Cards Against Paediatric Orthopaedics (Upper Limbs)
The aim of the game is to match up the History, Exam Findings and X-Ray for each patient case to their correct Diagnosis and Management Plan for a variety of paediatric upper limb presentations.
You can download a free PDF copy of this game by clicking the button below 👇 Just set your printer to print on BOTH sides of the paper (ideally in colour). We find they work well as a series of wipeable A5-sized laminated cards that we keep on the shop floor for some impromptu teaching when things aren't so busy! 🙂
How do I play?
- We recommend allowing 60-90 minutes per teaching session.
- Teams of 2-3 works best, although the cards can be used individually as a series of revision flashcards to test your own knowledge.
- Shuffle and spread out the cards for all teams to see and access.
- The aim is for participants to correctly match one card of each colour/type to form a complete patient case. Teams can also use the same cards if another team has chosen the same one.
- Points can be awarded for correctly identifying each card, and for explaining their choices. Bonus points can be awarded for a complete set. An answer key is provided in the pack to help facilitators match up the correct cards.
