More Day 8

More details about yesterday - the suture clinic was awesome - the kids did very well with very little practice before they sutured on cadavers. The best med and vet suturers are top secret until the last day :-)


Yesterday afternoon the med students visited the hospital - very different from USA. This is good for the kids to see so they can appreciate what they have and where they live. The students were divided into teams of 7 and allowed to visit a variety of patients and perform a clinical history on each patient - great experience - this is NOT allowed in the USA. The patients are in wards, no private rooms - some visited the female ward, male ward, pediatrics, and OBGYN. Scott and Chase were phenomenal with their clinical history and diagnosis :-)

Last night each team worked on the computers to research and create a PowerPoint of their case. Tuesday, they will present those cases to the rest of the teams.
