05Thinking through a case
Thinking through a case.
Much of what we learn happens at the bedside, working through a patient one finding at a time. Here is a teaching case: a 67-year-old arrives at the Brampton Civic emergency department, short of breath. Step through it the way a resident would.
What we know so far
Start with the history...
Working differential
Illustrative
- Acute decompensated heart failure
- Acute coronary syndrome
- Pulmonary embolism
- Community-acquired pneumonia
- COPD exacerbation
Bars show a teaching sketch of how the resident's weighting shifts. Not a clinical tool.
Resident's reasoning
We learn this the only way it can be learned: one patient at a time.

Weakness and a slow pulse on a Monday morning
Composite teaching case. Not a real patient.
› History
A 72-year-old presents to the emergency department with two days of generalized weakness and one episode of near-syncope. Background: type 2 diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease (baseline creatinine 160 µmol/L), and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Two weeks ago spironolactone was added to ramipril. Over the weekend the patient had vomiting and diarrhea and kept taking all medications. No chest pain.

11Our building
Where we learn.
Our school lives in the former Bramalea Civic Centre, a 1972 brutalist landmark at 150 Central Park Drive. Diamond Schmitt, with Indigenous-owned Two Row Architect, clad the original columns in wood evoking the pines of Chinguacousy Park and renewed a four-storey atrium.
