In this episode, Dr. Sham Mahmood announces the launch of a clinical education Telegram group to provide daily clinical education boosters and AKT preparation strategies. The first theme discussed is palpitations, with a focus on the common causes and the significance of ectopic burden. Dr Mahmood also provides tips on practising palpitations for the SCA exam and highlights factors that can contribute to palpitations. The episode concludes with a summary of the topics covered and an invitation to join the Telegram group.

Takeaways

– Join the clinical education Telegram group for daily clinical education boosters and AKT preparation strategies.
– Palpitations are a common problem in primary care, and the commonest cause is ectopic or extra-systole beats.
– The significance of ectopic burden in palpitations includes the potential link to underlying structural cardiac disease.
– When practising palpitations for the SCA exam, tailor the history to include or exclude differential diagnoses and consider the patient’s medications.
– Patient reactions to test results and their verbal and nonverbal cues can provide valuable information for creating a patient-centred management plan.
