Mezo wrote: Check out this .... A male physician entered an examinig room to find a new female Muslim patient with her husband. The woman is wearing a head scarf, she says nothing and makes no eye contact , her husband does all the talking, what is the most appropriate action the physician should do ??? Common guys, try to solve this one, it is an ethics q that u can c in both steps 1 & 2 and probably 3 ... here is the choices .... After thanking the husband the physician should do which of the following?? - ask him to lift the woman's clothes so that he can listen to her lungs
- ask him to wait outside while the physician examines the woman in private
- ask the woman directly to describe her symptoms
- ask the woman to disrobe so that she can be examined
- ask the woman if she wishes to have her husband present during the examination
- suggest that husband and wife may be more comfortable with a female physisian
- tell the husband the best information comes directly from the patient, and question the woman directly about her symptoms
The reason y i brought this up is that i always find difficulty solving these kinds of qs, when they ask how to act or say, coz u become confused between ur personality, ur beliefs , and that u wanna rise up to the professional level they wanna u act with, and there is no clear principle that u might build ur choice upon .... so, we might reach for it together ...

Zidan dah la3eeeeb gamed gedan bas mesh mahzooz fe germany, if u saw his goals in Denmark , amazing player, i hope that he continues with the same performance till he bring us the cup, la7san beyakol darb gamed gedan

well guys the correct answer is 2. ask him to wait outside while the physician examines the woman in private.....y?? ...... because ....... u've to remeber that the woman is the patient..the physician needs to make contact with her & create a forum in which she can communicate without any interference from her husband... the best way to do this is to ask to speak to the patient in private ..... Note that, either the woman or her husband may object to this request .... ---> if the husband objects ---> offer to have a female staff member present while he is out of the room ---> if the wife objects ( & she has the right to do so ) -----> then ask what would make her most comfortable .... The Key here is that not to get caught up assuming that because of the couples religion & culture, they necessarily have certain beliefs or desires. Membership in a group doesn't mean that one shares all the beliefs of that group. To assume other wise is mere prejudice. [font color="#000000"]I actually, choosed 7 like maoudoody coz i got caught up in that being Muslims, i know there must be a Mehrem and so i thought that q wants to test me if i know that the info should be from the patient or not?? but i was thinking of 2 too, but choosed the wrong answer, as i thought they will sure object ..... [/font] [font color="#000000"]These kinds of qs r too tough to me, i don't know how to overcome, in behavioral these qs r the ones that lower my score, so ... any ideas????[/font]

Best is Kaplan notes 2007 in all subjects, u'll find them in the bookstore that u used to get ur medical books from, if not they r present in Bookstores of El Kasr El Ainy and Ain Shams, get them with the Kaplan Q-book , they should cost about 150 LE .... Also, u should listen to the videos of Kaplan center preparation course, they r sold in the same Bookstores , but u should wait for a while as 2007 version is sold now on the net and it should be available in Egypt in a couple of months.... for qs u should use Kaplan Q-book as i said above + Kaplan Q-bank, also available in the same bookstores, but take care not to confuse it with the Kaplan IV Q-bank ( IV = Integrated Vingette ) u don't need that one .... and USMLE World Q-bank u'll purchase this one online from www.usmleworld.com and the usmle sample cd, u get it when u apply for the test and u can download it from their site , and finally the NBME which r 4 forms where u can assess ur perforamnce by them from www.nbme.org Hope that helped.... GL

to get a residency, u have to be ECFMG certified, if u passed step 1 , 2ck & 2cs, u get temporarily certification from ECFMG by which u can get a residency on J1 visa, but u still have to take step3 within 7 yrs i think, to be permenantely certified by ECFMG, so u can do it during ur residency, but if u got it b4 ur residency application u can get ur residency on H1b visa ... to know more read the bulletin and booklet as i suggested earlier ..... 2007 edition is updated and some books r changed, as far as i can recall Biochemistry is changed and i think pharma too, Anatomy is still the same, patholgy updated, that's what i can remember,.... u should get 2007 notes, from ur bookstore is preferable than internet ... if u r asking for the videos from the internet ...it is quite expensive but check these 2 sites ... www.usmlepro.com & www.usmlestep.com a friend of mine tried both and told me that they r trusted but still caution is required anyway ...

h1b visa is needed for those aiming to staying at usa after residency if u started ur residency on j1 visa u will be subjected to obligatory 2 years return to ur home country or u can waive these two years by working in a rural area for three years to change ur j1 to h1 b which after 3 yrs can be changed to green card also a good score on step 3 makes ur credentials look better
