OSCE stands for Objective Structured Clinical Examination.

Objective

Objective refers to scoring of multiple examiners in different stations resulting in a more objective score at the end of the OSCE.

OSCE scenarios and assessment forms should be standardised across multiple stations. Each station within an OSCE should focus on an area of clinical competence. Subjective scoring plus feedback takes place for each station will bring to the fore what a student does well and what areas a student has shortcomings. The overall score of multiple examiners therefore is ‘more objective’ and the feedback provided is the most powerful tool to progress student’s learning.

Structured

Structured refers to the standardised consecutive format and procedures of the time constrained station based exam.

Students should experience the same scenario within a station and each student must perform the same task within a fixed time duration. Each student should encounter the same level of difficulty and the same assessment form is used for each student.

Clinical

Clinical refers to the fact that clinical skills are being assessed during the OSCE and the encounter is very much clinically based.

An OSCE station represents clinical situations that reflect what happens within healthcare work settings. Each station should look to challenge students to apply their clinical knowledge and skills as they work through each scenario encountered.

Examination

Examination is self-explanatory.

An OSCE offers a reliable way to assess a student’s competence across a range of high stakes scenarios.

How is an OSCE implemented?

When setting up an OSCE the following aspects must be considered:

The number of stations to be used across the examination to create an OSCE circuit whereby a number of 15 – 18 stations is considered as ‘objective’. Students then rotate through a series of timed stations in sequential order.
At each station, students will have to work on a different clinical scenario. An example scenario may be: “A 44 year old man presents himself with a complaint of headaches. Obtain a complete history of this complaint”.
Each station often assesses multiple aspects of a student’s clinical competence across communication, clinical examination, medical procedures/prescription, exercise prescription, joint mobilization/manipulation techniques and interpretation of results.
Candidates or students are given information about the upcoming scenario before they enter a station and are allowed 2 minutes to prepare for the assessment. The information given to the candidate will outline the age and gender of the patient they are about to meet in the station and the medical complaint that they have.
The length of the station varies and depending on the institution running the OSCE, the station can last any length between 5 minutes and 15 minutes and even sometimes longer.
What is the pass mark for an OSCE?
The passmark for an OSCE is, in general, the average ‘observed’ score of each individual station. Depending on the university, the approach of calculating the OSCE score might differ. In the past few years, Schools of Medicine tend to use Borderline Regression Analysis (BRA) to, better than before, incorporate the degree of difficulty of the stations and the professional opinion of the examiners into the score. The pass mark is adjusted through BRA matching the Observed (raw) score with the Global Rating Score (Fail, Borderline, Pass, Good or Excellent) of the examiner. The pass score might move up or down depending on the BRA.
