| Research Abstract |
A common teaching method adopted by many medical schools to teach the physical examination to their medical students is to begin by teaching them some 140 or so physical exam manoeuvres. Although students can master each examination manoeuvre through this learning process, it is not uncommon for them to have difficulty associating the manoeuvres with the meaning of specific clinical findings while sorting out a differential diagnosis. In our research, we developed a model teaching session for a Hypothesis-Driven Physical Examination (HDPE), in which the technical and cognitive aspects of physical examination are better integrated, and preliminary assessment (like OSCE) for HDPE.
