MRCP PACES Examination Findings On Request: How To Use Them Without Breaking Flow

Why this matters

When examination findings are supplied only after you ask, your station performance depends on timing and integration. Candidates need to request findings clearly and use them immediately in patient-facing reasoning.

What to focus on

• State what you would examine and why before asking for findings.
• Use the findings to refine your diagnosis and management rather than repeating the whole history.
• Keep the patient included when you explain what the findings mean.
