The most valuable resource on how to reproduce external physical signs is Barrow’s aforementioned handbook. In it you will find practical descriptions on how to teach your SPs to Clinical Skills: Acquiring the Basic Doctoring Skills 23 produce more than 50 physical manifestations of various medical conditions, including different ways that pain presents physically, as well as such seemingly impossible-to-simulate conditions as coma, various complex neurological conditions like Parkinson’s Disease, lid lag for hyperthyroidism, pneumothorax (collapsed lung on one side of the chest in which no breath sounds can be heard), carotid bruits (the sound created by a blockage of blood flow in the artery of the neck going to the brain), blindness, hyperventilation (without the SP getting dizzy), and various levels of muscle weakness.
These four clinical skill sets include r r r r history taking. physical examination. patient–physician interaction or communication skills. information sharing or patient education. LEARNING THE FOUR CLINICAL SKILL SETS In this chapter, I describe some specific ways to acquire enough understanding and expertise in the four clinical skill areas so that you can effectively train your SPs to handle any eventuality that might arise when they are working with the medical students. History Taking If you are coming to SP work without a background in medicine, before you can train the SPs to respond appropriately to the many ways that medical students approach a patient, it is important to learn how to take a complete medical history and how to interview a patient.
As professionals, SP coaches must have both the commitment and the coaching skills that it takes to assure that their SPs’ performances and completed checklists meet the highest standards. We make this commitment so that the medical students have a fair and realistic opportunity to demonstrate their clinical skills and so that their scores accurately reflect their true level of competence. Over the years within our discipline, a methodology has emerged to assure the coach’s success in helping SPs meet the goals of performance and accuracy.
