Assessment of students' experiences in technical procedures in a medical clerkship.

Abstract:

:This study was designed to provide some insight into the manner and degree of students' acquisition of practical skills. One hundred and fifty-two of a total of 166 students in a medical clerkship during the first clinical year answered a questionnaire. The questionnaire contained fifty-eight different laboratory tests and technical procedures. The study revealed deficiencies in the teaching programme. On the average the students had been exposed to 19.4 procedures during their 13-week clerkship. We found no differences according to sex or age. Fourteen skills were considered mandatory. The mean result was 62% for these procedures. Urine analysis and participating in evening rounds gained best scores, while test for blood in faeces and discussing insulin dosage had the lowest scores, 14% and 10% respectively. In order to increase the amount of exposure to practical skills, some improvements in the teaching programme are suggested.
