Why this matters
Station 2 consultations often hinge on a smooth pivot: from focused history and requested findings into differential explanation and management without sounding disjointed or rehearsed.
What to focus on
- Use the first half to gather what changes management, not every theoretical detail.
- Request findings early enough to use them in your explanation.
- Finish with a safe management plan and an explicit check of patient concerns.
How TalkingCases fits this topic
TalkingCases is designed for the voice-compatible parts of PACES23: communication encounters and consultation encounters where you request findings and then use them in real-time reasoning.
Scope note: TalkingCases supports PACES23 consultation and communication preparation, but it does not replace standalone physical examination practice.
