1-Case choice:

It doesn’t have to be a “super interesting” or a “Zebra” case. If you have COPD exacerbations and HF exacerbations that is OK, we can always learn something from a bread and butter case. You might want to focus on differential, or workup, or treatment. All cases are welcome

Identify your case early on. Work with your senior on choosing a patient. You have a week head-start so use it.

2-Content:

It simply follows your H&P: You should have a chief complaint, an HPI (that includes active complaint and review of systems pertaining to it), a ROS, Histories, Illness script, Physical exam (including the vitals), your differential diagnosis, then the workup that was done. It is good to have a hospital course slide telling how you came to the active diagnosis and what was done, then your teaching slides about the subject of the case. Your teaching slides should not exceed 5 or 6 slides, quick take away points

I have attached a template that can aid you in doing your presentation

3-HPI rules 

Please make sure your HPI is clear. It is not a copy paste from admission note, make sure the chief complaint is explored properly along with the pertinent review of systems

4-Senior/Intern roles
