Background
Traditional assessment methods useful for
evaluation of knowledge, but not necessarily
of skills
Clinical skills represents amalgam of clinical
knowledge and communication/interpersonal
& problem-solving skills
Performance based assessment provides
unique vehicle for measurement of clinical
skills

OSCE - Objectives
All the candidates are presented with the
same test
![Page 5: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

OSCE – Clinical Examination
Test of performance of clinical skills: not a
test of knowledge
The candidates have to demonstrate their
skills
![Page 7: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Why we Need OSCE?
The desire to improve the quality of our
evaluation techniques and ever-changing
curriculum
Such a test would be very helpful & gives a
better evaluation of students therapeutic
decision-making & performance in therapeutic
courses
Realizing that skills domain is difficult to test
with either written examination format
![Page 8: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Defining OSCE
OSCE consists of multiple short (5-20 minute) stations
Each is examined on one-to-one basis with: examiner & real/simulated patient known as standardized patients (SP)
SP are persons trained to simulate a medical condition in a standardized way, each station requires the candidate to perform a specified task/series of tasks
Stations may be active or non-active
![Page 9: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
OSCE Stations
Based on therapeutic topics we will cover it in 442 PHCL
you will be dealing with 3 active stations
For each station you will be given 10 minutes
Each station will consist of a SP which in your case will
be an actor.
Before the station you will be given a form. Which
includes a task (e.g. recommend dose adjustment in
case of..) & instructions (e.g. a physician approaches
you with questions about adjusting medication in case
of….)
![Page 10: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
OSCE Stations
You will enter the station & introduce yourself to the SP
The SP will handle the case according to a specific
training
SPs follow a certain script to play with you during the
encounter
These scripts are written in details including patient
general look, cloths, emotions, and all negative and
positive answer
In order to evaluate you the SP and/or the OSCEs
examiners will be given a checklist to fill out while
observing you
![Page 11: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
OSCE Stations
These checklists are standardized to reduce
examiners' bias
On these checklists, there are station specific points
(i.e. points to cover the case in particular) & general
performance points (i.e. points to cover general things
like introducing yourself)
SPs will reveal information when specific related
questions are asked. For example, if you don't ask
about all their medication now and in the past, they
won’t give you the list of medications they are taking

Will you provide me with anything in the station?
The station form including: Your task & instructions
Some stations require having a drug information
handbook, in such situations we will provide for you
![Page 18: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
How will I move from a station to another?
Depending on the availability of SP you will enter the
room and wait in front each station
Each station will be marked with a number including
rest stations
You will be given clear instructions on how & where to
move during the exam
![Page 19: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
How will I move from a station to another?
You will now enter the first station
After 10 minutes a bill will ring you will all come out of
the stations, & a second bill will ring which means
move to the next station but do not enter, then a third
bill will ring which means enter the station
So there will be 3 bills
![Page 20: Objectives Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) By: Raniah Al-jaizani, M.Sc](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649ef45503460f94c07d33/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
