Unit description Unit description

This unit expands on your clinical knowledge and advances your understanding of the clinical disciplines of Musculoskeletal, Neurosciences and Ageing. Over a 10-week period, you will build your understanding of a range of clinical disciplines integrated with applied medical sciences and the social sciences relevant to health and disease. The unit uses a weekly thematic structure, common across all units in the session to provide a central focus for your learning. These themes represent conceptual understanding of the complexity of health; major mechanisms of diseases and important challenges of modern health care delivery. The unit incorporates an experiential learning component contextually focused on patient-centred health care delivered in the clinical disciplines of Musculoskeletal, Neurosciences and Ageing. The unit includes weekly lectures/seminars, case based learning sessions, clinical bedside tutorials, procedural skills sessions, as well as clinical placements. You are expected to use these learning opportunities to demonstrate significant progress toward the development of the 4 Macquarie MD Graduate Capabilities: Scientist and Scholar, Clinical Practitioner, Engaged Global Citizen and Professional, and the Entrustable Professional Activities, at a standard appropriate to end of Stage 1 of the Macquarie MD.

Important Academic Dates

Information about important academic dates including deadlines for withdrawing from units are available at https://www.mq.edu.au/study/calendar-of-dates

Learning Outcomes

On successful completion of this unit, you will be able to:

  • ULO1: Apply knowledge of relevant medical sciences, clinical presentations, scientific principles and mechanisms of disease to explain a variety of common or clinically-significant disease states, as well as how drugs and other treatments are used to manage or prevent disease in various population sub-groups (Capability 1: Scientist and Scholar).
  • ULO2: Identify questions and learning needs arising from clinical cases, and work individually or as part of a group to create appropriate responses to clinical scenarios relevant to musculoskeletal, neurosciences and ageing by evaluating evidence from a range of sources, including medical scientific literature (Capability 1: Scientist and Scholar).
  • ULO3: Elicit a concise and accurate medical history with real patients with common medical or surgical conditions. Identify relevant symptoms, recent and past medical history, medication, allergies and social history, and accurate physical examination identifying relevant abnormal signs (Capability 2: Clinical Practitioner).
  • ULO4: Summarise history and physical examination findings concisely and accurately in verbal or written form to peers or colleagues (Capability 2: Clinical Practitioner).
  • ULO5: Use sound clinical reasoning skills to derive diagnoses, investigations and basic management plans for common medical and surgical conditions, as relevant to musculoskeletal, neurosciences and ageing (Capability 2: Clinical Practitioner).
  • ULO6: Demonstrate basic procedural skills in a simulated or clinical environment (Capability 2: Clinical Practitioner).
  • ULO7: Identify and discuss, social, cultural and economic factors as well as the healthcare team and health system factors which may impact on healthcare and population health relevant to musculoskeletal, neurosciences and ageing (Capability 3: Engaged Global Citizen)
  • ULO8: Participate as an effective team player in tutorial groups and clinical environment with peers and clinical staff (Capability 4: Professional).
  • ULO9: Use feedback from teachers, clinicians, peers and patients, to inform self-evaluation and critical reflection (Capability 4: Professional).

General Assessment Information

Detailed information regarding the assessment for the Macquarie MD is available on the Macquarie MD Assessment 2020 Intake iLearn site. Further details for each assessment task will be available on iLearn.

Grading

In this unit two types of grading will be used, and a supervision recommendation will be given where a clinical assessment relates to a Stage 1 Entrustable Professional Activity (EPA). The clinical quiz will be graded numerically with a standardised mark out of 100, while the other assessments will be coarse graded. Coarse grades (P+, P, P-, F) will be assigned to the focused and generic MD Capability Aspects as well as overall task performance. The numeric marks for the examinations and overall coarse grade for the assessment task weighted according to their contribution will be used to calculate the overall unit aggregate. Unit outcomes, based on the unit aggregate, will be reported to the University using the standard Macquarie grades (High Distinction, Distinction, Credit, Pass, Fail). Because most assessment tasks in the unit are coarse graded, a single numerical grade (SNG) equivalent will be reported for each University grade. Both the numeric equivalents for the coarse grades used in the calculation of the unit aggregate and the conversion of the aggregate to a single SNG are available in the Macquarie MD Rules of Assessment and Progression document posted in the Policies and Guidelines section of the MDCU Doctor of Medicine Community iLearn site. 

All final grades in the Macquarie MD are reviewed by the MD Course Board and Faculty Assessment Committees and ratified by the FMHHS Faculty Board so therefore are not the sole responsibility of the Unit Convenor.

To pass this unit, students must demonstrate sufficient evidence of achievement of the learning outcomes, attempt all assessment tasks, meet any ungraded requirements which include professionalism, submission of sufficient number and satisfactory performance in Direct Observation of Procedural Skills (DOPS) and Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise (Mini-CEX) and achieve a unit aggregate of 50% or better.

Extensions for Assessment tasks

Applications for assessment task extensions must be submitted via www.ask.mq.edu.au. For further details please refer to the Special Consideration Policy available at https://students.mq.edu.au/study/my-study-program/special-consideration.

Professional Expectations

Professionalism is a key capability embedded in the Macquarie MD. Professional Behaviour Notifications (PBN) which can be a breach  (PBNB) or a commendation (PBNC) may be awarded. PBNs will be recorded in the student's portfolio. As part of developing professionalism, Macquarie MD students are expected to attend all small group interactive sessions including clinical, practical, laboratory and team-based learning activities. If attendance is deemed to be of concern, the student will be referred to the Faculty for remediation, subsequent monitoring, and recording in the portfolio. Similarly, as part of developing professionalism, Macquarie MD students are expected to submit all work by the due date. Late submission without prior approved extension will result in a professional behaviour notification-breach (PBNB) in the portfolio.
