Full teaching script
  1. Today: Clinical reasoning and differential diagnosis. Our goal: Reason from presentation to plan.
  2. Take one idea at a time. Pause after each sentence; ask for repetition whenever you need it.
  3. Generate a differential early and widely, then narrow with discriminating features. Think anatomically and by system: vascular, infective, neoplastic, degenerative, inflammatory, congenital, autoimmune, traumatic, endocrine. Always ask what would kill this patient first, and exclude it first.
  4. Together: choose one example from the explanation and show how it works. What do you notice?
  5. Your turn: Build a differential for acute chest pain and rank by lethality.
  6. Reflect: what made sense, and what would you like explained differently?
