Introduction to ECOS - OSCE - Clinical Skills - Scenario

The ECOS - OSCE - Clinical Skills - Scenario system is designed to create detailed, structured scenarios for Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs). These scenarios, also known as ECOS (Évaluations Cliniques Objectives Structurées), are used to assess clinical skills in medical education, ensuring that students and trainees are evaluated in a realistic and standardized manner. The system can generate scenarios based on specific clinical situations or symptoms using a Situation Starting Point (SSP) approach. For example, an SSP might involve a patient presenting with chest pain, and the system will develop a comprehensive scenario, including patient history, symptoms, potential diagnoses, and instructions for the medical student. The ultimate goal is to provide a thorough and consistent evaluation framework that can be used in medical training to enhance the learning and assessment process.

Main Functions of ECOS - OSCE - Clinical Skills - Scenario

  • Scenario Creation

    Example Example

    Creating a scenario where a patient presents with abdominal pain.

    Example Scenario

    The system would generate a detailed scenario including the patient's history, physical examination findings, and possible diagnoses. For instance, if the SSP chosen is 'abdominal pain,' the system would detail the history of the present illness, past medical history, and specific examination findings like tenderness in the right lower quadrant, suggesting possible appendicitis.

  • Evaluation Grid Creation

    Example Example

    Creating an evaluation grid for assessing clinical skills in a scenario involving chest pain.

    Example Scenario

    The system would produce a detailed evaluation grid with criteria for assessing history taking, physical examination, and clinical reasoning. For example, in a chest pain scenario, the grid might include criteria like assessing the quality and radiation of the pain, checking for associated symptoms such as shortness of breath, and evaluating the student's ability to propose appropriate differential diagnoses.

  • Document Export

    Example Example

    Exporting the scenario and evaluation grid to a .docx document for use in an OSCE.

    Example Scenario

    Once a scenario and its corresponding evaluation grid are created, the system can compile the information into a structured .docx document. This document would include all details necessary for the OSCE, such as patient history, examination findings, evaluation criteria, and instructions for the student, ensuring a standardized assessment process.

Ideal Users of ECOS - OSCE - Clinical Skills - Scenario

  • Medical Educators

    Medical educators who design and conduct OSCEs would benefit from using this system. It allows them to create realistic clinical scenarios and standardized evaluation criteria, ensuring that all students are assessed consistently. The system also saves time by automating the scenario creation process and providing ready-to-use evaluation grids.

  • Medical Students and Trainees

    Medical students and trainees preparing for OSCEs can use the system to practice with realistic scenarios. By engaging with these scenarios, they can improve their clinical reasoning, history taking, and examination skills. The detailed evaluation grids also help them understand the key competencies they need to develop.
