🔍

Phase 2: Differential Diagnosis

Generate evidence-based differential diagnoses based on your subjective findings

🩺

Phase 3: Objective Testing

Perform comprehensive objective assessments including ROM, MMT, neurological, and special tests

🎯

Phase 4: Final Diagnosis

Make your final diagnosis based on all assessment findings and clinical reasoning

📋

Phase 5: Treatment Planning

Develop comprehensive treatment plans with goals and interventions for different phases of recovery

Phase 1: Subjective Assessment

1 Subjective

Phase 2: Differential Diagnosis

2 Differential

Generate Differential Diagnoses

📊 Scoring System:

✅ Correct Differential: +10 points each (up to 3 for full credit - 30 points max)
🤔 Reasonable Differential: +2 points each (clinically relevant but not in this case)
❌ Incorrect Differential: -5 points each
⚠️ Duplicate/Overlapping: Only the first instance is scored (e.g., "meniscus tear" and "medial meniscus tear" count as one)

💡 Tip: Aim for at least 3 correct differentials for maximum points. Focus on the most likely diagnoses based on the patient's presentation.

Based on the patient's presentation, enter potential differential diagnoses. Separate multiple diagnoses with commas.

Phase 3: Objective Testing

3 Objective

📊 Objective Testing Scoring:

🎯 Purpose: This phase is for gathering clinical data to support your diagnosis. While not directly scored, your findings inform your final diagnosis and treatment planning.

💡 Strategy: Perform tests that will help confirm or rule out your differential diagnoses. Focus on tests relevant to the patient's presentation.

⚠️ Note: You can test any body region, but results will be most relevant for the case's primary body region.

💡 Advanced: Manual Test Entry

For advanced users only. Use exact test names from the registry for accurate results.

Phase 4: Final Diagnosis

4 Diagnosis

Based on your assessment, what is your final diagnosis?

Consider the patient's symptoms, your differential diagnoses, and objective test results.

Scoring System:

✅ Correct (30 points): Exact or essentially equivalent diagnosis
⚠️ Partially Correct (15 points): Close but missing specificity (e.g., "meniscus tear" vs "medial meniscus tear")
❌ Incorrect (0 points): Wrong diagnosis or completely unrelated

Phase 5: Treatment Planning

5 Treatment

Treatment Planning Instructions

Based on your final diagnosis, select the appropriate treatment phase and choose relevant goals, interventions, and precautions.

Step 1: Treatment Decision

Based on your assessment, do you recommend treating this patient or referring them out?

Step 2: Treatment Planning

Create a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses both the acute/exacerbated phase and subacute phase of recovery:

📊 Scoring: Decision +10, Goals +3 each, Interventions +3 each (max 46 pts)

✅ Decision: +10 (correct) / -15 (incorrect)

🎯 Acute Phase Goals: +3 per goal (max 9 for 3 goals)

🎯 Subacute Phase Goals: +3 per goal (max 9 for 3 goals)

🔄 Acute Phase Interventions: +3 per intervention (max 9 for 3 interventions)

🔄 Subacute Phase Interventions: +3 per intervention (max 9 for 3 interventions)

🚨 Referral: +20 + 5 per reason

💡 Tip: Provide 3 appropriate goals + 3 appropriate interventions for EACH phase for full credit
