PACES StationsFORMAT• EFFICIENT Examination i.e. QUICK whilst picking
up the SIGNS• CONCISE presentation – all the signs and other
features like cushingoid etc• Offer single DIAGNOSIS and differential • Investigations for THOSE diagnoses- know what
you would look for in each i.e. ECHO for aortic stenosis to look at area of valve orifice
• Management of the condition – MDT and holisitic- so for AS offer conservative- cardiac risk factor modification, medical- controlling hypertension and treating cardiac failure, surgical- options of valve repair/replacement
