This course involves clinical case discussions in small learning groups designed to facilitate the integration of medical knowledge and clinical skill in order for students to develop critical thinking, clinical reasoning and patient management skills. The course is designed to prepare students for evidence-based practice, emphasizing the processes of critical inquiry and analysis in a multidisciplinary forum and best practices in clinical measurements, interpretation of diagnostic reliability, validity, prediction and measures of clinically meaningful change. This course will prepare students to search, interpret, and evaluate the medical literature in order to maintain a critical, current, and operational knowledge of new medical findings and provide a basis for future evidence-based clinical work. The cases will focus on neurology, cardiology, pulmonology, musculoskeletal/orthopedics, autoimmune, infectious disease, dermatology, endocrine, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, gastrointestinal disorders, renal/genitourinary, immunology, oncology and hematology.
