وصف المادة (من الجامعة)

This is a student's Trauma and Orthopedics' Undergraduate Curriculum. It is an introductory course given as four weeks' clinical rotation offered to fifth year medical students. It describes the skills and objectives that should be achieved as an orthopedics student. This curriculum aims to provide the students with a comprehensive overview of the specialty of orthopedics. They will gain a better understanding of orthopedics as a surgical specialty and learn about patient care they will encounter in general practice, especially as a primary care physician as many outpatient visits include orthopedics concerns. The learning priorities for this clinical rotation are to gain insight and understanding of the most common presentations and conditions of the orthopedics cases to make the student more competent to recognize these common orthopedics conditions through an excellent clinical exposure by joining the highly qualified physicians in their clinics, as well as the orthopedics senior residents. It is anticipated that all students will have opportunities to enhance their skills in history taking and clinical examination. This will improve their recognition of symptoms and signs and formulation of an accurate differential diagnosis which is important to focus on the primary care management of common conditions and to understand when a patient should be referred to secondary care. The students are also required to present seminars that cover most of the orthopedics clinical conditions; these seminars are supervised by the consultants and the students should be actively involved in these clinical discussions, as part of their evaluation is based on these seminars presentation and discussion. The students are anticipated to participate actively in the morning report and bedside teaching. The end rotation exam is held every 2 months for 2 consecutive groups.
