screening

  Aug 3, 20265 minS3

  Welcome to Season 3 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive! This episode deconstructs the ASHM Standard Asymptomatic Check-up guidelines, essential for any IMG's OSCE toolkit. We explore how to identify at-risk populations—from new sexual partners to specific subpopulations like MSM and sex workers. Learn the mandatory "Big Four" testing battery: HIV and Syphilis serology for everyone, plus Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea NAAT. We compare specimen sensitivity—explaining why self-collected vaginal swabs are the "specimen of choice" over urine—and when to include extragenital swabs. Master window periods, Hep B status checks, and PrEP discussions to deliver a high-scoring, patient-centred plan! #AMCClinicalExam #AsymptomaticSTICheck #ChlamydiaNAAT #IMGAustralia #OSCE #HIVTesting #SyphilisSerology #SexualHealthHistory #NAATTesting Pro Tip: In your OSCE, never forget that all STI testing must include HIV and syphilis . A common mistake is only testing for "the drips" (Chlamydia/Gonorrhoea). Furthermore, explicitly stating that a self-collected vaginal swab is more sensitive than a urine sample demonstrates the high-level clinical knowledge examiners expect. Don't forget to offer condoms and discuss PrEP at the end of the consult to secure those final prevention marks! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Episodes in ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Season 1 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ( 150 clinical scenarios ) have been indexed by topic , patient group , discipline , setting , and more to support targeted learning.

  S3E2 - STI Contact Tracing in General Practice

  Jul 27, 202621 minS3

  Welcome to Season 3 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive! Contact tracing is a critical process for breaking the chain of infection, preventing re-infection, and avoiding long-term health complications. This episode breaks down the ASHM Guidelines for identifying at-risk sexual and injecting partners. Learn essential OSCE steps: calculating the tracing window, offering a choice between patient-led or provider-initiated referral , and utilising anonymous notification tools like Let Them Know . We also address complex scenarios involving domestic violence and pregnancy where clinician-led anonymous tracing is the "best option" for safety. Deliver a professional and collaborative management plan today! #AMCClinicalExam #STIContactTracing #OSCE #IMGAustralia #ASHMGuidelines #SexualHealth #PatientCenteredCare #Sexual#History #LetThemKnow Pro Tip: In your OSCE, never just tell the patient to "tell their partners." High-scoring candidates demonstrate shared decision-making by offering a choice of methods and explicitly mentioning anonymous provider-initiated referral . Mentioning that you would seek specialist advice for complex situations like domestic violence or syphilis in pregnancy demonstrates the high-level safety awareness and clinical reasoning examiners are looking for! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Episodes in ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Season 1 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ( 150 clinical scenarios ) have been indexed by topic , patient group , discipline , setting , and more to support targeted learning.

  S3E1 - The Australian Sexual History Exam

  Jul 20, 202621 minS3

  Welcome to Season 3 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive! This high-yield episode breaks down the ASHM framework , moving beyond rote questions to normalisation and inclusivity . Learn how to "hook" a consultation by citing syphilis outbreaks and how to ask about preferred genital terms to respect LGBTQ+ patients. It covers essential questions regarding window periods , partner gender, and site-specific testing (throat, bottom, or genitals). Master risk stratification for high-risk groups—including travel and injecting drug use—while maintaining a non-judgmental, safe, and professional consultation that satisfies Australian standards today! #AMCClinicalExam #SexualHistory #OSCE #STITesting #ASHMGuidelines #LGBTQ+Health #RiskStratification #IMGAustralia #InclusiveMedicine Pro Tip: In your OSCE, examiners prize cultural safety and inclusivity . Specifically asking, "Do you have any terms for your genitals that you would prefer we use?" demonstrates a level of sophistication that distinguishes a passing candidate. Furthermore, if a patient is hesitant or vulnerable to "sexual shame," prioritise building rapport by offering basic testing first rather than forcing an invasive history—this demonstrates the patient-centred flexibility required for a high score. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Episodes in ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Season 1 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ( 150 clinical scenarios ) have been indexed by topic , patient group , discipline , setting , and more to support targeted learning.
