Cardiology Examination Explained - Clinical Skills OSCE Deep Dive - Dr Gill

Perhaps the longest video to date, cardiology examination, deep dive looks at explaining the steps of this examination, as you would be expected to complete in the average OSCE

It's important to highlight each medical school will have slightly different ways of doing/expecting OSCEs to be performed, so please refer to their protocol for your clinical assessments

For the cardiac examination, I will be looking at peripherals pulses, looking for signs of anaemia. assessing the jugular venous pulse. Checking the position of the apex beat. Auscultating of heart sounds and listening for cardiac murmurs.

Examining the abdomen for abdominal aortic aneurysms and listening for evidence of pulmonary oedema which might be associated with heart failure
This video demonstrates not merely the examination of the heart, but the complete cardiovascular system including its peripheries.

Please note that there is no ABSOLUTE way to perform a clinical examination. Different institutions and even clinicians will have differing degrees of variations - the aim is the effectively identify medically relevant signs.

This video has five other Cardiology system-focused videos associated with it:

The examination demonstrated here is derived from Macleods Clinical Examination - a recognised standard textbook for clinical skills. Some people may experience an ASMR effect from this video

I am a semi-retired doctor. These are really impressive videos. Dr Gill is not only knowledgeable but he explains clearly why each part of the examination is done and does so in an articulate and easily understood way. These videos should be compulsory viewing for all medical students - takes me back 40 years too! The ASMR is a bonus!

Who else thinks this is one of his best videos? It deserves so many more views.

I am currently studying for my cardiology exam and this video was posted just in time.
Extremely helpful and useful as always, thank you Dr. Gill!

These videos are a lovely resource for actors. I like how detailed you are so anybody can learn.

Another fantastic video as always! I may not be a med student but I really appreciate the work you put into these for them because it helps me learn a little along the way as a result. Having anxiety and sensory processing disorder I like knowing what to expect for certain examinations so that I can prepare myself and warn the medical professionals about any potential involuntary reactions my body might have towards them as a result of the depth of pressure their touch might have so I don’t accidentally injure them in the process. (If their touch is too light that’s when my body twitches, but anything else is fine).

I truly appreciate these videos and the work that goes into them. ❤️ I don’t need the information for my day to day life but I enjoy learning new things and you have a very soothing energy, Dr Gill 🫶🏻

[Draedaja]

I was right - definitely worth it. Very informative as always, Dr. Gill! Thank you for your continued efforts :)

27:39 ASMR! he's acknowledging us 😂

[anatole]

6:47 so normal finding should be a steady pulse? What is it indicating if it is "falling down"? Sorry if you already explained it, I just didn't understand...

[chadsmith]

Excellent job! Keep these longer videos coming👍

Bro is Dr. House M.D. but welcoming and heartwarming

[Geth-Who]

Fantastic stuff. I love that ASMR's a legit mnemonic for cardiology.

[tayzonday]

17:20 The sound of the table rising is jarring and impedes this video’s ASMR utility. Take it from me and my 100+ hour exam playlist 😆

Dr Gill here about to solve the Sunday night blues.

[torum]

Just finished my cardiac exam the other day. I feel very confident that I'll get a good score. There was only one question I know I got wrong because I couldn't remember how to spell a one of the arteries (womp womp), and I later looked it up in my notes. But everything else I'm confident I got right. I felt I should share lol. im not sure why

[knightstormbringer]

You're like the Bob Ross of clinical examinations.

[aikamsinghsandhu]

This was amazing useful! Exactly at the time I needed it

[optimistic]

Loved this, thank you! Would it be possible to have any new audio filed uploaded to Spotify? Totally understand if it's too much faff!
