RESUMEN
Introduction : The Graduate Medical Education Regulation (GMR) 2019 in the curricular reforms recommends that “Shows How” level of the Miller's Pyramid is assessed through long case, Objective Structured Clinical Examination and Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise (Mini CEX). Objectives : 1. To utilize OSCE for assessing Field Visits carried out by Undergraduate medical students as formative assessment. 2. To find out the feasibility and effectiveness of Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) in Community Medicine. Method : An Educational Innovation Pilot Project was carried out in the department rdof Community Medicine of a Medical College in India. A pilot (18) of 3 MBBS students were assessed through Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) for epidemiological case study of malaria assigned to the author faculty. These students were also exposed to the oral viva. The analysis of the assessment was through assessment of codes of the procedure stations through checklists and mean scores of procedure and response stations. Qualitative analysis of emerging themes and quantitative analysis as likert scale were utilized for evaluation of the exam were used. Results : The mean score of all response stations was 5.1. Almost all students felt that OSCE was better than the conventional oral viva in assessing skills. Furthermore, almost all students and faculties suggested that it should gradually become a part of curriculum and scaled to entire and other batches with suggested modifications. The residents who participated as simulated cases found it to be a novel experience and a different kind of learning process. Conclusion : It is feasible to introduce OSCE with some modifications in assessing skills acquired in field visits in Community Case Management

Objective To promote the Institutional Review Board(IRB) construction and development via paying more attention to the detail management and providing better protection of subjects' rights and interests in ethical review of clinical trials and scientific research projects.Methods Assessment criteria were established according to the domestic and international laws and regulations on the management of ethical and scientific research project.Ethical site visit was performed on the 37 clinical trials/scientific research projects approved by IRB during the year 2012-2015.Results Clinical trials/scientific research projects were divided into tree types:the registered clinical trials,the post-marketing clinical trials and the researcher initiated scientific research project.All the types met with the following assessment criteria:satisfy the requirement of equipment,facilities and qualifications of drug preservation required for conducting clinical research;subjects were given compensation according to the protocol;informed consent were obtained.Among them,the registered clinical trials meet more criteria than other research types.Regarding to the standard of informed consent implementation,all types met with the following assessment criteria:all the subjects enrolled signed informed consent forms,informed consent forms are well documented;investigators and subjects/ the guardian signed the forms.However,during the site visit,some other criteria were also neglected more or less.Particularly,only few project recorded the consent process and time spots singed the forms.Conclusions Investigators should pay more attention to the activities and behaviors taken place during the research implementation process.Researchers and management staffs should pay attention to ethical detail management to guarantee better protection of subjects' rights and interests.

@# Personnel training is always a key element in community-based rehabilitation (CBR) work. For trainers as well as organizers,the aim of CBR trainings is to develop applied talents who are able to understand, practice and service in accordance with trainees' background,roles and responsibilities, needs of persons with disabilities. This paper reviewsed tentative approaches such as progressive training,participatory training, and field visit in the CBR training project developed by China Disabled Persons' Federation and Hong Kong Society for Rehabilitation. It finally puts forward some suggestions and references for further trainings on CBR or similar topic.
