hi robin.hope ur prep is going fine.I have a doubt in the ccs cases and would appreciate if u could help me.
1.In some cases the 5 min screen comes up as soon as the patient gets better and u re not able to shift the patient to wards or discharge him...is that alright?
2.in the giardiasis case once u reach the 5 min screen and patient is better what does one have to do ...do u cancel the antibiotics and other procedures.Will deleting previous orders mean that they are out of the patient management.....they say u can cancel orders and write fresh orders...
3.What exactly should be done after the 5 min screen appears.plz tell me It would be great if u could tell me what u would do after the 5 min screen appears for the cases in the usmle cd...giardiasis,ra,tension pneumothorax
thank you

After doing NBME, I focus on my weak areas and doing Swanson.
Today I finished Pediatrics chapter in Swanson.
One biggest chapter left: Adult Medicine.
After finishing Swanson I will read Kap ck notes, FA, my own notes then go for the exam.
Good luck
