General Surgery MM

• Presentation Template
• (use your own color scheme)

2
The Why

• The goal is to use the MM powerpoint
  presentations as a repository of
  learning/teaching material.
• We cant do it without you.

3
Some Suggestions

• The presentations will be voice-recorded, so
  please speak clearly.
• The presentations will be used by many audiences,
  so
• avoid mentioning patients names during the
  presentation
• put the patients name only on the first page (it
  will then be blurred out before posting on
  website)
• do not put surgical consultants name anywhere in
  the presentation
• use font size ? 24
• avoid typographical errors like the plague and,
• dont cram too much material in each slide (like
  this one).

4
Last bit of editorialization

• Use the following slides a guide add and adjust
  as you deem necessary (but not too much).
• And thanks in advance for doing a spotless job

5
History of Present Illness/ Past Medical History

• This will bring the audience up to speed to the
  time the patient was seen by your team.
• For PMH, please use your judgment (but only if
  its good) and keep it relevant (e.g. childhood
  tonsillectomy in a multi-trauma patient is
  perhaps not so relevant).

6
Physical Examination

• Self-explanatory

7
Clinical Impression

• After the history physical exam, what did you
  think was going on? (no cheating)

8
Investigations

• Laboratory
• Imaging
• When reporting CT and other radiographic
  findings, dont copy radiologist interpretation
  rather, highlight the salient points in your own
  words.
