ABSTRACT

Traditionally the curriculums of medical residencies are based on an educational process that takes place within a passive environment and they focus their effectiveness on an excessive memorization. Contrary to this, the new educational approaches intend to develop, by means of a participative view, a critical attitude that recovers the experience. Thus the student, based on reflection, can select and produce his/her own knowledge and develop his/her own position in which discernment, proper judgment and conscientiousness allow him/her to solve the daily clinical problems, all of which results in a better clinical ability. Clinical ability develops under real-life situations that challenge the student’s own discernment. This paper develops an educational strategy that includes clinical cases and considers the mechanism of injury in the polytraumatized patient as a source of knowledge that allows us to assess the clinical ability. A measurement instrument was designed, with a Kidder Richardson reliability coefficient of 0.77. The educational strategy was applied to eleven Orthopedics residents of all levels. This paper reviews the results of this strategy, which show an improvement in the clinical ability; proves the usefulness of the measurement instrument, and analyzes the potential scope of this new educational approach.
