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.

This episode outlines a simulated medical case for a 23-year-old woman experiencing vaginal bleeding after eight weeks of amenorrhea, who suspects she is pregnant. The scenario requires a medical candidate to diagnose and manage this patient, focusing on gathering relevant history, performing examinations, and advising on probable diagnoses like a threatened abortion (miscarriage). Key aspects include confirming pregnancy viability through ultrasound and understanding the implications of the patient's Rh-negative blood type, which may necessitate specific interventions like Anti-D immunoglobulin if a miscarriage occurs.
