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 scenario involving a 25-year-old university student who has self-harmed by cutting his wrist. The case details his current psychiatric condition, which includes active hallucinations, thought disorders, and denial of self-harm, leading to a diagnosis of acute psychosis. The primary purpose is to assess a candidate's ability to evaluate the patient's immediate risk of harm, propose appropriate treatment recommendations, and explain their reasoning for managing such a psychiatric emergency, especially given the patient's involuntary status and the potential need for inpatient admission or crisis team intervention.#AMC #OSCE #ClinicalReasoning #MedicalEducation #IMGs #AustralianMedicalCouncil #MentalHealthCrisis #AcutePsychosis #SelfHarm #UniversityStudent #PsychiatricCare #CrisisIntervention #InvoluntaryTreatment #MentalIllnessAwareness #Hallucinations #ThoughtDisorder #EmergencyMedicine #YoungAdultMentalHealth
