Re: BMJ SJT Questions

As you asking for the BMJ Sequential Judgement questions here I am giving you the list of questions of the BMJ Sequential Judgement the question is given below :


Question:

A patient attends the the Emergency department where you are working as a foundation year 2 doctor.

He has been involved in a dispute with a stranger, who stabbed him in the leg with a kitchen knife. Fortunately, the knife wound has not injured any important neurovascular structures. He states that he does not want you to talk to the police about what has happened and claims that he does not know his attacker.

After you have acted, make sure you let the supervising the Emergency department consultant know what steps you have taken
Discuss the case with the the Emergency department consultant before acting
Do not report the incident to the police as doing so would breach the patient's confidentiality
