Observational Studies

8.6K
Observational studies are a type of analytical study where researchers observe events without any interventions. In other words, the researcher does not influence the response variable or the experiment's outcome.
There are three types of observational studies – Prospective, retrospective, and cross-sectional.
Prospective Study
Prospective studies, also known as longitudinal or cohort studies, are carried out by collecting future data from groups sharing similar characteristics. One...

Longitudinal Research

12.0K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Principles of Disease Surveillance01:26

Principles of Disease Surveillance

103
Disease surveillance is the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of public health practice. This process integrates data dissemination to entities responsible for preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. Surveillance systems provide crucial information for action, helping public health authorities make informed decisions to manage and prevent outbreaks, ensure public safety, optimize...

Clinical Trials01:16

Clinical Trials

6.7K
Clinical trials are prospective experimental studies conducted on humans to determine the safety and efficacy of treatments, drugs, diet methods, and medical devices. Using statistics in clinical trials enables researchers to derive reasonable and accurate conclusions from the collected data, allowing them to make wise decisions in uncertain situations. In medical research, statistical methods are crucial for preventing errors and bias.
There are four phases in a clinical trial. A phase one...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Health Professions Education
  • Clinical Assessment

Background:

  • Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) are vital for health professions assessment.
  • Social distancing mandates have disrupted traditional, in-person OSCEs for large cohorts.
  • Existing remote OSCE literature primarily addresses small participant numbers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the implementation of a large-scale, remotely delivered OSCE.
  • To detail the planning, logistics, and participant experience of this remote assessment.
  • To provide a model for institutions facing similar challenges.

Main Methods:

  • A 2-station remote OSCE was designed for 361 candidates.
  • Extensive orientation and training were provided for candidates, examiners, and simulated patients.
  • Existing enterprise solutions (videoconferencing, survey, collaboration platforms) were utilized.
  • Additional time between candidates was scheduled to manage potential technical issues.

Main Results:

  • A large-scale remote OSCE was successfully delivered using common enterprise solutions.
  • The process involved detailed planning and participant preparation, including platform familiarity.
  • Examiner, simulated patient, and candidate perspectives were considered.

Conclusions:

  • Remote OSCE delivery for large student cohorts is feasible, even with a limited number of stations.
  • Careful planning, comprehensive training, and the use of existing technologies are key to success.
  • This approach offers a viable solution for clinical assessment in pandemic-affected environments.
