For doctors managing undifferentiated patients on the acute take
You’re not an FY2 anymore.
So why are you still second-guessing your decisions on call?
Comprehensive acute medicine teaching taught through structured diagnostic reasoning frameworks – so you can think clearly under pressure.
Overview
For SCFs, Medical Registrars and IMTs
On-demand teaching + live case-based sessions
CPD-accredited acute medicine teaching
Built for real on-call decision-making
If you’re going to spend time on CPD, it should actually make your shifts easier.
It’s not knowledge, it’s how you apply it
Most doctors don’t struggle on the acute take because they lack knowledge.
They know the guidelines.
They’ve seen the conditions before.
They understand the textbook.
The difficulty starts when the patient doesn’t fit the pattern:
– The normal CXR with hypoxia
– The chest pain that isn’t ACS
– The “sepsis” with no clear source
– The patient who is just… unwell
That’s where hesitation creeps in.
That’s where decisions slow down.
That’s where diagnostic delay starts to happen.
And that gap is not about intelligence or effort.
It’s structural.
Because real patients don’t present as diagnoses.
They present as problems.
Join the Acute Medicine Course
You’re ready to improve your thinking.
Pattern recognition has its limits – you’re here because you’ve noticed this
Tell me if this sounds like you.
You’re not early-stage anymore, but some presentations still make you pause longer than you’d like.
You know what you should be thinking – but under pressure, it doesn’t always come together cleanly.
You can manage common cases, but atypical presentations disrupt your flow.
You don’t necessarily want more theory.
But you want a way to apply what you already know – quickly, safely, and consistently.
Join the Acute Medicine Course
Don’t wait for experience to develop your reasoning skills – start building it today.
You’re in the right place
This is where the Acute Medicine Course comes in.
The goal is simple:
To help you manage acute presentations with clarity and structure – even when the patient doesn’t fit the textbook.
This is comprehensive acute medicine teaching built around the presentations you actually see on call:
– Breathlessness
– Chest pain
– Sepsis
– Headache
– GI bleeding
– Falls
– Electrolyte disturbance
Each topic is taught using structured frameworks that organise your thinking in real time.
So instead of relying on memory, instinct, or pattern recognition alone,
you have a clear way to approach the patient in front of you.
Not just what to know.
But how to use it when it matters.
Built for real on-call decision-making – not textbook cases.
Patients arrive with symptoms, not diagnoses
Most medical teaching is organised by disease.
But the acute take doesn’t work like that.
Patients don’t arrive labelled – they arrive with symptoms:
– Breathlessness
– Chest pain
– Collapse
– Headache
And you are expected to bring everything together under pressure.
The Acute Medicine Course flips that.
It starts where the patient starts.
Each module is built around a real acute presentation – then organised into a structured framework you can actually use on shift.
Not to replace your clinical judgement.
But to give it structure.
Instead of asking:
“What is the diagnosis?”
You’ll learn to ask:
“Which pathway does this patient fit into – and what do I need to rule out?”
That shift alone changes how you approach the acute take.

Complete your learning
The Acute Take is More Than Just Three Presentations
If your goal is to improve a few core presentations, Standard is enough.
But the acute take is not just dyspnoea, chest pain, and sepsis.
It’s the headache that doesn’t fit migraine.
The fall with no clear cause.
The GI bleed that isn’t straightforward.
The electrolyte abnormality that doesn’t behave as expected.
If you are regularly responsible for undifferentiated patients on call,
you don’t need part of a system.
You need the full structure.
That’s what the Complete Course is built for.
With the Complete course, get 25 CPD points in one structured programme instead of trying to piece together learning across the year
The difference isn’t just more content.
It’s how you approach the shift.
Moving from:
“I think this is probably fine…”
To:
“I know what I’m considering, what I’ve ruled out, and what I need to do next.”
Across any acute presentation.

Dr Usman Malik
IMT Doctor
★★★★★
Case study and your frameworks are amazing!
| I really enjoy the framework style; it makes the logic behind decisions much clearer. I’ve seen similar styles in ALS/ATLS, but applying it specifically to medical presentations like this is quite refreshing. |
