29. Do you see a role for technology in helping you learn about one patient's experience? “ You've got so many different commitments at medical school so it would allow you to follow the patient from afar…”

30. Would it be useful, contrasting patients? “ Yes...several different virtual patients... ...same condition ... different presentation” “ You could see if there is anyone in the family... is one member's ill health affecting other family members in some way?”

31. Any changes or additions that you think would be important? “ The patient's signs... this is what I heard... click on this... crackles” “ Questions and answers... instantaneous ones so that as soon as you click you know the answer straight away.”
