Clinical practice 6th year
A.A. 2020/2021
Obiettivi formativi
The clinical practice course is organized along 3 semesters (1st and 2nd sem 5° year and 1st sem 6° year) and integrates several disciplines to provide the students with conceptual tools to properly manage major clinical presenting problems. The 6° year module integrates Internal medicine and General surgery with Exercise and Sport Medicine, General psychology and Medical statistics. Coherently with the first module of the course held in the 5th year,in the 6 year
Starting from a complex cases the differential diagnosis and the therapeutic aspects are addressed. By integrating the different discipines students are trained to identify the most appropriate clinical and diagnostic tests to formulate a correct diagnosis and start planning the appropriate treatment. The Exercise and Sport Medicine Module provides the students with conceptual tools to introduce lifestyle intervention programs (with particular focus on physical exercise and nutrition) to foster health/wellbeing and to prevent/treat major chronic non communicable diseases. Medical Statistic introduces the students to Methodology of clinical research: how to write and present a clinical research protocol. The General Psychology module focuses on the concept of patients' adherence, cultural and gender differences in patients management and care givers in health management.

Prerequisiti
To attend the Clinical Practice course, students must have already passed all the exams of the first and second year (Fundamentals of Basic Sciences, Cells, Molecules and Genes 1 and 2, Human Body, Functions and Mechanisms of Diseases).
Modalità di verifica dell’apprendimento e criteri di valutazione
The Clinical Practice exam is organized as a combination of written, practical and oral examinations. Final formal examination may be preceded by an intermediate evaluation test of General Surgery at the end of the 5th year. Also reviews and discussion on medical literature and/or specific clinical research topics could concur to the evaluation either at intermediate or final stage.
· Written test: it is a multiple choice test, and focuses all the discipline of the 5th and 6th year courses of Clinical Practice, but Internal Medicine. Surgery and Biostatistics. Multiple choices Q&A questionnaire will be used. The questionnaire is prepared on the slides presented at the frontal lessons (uploaded in the University website for student access) and on the official textbooks.
Each question has 4 answers, and each answer can be true or false. The passing threshold is the 75% of all answers, with at least one correct question (all answers in the question) in each module. Once passed, the written test is valid for the next three years. Either the teaching staff and/or the IMS office will inform the students about the results of the written test.
Biostatistics assessment is based on the evaluation of a presentation of the work conducted during the practical activities.
Practical test: it evaluates the practical skills acquired by the students, and consists in a circuit of stations, in which students are examined on a simulated patient. Once passed, the practical test is valid for the next three years.
Oral test: When students pass both the written and the practical tests, they are allowed to take the oral examination of Internal Medicine and General Surgery. The final mark is the average of the two marks obtained in Internal Medicine and in General Surgery, weighted by the number of credits of each discipline.
The exam is deemed to be passed successfully if the final grade is equal to or higher than 18/30. In the event of a full grade (30/30) honors (lode) may be granted with the consent of all the professors.
Registration to the exam through SIFA is mandatory.
