Facts and Assertiveness Between Medical Apprentices

Abstract

Background: To make basic sciences easy and accessible to enhance their clinical importance. Objective: basic sciences in medical education have a pivotal role in forming foundation of a medical students. However, students have become disinterested because of the inaccessibility of the study system and methods. Through this study, an attempt was made to highlight this problem and find a suitable solution.

Material and Methods: Data were collected from 265 students. Data were collected using a questionnaire that was analyzed using SPSS version 20 (IBM, Chicago, IL, USA). Descriptive statistics were used for categorical and quantitative variables. The total scores on each subscale pertaining to basic science subjects, anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry were calculated.

Results: Medical students reported mixed responses on the clinical significance of anatomy (moderate) and physiology (low to moderate), while biochemistry was reported to be the most clinically useful. More than 50% of the respondents considered the syllabus of the basic medical sciences to be vast, in contrast to their limited clinical usefulness. Traditional teaching of basic medical sciences as individual disciplines, unrelated to each other and other clinical subjects (7), made them very difficult to recall and applicable in clinical years of the students, included in our survey

Conclusion: The majority of the respondents in our study were of the view that the knowledge of basic medical sciences is very important in order to become a good clinician, but the majority also thought that only working knowledge of these subjects is required in clinical years. Therefore, there is no need for deeper understanding of structures and functions.
