Abstract:
The aim of this study was to evaluate students’ perception on effect of basic clinical skills (BCS) training in preclinical phase to national Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). Cross sectional study was conducted at Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS) during January and December 2013. After students finished national OSCE, they were asked to fill up questionnaire that comprised their perception on effect of BCS training in preclinical phase whether helpful to pass national OSCE. There were nine items questionnaire with Likert Scale of 1-5 (strongly disagree to strongly agree) and open question for comments. There were 50 students of total 53 students involved (response rate was 94.3%). Generally students’ perception on effect of BCS training to national OSCE was fair (3.53 ± 0.58). Students revealed that preclinical phase curriculum didn’t effect to their succeed to pass national OSCE, whilst physical examination training gained the highest score (3.38 ± 0.87 and 3.66 ± 0.74, respectively). Overall students’ perception on effect of BCS training to national OSCE was fair. In the future, we have to revise our preclinical phase curriculum that integrate with BCS training curriculum and enhance students’ clinical reasoning process to improve students’ performance in national OSCE.
