Great paces videos, definitely necessary for paces. Good question bank for part 1 and 2

It was very useful
Especially the mock exams

Dark theme!!!
Didn’t find it comfortable using Pastest at night as I kept straining my eyes.
Would appreciate if a dark theme was included in the settings.
Now the app in general: I recommend.
Quick read if you’re on the go. Good information and questions are similar to exam.

Excellent very useful

Highly recommended. Moreover practice is essence to pass PACES

Alot of people already shared their thoughts on the question bank and how similar it is to the real exam, however, I would like to commend the app's designers on their job on making a beautiful and easy to use UI. Great user experience.

The correct answer is Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

Explanation:

Hyposplenism, which refers to a reduced function of the spleen, can occur in several conditions:

Sickle-cell anemia: Patients can develop functional hyposplenism or autosplenectomy due to repeated splenic infarctions.
Liver cirrhosis: Although cirrhosis is often associated with splenomegaly (enlarged spleen), advanced cases can lead to splenic dysfunction.
Coeliac disease: This condition is associated with hyposplenism due to an unclear mechanism, potentially related to autoimmunity or malabsorption.
Splenectomy: Removal of the spleen directly causes hyposplenism.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is typically associated with splenomegaly rather than hyposplenism.

The scenario described in the image is suggestive of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH). The classic triad of symptoms in NPH includes:

Gait disturbance (gait apraxia)
Cognitive impairment (often memory loss)
Urinary incontinence
The imaging (CT head showing slight ventricular enlargement) and the opening pressure of 21 cm of water from the lumbar puncture further support this diagnosis.

The most appropriate initial intervention in this case would be therapeutic lumbar puncture (Option E). This procedure can temporarily relieve symptoms by removing excess cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and it is often used as both a diagnostic and therapeutic measure in suspected NPH. If the patient shows improvement after the lumbar puncture, it may confirm the diagnosis and indicate that the patient might benefit from a more permanent solution like shunt insertion.

The reason therapeutic lumbar puncture (E) is the most appropriate initial intervention over shunt insertion (D) is that it serves as both a diagnostic and therapeutic tool in cases of suspected Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH).

Key Points:

Therapeutic Lumbar Puncture (E):

It's a minimally invasive procedure that can temporarily relieve symptoms by reducing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure.
Improvement in symptoms after the lumbar puncture helps confirm the diagnosis of NPH.
It helps predict whether a more invasive procedure, like shunt insertion, will be beneficial.
Shunt Insertion (D):

While a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt can provide a long-term solution by diverting excess CSF, it is a surgical procedure with associated risks.
The decision to insert a shunt is typically made after a therapeutic lumbar puncture has demonstrated symptom improvement, indicating that the patient is likely to benefit from shunting.
Summary: The therapeutic lumbar puncture is the first step to confirm the diagnosis and to determine if shunt insertion would be effective. If the patient improves after the lumbar puncture, then shunt insertion becomes the appropriate next step.

Write a review for pass test in which write that give answer and explanation of each mcqs just beneath them in past papers and add as paper is of 200 mcqs kindly provide us all 200 mcqs in eac

I appreciate to add the detailed answers and explanations directly beneath each MCQ in the past papers. This feature will be incredibly helpful for reinforcing my understanding of the material and for immediate feedback on why a particular answer is correct or incorrect.

However, as the paper consists of 200 MCQs, it would be highly beneficial if all 200 questions were included in each paper provided. This would offer a more comprehensive practice experience and ensure full coverage of the exam content.

Additionally, it would be great if new papers could be added more frequently. Having fresh content regularly available would enhance our preparation and allow for continuous practice with updated material.

Thank you for your hard work, and I hope these suggestions can be implemented soon to make Pass Test even more effective for all users.

MRCP PACES COURSE IS HELPFULL.
But still needed to cover more cases

I used Pastest as a student Physician Associate and found it an excellent resource for revision. Even though some questions were more difficult than my intended scope of practice, I enjoyed the challenge. Would certainly recommend it to any student or graduate for revision and refreshing knowledge.

All new events are included in it .
I liked it.
Because it make me more confident than before. Using it holds you updated with the medical practice.

Used pastest for MRCPCH FOP and TAS and felt it really prepared me for both. App helped me to practice wherever and whenever I could. Explanations of answers plus general teaching pages really helped to solidify key points. Passed both exams first time and will use for AKP next!

excellent reference for preparing to MRCP part 1, 2 and paces

Questions are upto the examination format. Answers and explanations are almost correct in 99% cases.
It is more than enough to read , solve and clarify from the explanations for passing the MRCP part 1. I would suggest to practice all questions twice.
Second time revision will take less time and will make students adequate to appear in the examination.

Good app
Able to download questions offline which was very helpful when doing revision whilst traveling

A really great app and user-friendly.I have just taken and passe LDS part 1 Alhamdulilah .The app had different variety of questions some of which were in the exam or at least it had the same scenario idea.I recommend solving it 3 months before the exam .I think it should intergrate more feedback questions

great tool to help for MRCP preparation, Reccomended

It’s really useful and systematic in term of helping in my revision, definitely recommended.

Great platform to revise throughout my whole MRCP exams.I owe my success to Pastest.
