Abstract:
We propose a new video system with four cameras aimed in different directions for use in objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) to 1) minimize the examiner's burden and 2) standardize the examiner's evaluation. The system consists of four charge-coupled device video cameras, several microphones, and a video tape recorder. The OSCE of each student was recorded with four cameras simultaneously aimed in different directions so that the student's performance could be viewed and evaluated at the examiner's convenience. Two trials for this system were undertaken at different times. More than 80% of those participating in the trials thought that this system was useful for examining the basic skills of medical students as part of the OSCE, and more than 70% thought that the system would increase educational efficacy. This system may improve the reliability and efficiency of OSCE.
