Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Training
  • Clinical Assessment

Background:

  • Oral presentation of the clinical long case is a critical skill in surgical training.
  • Assessment is often subjective, influenced by examiners' preferences and varied understanding.
  • Lack of standardized guidelines complicates evaluation and trainee feedback.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and analyze differing opinions and misconceptions among surgical trainers regarding the oral presentation of the clinical long case.
  • To provide a basis for improving the understanding and assessment of this crucial examination component.
  • To address inconsistencies in evaluating residents and clinical students.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire-based survey was conducted among surgeons and trainers during West African College of Surgeons fellowship examinations.
  • Participants were drawn from 14 centers across Nigeria and Ghana.
  • Eligibility required participants to be surgeons, trainers, and to complete all survey questions.

Main Results:

  • Fifty percent (36/72) of returned questionnaires were analyzed, with respondents including examiners and professors.
  • A significant portion (58.3%) were aware of the "5Cs" (history of presenting complaint) and traditional methods, yet 22.2% were unaware of distinct presentation styles.
  • Many (30.6%) desired different presentation standards for postgraduates, often considered an "unwritten rule," with 47.2% teaching the "5Cs" despite not encountering it in literature.

Conclusions:

  • Examiners hold diverse views on the expected format of oral presentations for the clinical long case in surgical fellowship examinations.
  • These varying opinions directly impact expectations for residents and clinical students.
  • Standardization and consensus on formal oral presentation requirements are essential to mitigate subjectivity and bias in assessments.
