  • 👋🏻 Hey guys! In this video I run through how to take a patient history. This video is a collection of thing's I've learned during my time throughout medical school and from my time spend on hospital wards. I hope you find this video helpful in practicing your history taking technique. It has a lot of information I wish I had a couple of years ago.
    Please remember, I am a medical student, NOT a doctor, and I am making this video simply to pass on the information which I have found helpful throughout medical school and which has helped me. This video is not a golden rulebook for history taking, nor the best way to do it, it's my way of doing it.

    We use the acronym OLDCARTS for the HPI. Onset, Location, Duration, Character, Aggravating factors, Relieving factors, Timing, Severity. Usually works with most complaints!

    I'm an ESL teacher with a personal interest in health and medicine, who has also done some interpretation for American medical professionals doing clinics in interior Amazon villages. I came across this video looking for some great ways to teach my ESL students about taking history to prepare them for things I didn't think to prepare them for before they were called to do interpretation for this trip. So I'm preparing a lesson on genitourinary complaints to add to my curriculum, and in that lesson, I'll combine it with learning how to take a history, so that they get the vocabulary I didn't teach them. I was not expecting to find so many genitourinary complaints, but I was always getting called over by my embarrassed students to interpret. So the next students are going to get it, and who cares if they're embarrassed. They'll get over it and become fine interpretors. Thanks for such a great and concise video.

    This is so helpful to review as a first year med student! It's interesting that y'all in the UK use "SOCRATES" as your acronym - I've never heard that before! Here in the US we use either "OLDCARTS" or more recently "OPQRST". Super cool video and would love to see more videos like this as you transition into full time clinical! 😇

    As a fellow medical student I think you have covered every single step to the depth. In my opinion better aproach would have been if you had a friend to play a patient and explain everything during the interview, altho as this isnt strictly video for future doctors it is more than enough to understand the concept of taking history. Great work man , keep it up!

    Doctors are a blessing for mankind. Good doctors are really huge blessings. I just underwent surgery and can't thank my surgeon and anesthesiologist enough not only for saving my life but also for being so kind and caring for me through such a sensitive period of my life. Dr Nasir (you're almost a doctor!), keep up the good work, and don't ever leave your empathy for your patients. That's really important. Guaranteed, you'll meet some asshole patients, but please forgive them and move on. Also, please don't leave this profession for something more attractive (no disrespect to Ali Abdal, he's great!), but my request to you would be to please please please never leave this line of work. All the very best to you. Keep making more videos I'm not a doctor, but your videos are very helpful either way.

    Those in-depth questions are usually asked in the specialist department, but most of the GP I have been visiting are asking a few questions, e.g. what are your medication in the past weeks? how do you feel now after taking those? what is your medical concern now? I'm glad to learn a lot from the way KIng College Medicine has taught you along when you are practising your medical knowledge by sharing with us. Thanks.

  • @DaRyteJuan

    As a mere patient consuming this kind of content, it’s amazing to me how astute medical personnel can sometimes be.
    First you have to remember just HOW to collect the information, and then you have to retain it long enough to capture it to the patient’s medical record.
    However, with the last doctor I had a consultation with, I feel like he should have read my rights first. Many things I disclosed I thought were only going to remain as verbal conversations. No! He transcribed EVERYTHING, even the most superfluous things.
    I’m never gonna be that open again. Sheesh.

    "Hi, my name is Nasir and I am now a final-year medical student studying at King's College London." Such a distinguished intro!🤩🤩👍👍
    Excellent video!🌟💯 Thank you for making this! It's extremely useful for everybody, not just for future doctors! Once, when I was at the ER because of a severe kidney inflammation, I was lying on the gurney, half-dead and writhing in pain, when all of a sudden a completely baffled med student was sent "to my aid". The poor creature was supposed to take my medical history - and she just stared at me, clutching to a piece of paper and a pen, not knowing what to ask, let alone what to do. I had to proceed by reporting my medical history myself and I think I did quite well, since the supervising doctor (when he finally arrived) had no further questions for me. But this video is such an awesome guideline for such situations! 💯🌟👍Thank you for this! I've made notes from your video and I'm going to keep them in my bag for future reference! 👍😀
