 2. SNIPPET ON OBJECTIVE STRUCTURED CLINICAL EVALUATION
Objective Structured clinical evaluation is a modern type of clinical/ performance based examination often used in health sciences. It is executed in a planned & structured way with
much attention on maintaining the objectivity of the examination.

1) FEATURES OF OSCE FACTORS INFLUENCING OSCE:

WHAT IS ASSESSED IN AN OSCE? Learning EXAMINER No of
outcomes and competencies No of examiner Examiner
 Stations are short Clinical Skills Purpose of exam Single examiner/station
 Highly focused Practical procedures The breath of focus of the examination Who are the Examiners
 Present structured mark scheme Patient Management The learning out comes to be Assessed ( Physical Examination/ Tutor/clinical instructor/Lectures
