Objective Structured Clinical Examination (EPUB)
authored by Jeyasankar Jeyanathan
In intensive care medicine (ICM) exams like the UK Final Fellowship of Intensive Care Medicine (FFICM) , the European Diploma of Intensive Care (EDIC) exam or the Australia and New Zealand Fellowship of the College of Intensive Care Medicine (CICM) , the objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) is now frequently used .
This book is a crucial resource for not only practicing for OSCEs in order to pass these tests , but also for exams in the fields of intensive care medicine in the United States and India . The OSCE is a type of test that asks the candidate to deliver specified knowledge in a condensed amount of time while adhering to a strict grading formula .
With the help of this book , candidates getting ready for an ICM OSCE can format their knowledge for this kind of test while practicing and rehearsing in a timed environment . The 60 OSCE stations include a wide range of subjects from previous tests covering the entire ICM curricula . At the height of an exam campaign , when time is of the essence , the mark schemes are provided in a concise , punctuated format that gives the candidate access to key information .
The five sets of OSCE tests are made to function as a 12-test set . Each set will include a variety of clinical cases that call for quick evaluation , diagnosis , suggestions for further research and management , as well as an exploration of pathophysiological concepts . In addition to standalone stations for ECG and radiological analysis , a number of data-interpretation technologies are integrated into clinical situations . Any candidate studying for an ICM exam should have this book in their toolbox as a vital preparation aid .
