Practical examination – OSPE (Objective structured practical examination)
Total marks = 80 marks
No marks for record in university practical exam
Practical exam marks to be divided as follows
Four Procedural stations = 40 marks
20 Response stations = 40 marks
Procedural stations:
Four stations of 15 minutes each (Questions can be asked during the procedure)
1. Peripheral smear preparation and staining
2. Blood grouping
3. Urine examination (including sediments shown as charts)
4. Peripheral smear reporting (one out of the following)
a. Microcytic hypochromic anemia
b. Neutrophilia
c. Eosinophilia
d. Acute leukemia
e. Chronic myeloid leukemia
Response stations:
20 stations of 3 minutes each
1. Gross specimens – 4 nos.
2. Histopathology slides – 4 nos.
3. Hematology slides – 2 nos.
4. Cytology slide – 1 no.
(30% of the above should be in Clinico pathological correlation format i.e. 3 nos. in
CPC)
5. Instruments – 1 nos.
6. Charts – 5 nos.
, 7. CBC histogram – 1 no.
8. Clinical Pathology test interpretation – 1 no.
9. Correlative exercise with history (Specimens / slides combination) – 1 no.
