This podcast is based on clinical scenarios from the official AMC Handbook of Clinical Assessment published by the Australian Medical Council. All cases are used solely for study and discussion. We provide personal learning insights and clinical interpretations to support AMC candidates in developing their clinical reasoning skills.

This episode outlines a clinical case study focusing on a 30-year-old man diagnosed with plaque-type psoriasis, emphasising the management and patient communication aspects of this chronic skin condition. The case details the patient's symptoms, including scaly skin rash on various body parts, and highlights the progressive nature of his condition despite initial cream use. It also provides a comprehensive guide for medical professionals on how to explain the condition, address patient concerns, and manage the disease both in the short and long term, underscoring the importance of referral to a dermatologist and patient counselling due to the incurable but manageable nature of psoriasis.#AMC #OSCE #ClinicalReasoning #MedicalEducation #IMGs #AustralianMedicalCouncil #Psoriasis #ChronicSkinCondition #PlaquePsoriasis #SkinHealth #Dermatology #PsoriasisTreatment #SkinCareTips
