🫁 AIM OSPE/OSCE Lab — Respiratory-II Module | 3rd Year MBBS

About Course

AIM Respiratory-II OSPE/OSCE Lab is a practical, exam-focused course designed for 3rd Year MBBS students to master the essential Pharmacology, Forensic Medicine, Community/Family Medicine, Radiology, and clinical respiratory skills included in the KMU Respiratory-II module.

Students will practice 10 focused KMU-aligned OSPE/OSCE stations covering prescription writing for tuberculosis and asthma, hanging and strangulation models, mask identification and wearing technique, metered-dose inhaler use with spacer, spirometry interpretation, focused asthma/COPD assessment, and chest X-ray interpretation.

Course Content

💊 Station 1 — Prescription Writing for Pulmonary Tuberculosis
Learning Outcomes Write an appropriate prescription for a supplied case of pulmonary tuberculosis. Include the essential components of a complete prescription: drugs, dose, route, frequency and duration. Demonstrate rational and safe anti-tuberculous prescribing according to the supplied clinical scenario.

Prescription Writing for Pulmonary Tuberculosis

⚖️ Station 2 — Differentiation of Hanging and Strangulation on a Model
Learning Outcomes Examine the provided model and differentiate hanging from strangulation. Demonstrate the important distinguishing features on the model. State the relevant medico-legal significance of the demonstrated findings.

⚖️ Station 3 — Identification of Different Types of Hanging on a Model
Learning Outcomes Examine the provided model depicting hanging. Differentiate the demonstrated types of hanging. Identify the features on the model that support the classification.

😷 Station 4 — Identification and Correct Wearing of Respiratory Masks
Learning Outcomes Identify the different masks provided at the station. State their appropriate uses. Demonstrate the correct protocol for wearing the selected mask.

💨 Station 5 — Correct Use of a Metered-Dose Inhaler with Spacer
Learning Outcomes Demonstrate the correct stepwise use of a metered-dose inhaler with a spacer. Perform the steps in the correct sequence. Demonstrate appropriate coordination of inhaler actuation and inhalation using the spacer.

💊 Station 6 — Prescription Writing for Acute and Chronic Asthma
Learning Outcomes Write an appropriate prescription for a supplied acute or chronic asthma scenario. Select appropriate medication(s), dose, route, frequency and duration. Demonstrate safe and complete prescription-writing practice.

🚨 Station 7 — Prescription Writing for Status Asthmaticus
Learning Outcomes Recognize that the supplied scenario represents severe/status asthmaticus requiring emergency treatment. Write the appropriate emergency pharmacological prescription/order. Include appropriate drugs, routes and dosing instructions in a clear prescription format.

📈 Station 8 — Interpretation of Spirometry in Asthma/COPD
Learning Outcomes Interpret a provided spirometry report. Identify an obstructive ventilatory pattern when present. Relate the spirometry findings to the supplied asthma/COPD clinical scenario.

🩺 Station 9 — Focused Assessment of an Asthma/COPD Patient
Learning Outcomes Perform a focused routine assessment of a patient with asthma or COPD. Identify important findings and relevant complications/red flags. Determine when specialist referral is required.

🩻 Station 10 — Identification of Common Abnormalities on Chest X-Ray
Learning Outcomes Examine a provided chest radiograph systematically. Identify and describe the major radiological abnormality demonstrated. Correlate the radiological finding with the supplied respiratory clinical scenario.
