Dr. Sandip N Baheti, Dr. Darpan Maheshgauri

Abstract :

 INTRODUCTION:Early clinical exposure (ECE) can be an important and efficient factor in improving motivation and can 

be a great help in the recall of knowledge in medical students. But this early clinical exposure may create confusion 
because medical science is vast and there is integral involvement of all systems. It is difficult for student to correlate 
their knowledge in early stage. Early half way knowledge may prove to be dangerous. TO OVERCOME THIS DRAWBACK, WE HAVE FOUND OUT 
SYSTEMS:
A. Early Clinical Micro Exposure Actual 
B. Early Clinical Micro Exposure Observational 
C. Early Clinical Micro Exposure Simulated 
A. Students were allotted patients of variable BPs in the wards and asked to feel pulse and correlate them with BP.
B. Students were taken in the ICU to feel pulse of low BP & arrhythmias and correlate with the parameters on the monitors. 
C. Simulated patient of meralgia paresthetica was selected and students were asked to take history and examine.
Results: 80% rated it as excellent and 20% as a good and interesting way of learning.
Conclusion: A path starting from ECMiX and leading to ECMaX is judicial way of ECE.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:
1) Developing critical thinking and reasoning skill in STEPWISE manner by offering students opportunity of early clinical exposure to 
repeatedly apply their learning.
2) To overcome confusion which may occur due to early clinical exposure (ECE)
3) To observe and understand the application of basic sciences in STEPWISE manner
