Thank you very much for all your videos I have been following all your videos and I have pass my osce today especially your implementation was very very helpful
Emer i hope you are well. I wanted to clarify if i gave the levothyroxine OD in the stat dose and it is in the regular medication also, am i just gonna code it 5 and sign and put the time i've given the stat dose?
Please what if paracetamol is on the stat dose and you have already given and co-codamol is also prescribed as a regular medication are we going to give the cocodamol
Hi Diego so a friend had her osce exam and was given cocodamol 30/500 as the dose to be administered and the medication she had at hand was also 30/500 but when her results came it stated that she made a drug error as she gave just one tablet which makes it an under dose though the patient’s weight was more than 50 kg. Can you please clear that for me as when I read the BNF the patient can take either one or two tablets or was she suppose to code the medication as it was a bit lower for the patient in respect with the weight Thanks
Good noon, I have a doubt, if a patient took paracetamol at 5 am as stat dose,and it is due for 8 am as regular meds .I am not supposed to give that because there should be 4 hrs difference between each intake . So what code I will put ? 5 or 10?
In the community drug chart 1st drug was paracetamol it was administered,2nd drug the. Frequency column it mentioned as required,can we administrr if the pt is on pain?
Hi Emer! Very helpful videos, can you please provide an example of reason for delay medications? Under the omitted doses of medicine and delayed doses. Thank you!
hi emer, what if the antibiotic has start date and duration and no finish date, is it incomplete??? but the duration is stated and even the start date, hndi po ba automatic na magbibilang ka from start day and the duration?
HI!! I was wondering if you had any videos going over medications likely to come up in the OSCE exam with more detailed overviews. Also ps: I’ve been watching your videos to study for my osce they’re so helpful!
Thank you so much E.D, please where do we chat other drugs that are code between 1-9. Also do we have to read the whole drug chat out to the assessor? or just go straight to the drugs that are due at our time inorder to manage our time well?
Hi Christiana.For codes 1-9 you only need to write the code and put your signature/initials on the appropriate box. Code 10 (others) you have to write what “other” means on last page of the drug chart. The instructions for this station is to read the chart and explain what you are giving and not giving and why. You need to manage your time wisely! Best of luck
Hi Emer what will i do if 1. I cannot give the meds in once only medication? Is it right to code it? Then write the code in the time given column and affix my signature in the signature column and then write it down to the omitted doses section? 2. What if the PRN meds has no start date but the patient is in pain? i know its not valid so i cannot give it to the patient. But my question is, will i code it 6 and write it on the omitted dose since it is due? or will i not code it and just explain what i will do next. Thank you in advance!
Hi! Thanks for your video .. very informative.. Just a quick question doon sa antimicrobial part if Hindi naka tick yun sa culture and sensitivity test do we need to omit kahit n verbally nag tell ang patient n they’re not allergic or no known allergy sa specific drugs ?
Emer hi! Any comment please for the last column, what if no tick for “pharmacy checked” and notes says amended. What does that mean? We have our exam on 8th and we’re confused. We searched your video right away to check for your ideas.
Hi Aicille, the pharmacy check section of the drug chart doesn't affect the validity of the prescription. It simply tells you whether that medication is newly prescribed- meaning that medication was prescribed during the hospitalisation, Amended - probably new dose frequency etc. Unchanged- not changed, obviously. Hopefully, that helps. Remember on the overview document during assessment station on the drug hx section ? - it will show you some.of the medications you are about to administer during the implementation station. Best of luck
Hello, Sir! Thanks so much for this nice lecture. I checked the links that you sent but I cannot seem to find Mariana’s case? I would be really thankful if you could provide me a copy.
Hi emer! I have a question with regards to the last page where we write the coded medications. Is it only for code 10? or do we need to write all the coded medications? Thank you so much!
Hello Emer and thank you for your very helpful videos. Can I ask a question? For the example chart above, Prednisolone, Theophylline and Thyroxine does not have the Indication or Instruction written. Isn't the prescription considered Incorrect or Incomplete and coded as 6?
It is still a correct prescription . Come to think of it; not all prescriptions come with additional instructions apart from essential components such as dose, route etc.
@@EmerDiego Thank you for the reply. I was just thinking that for teaching purposes you intentionally left those blank for you to ask the audience what the drugs are indicated.
Hi Emer, very nice and informative video. Really helpful. I want to know while documenting, its says signature so is it okay to write initials instead of signature?
For STAT, in case you are not giving it, you will write the code on the box indicated for time and of course your signature /initials on the appropriate box
Thank you Emer...in the situation where the drug is 250mg on the drug bottle and 250mg on the prescription chat but in the BNF it's 10 mg, is it right or wrong to give if it's due
Hi Emer on my exam , oxygen saturation prescription of my patient target was 95-98%, ticked so in that case will i just ask accessor mine patient current oxygen saturation or read all oxygen prescription, please reply, and on regular medicine if there is start date given but no duration given n finish date given should i give medicine or code , please reply as iam for resit so is worried . thank you in advance
Sir, for the omitted drugs po.. verify ko lang po if drugs coded 10 lang po ba ang ilalagay sa likod? how about po other drugs not given with different codes po? Thank u po.
Hello Emir and thank you for the videos....can l please get a clarification on the codes, the omitted doses at the back of the chart is only for those coded 10 right not all other codes right?
I have a question. Are we not supposed to write date and signature after admistering a drug. Why are we putting only a signature yet on top they say write date and signature. Please help
Hi... thank you so much...i have a doubt.if pt is allergic with pencillin,so we can't administer co amoxyclav,then which code i suppose to write.is it code 6 prescription incorrect or code 10....
Both codes 6 and 10 are correct. If you are writing code 10, you need to complete the last page of the drug chart and document what that means. Good luck
quick question In the implementation station if you have levothyroxine prescribed 100 mcg in stat and once only meds and you also have it prescribed in regular meds section same dose(100mcg) both due at your medication time in a post operation case scenario for a person who history of hypothyroidism...what is the best course of action?
Emer, i have question, if a patient is allergic to penicillin and was prescribed with clarithromycin, is it ok to proceed and give the medication when its due or is it better to code it as 10 then escalate it to the doctor.
Hi, clarithromycin is an antibiotic; however, it belongs to a different drug class. Please administer it if the prescription is correct and due your time. Best of luck ❤️
Hello sir, just for a clarification Lang po. When documenting the meds you’ve given, do we need to write your signature or un full name? Then sa date po is it the real date of the exam not Today for example 12/06/2023?
Hi sir for regular medicines that has no durations just - /dash on it can i assumed this is on going medication and verbalised it as duration is on going?
You are not supposed to put initials the drug chart is asking for a date and signature so following instructions is very important otherwise doing the opposite is going to be a fail
Hi Fatma. So far out of more than 400 students that i had everyone passed implementation station by only writing the initials. Remember on the second page of this document you have to put your full name, signature and initials. Goodluck on your exams ❤️❤️❤️
Please bear in mind that PRN has no time. Obviously, you will only give it if the patient needs it and if it's due. Writing a code means omission. Best of luck
Hello Sir! I cannot seem to find Mariana’s case in the link that you sent? Can you give me a specific link? I want to print it too. Thanks so much Sir!
clarify me: In implementation, 1️⃣ Start day: Today Finish date: +7days Duration: 7 day Will you give medication? 2️⃣ Start date: Today Finish date: +7 days Duration: 8 day will you give medication? 3️⃣ Start date : Today Finish date: +7 days Duration: 6 day will you give medication?

Amazing thank you so much, this is exactly what we needed for OSCE.

Emer i hope you are well. I wanted to clarify if i gave the levothyroxine OD in the stat dose and it is in the regular medication also, am i just gonna code it 5 and sign and put the time i've given the stat dose?
hello, after administering medication, does it matter if I put my signature instead of initial? or I should only use initial?
Please what if paracetamol is on the stat dose and you have already given and co-codamol is also prescribed as a regular medication are we going to give the cocodamol
Hi Diego so a friend had her osce exam and was given cocodamol 30/500 as the dose to be administered and the medication she had at hand was also 30/500 but when her results came it stated that she made a drug error as she gave just one tablet which makes it an under dose though the patient’s weight was more than 50 kg.

Question, if the ‘as needed’ medication do not have start date, is it a valid prescription? Thanks!
Hello, if I have a paracetamol in a regular medication and my pt doesn't have any pain should I adminster it or omit it in a regular med thank you
Good noon, I have a doubt, if a patient took paracetamol at 5 am as stat dose,and it is due for 8 am as regular meds .I am not supposed to give that because there should be 4 hrs difference between each intake . So what code I will put ? 5 or 10?

In the community drug chart 1st drug was paracetamol it was administered,2nd drug the. Frequency column it mentioned as required,can we administrr if the pt is on pain?
Sir, do we need to read the whole medication prescription for example sertraline if it is not due in my time? Thanks po.
Do we need to put a code for omitted drug on community drug chart? thank you :)
Hi Emer! Very helpful videos, can you please provide an example of reason for delay medications? Under the omitted doses of medicine and delayed doses. Thank you!

Probably in one of the webinars we could do that. On the exam you have an Ipad with an app similar to a bnf so could access it anytime. Best of luck

definitely not- for regular medications start date will tell you when to start the 💊 . Good luck
