EP129 - Mastering Migraine Management

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. The AMC Handbook is the intellectual property of the Australian Medical Council. To access the official material, please visit the AMC website. This episode outlines a clinical case study involving a 30-year-old schoolteacher experiencing recurring migraines. The primary purpose is to assess a medical candidate's ability to diagnose, manage, and communicate effectively with the patient. It details the patient's symptoms, past medical history, and the results of a normal CT scan, which ruled out more serious conditions like a brain tumour. The case emphasises patient education and the comprehensive management of migraines, including acute treatment strategies, preventative therapies, and lifestyle adjustments, while also highlighting key questions a patient might ask and potential critical errors a candidate could make.#AMC #OSCE #ClinicalReasoning #MedicalEducation #IMGs #AustralianMedicalCouncil #MigraineAwareness #HeadacheRelief #CTScan #MigraineTreatment #PreventiveCare #ChronicPain #Wellness
