A 47-yr-old teacher, Ms. Heidi Fox comes to see you in A&E. She seems exhausted and tired with dark circles under her eyes. She tells you that since she returned from Senegal 5 days ago she has been suffering from diffuse headaches on and off. She has had temperatures up to 39.6°C rectally, but overall with great undulation. Her GP prescribed Paracetamol which did not help at all. He also took blood and she shows you the results:
(Normal values in parenthesis):
Haemoglobin 9.5 g/dl (12-16)Erythrocytes 3.8 T/l (3.9-5.3)Haematocrit 35% (35-47)MCV 92 fl (78-98)MCH 32 pg (28-34)Leucocytes 2.4 G/l (4-11)Platelets 75 G/l (150-400)Sodium 141 mmol/l (135-150)Potassium 4.4 mmol/l (3.5-5.5)Creatinine 1.8 mg/dlGPT 98 U/L (5-19)GOT 76 U/l (5-15)GGT 80 U/l (<28)LDH 440 U/l (80-240)Bilirubin 3.2 mg/dl (<1.0)TPZ (Quick) 85% (70-100)aPTT 25 s (20-35)
Because she has been to Senegal you ask a few more questions and Mrs. Fox says that she had shots for yellow fever and hepatitis and took malaria prophylaxis (Chloroquin).
You perform a blood film and Malaria tropica with a parasite density of >2 percent is diagnosed. Due to the laboratory findings this is classified as complicated malaria.
Mrs. Fox is transferred to ICU and started on i.v. quinine and doxycycline.

• Allows real choices that make a difference
• Learning from having to make a choice
• Learning from the consequences

• Realistic
• Related to learning objectives
• Cued by text
• Must require thought by player or players
