Assessing the Consistency and Educational Benefits of Students' Clinical Experiences during an Ambulatory Care Internal Medicine Rotation.

Gruppen, Larry D.; And Others

Academic Medicine, v68 n9 p674-80 Sep 1993

Analysis of the internal medicine clinical rotations of 43 University of Michigan medical students revealed that students saw many kinds of medical problems but few instances of each and that there were wide gaps in exposure to some typical ambulatory care problems. Student skill gains did not correlate with problem types encountered. (MSE)
