2. General and specific physiology of different organs that constitute the ORL.
3. General knowledge of histology and pathological anatomy related to the ORL
The student will acquire the commitment to preserve the confidentiality and professional secret of the data that he can have access due to the learning of health care services. The student has to maintain an ethical attitude.
The general objective is the study of the normal and pathological aspects of Otorhinolaryngology (ORL) for train the student to:
Identify the symptoms and signs of ORL diseases, and interpret the complementary tests properly (audiometry, electronystagmography, tympanometry)
Give a first diagnostic orientation, particularly of the most common diseases.
Recognize the symptoms and signs of alarm that indicate the need for urgent attention, both at the beginning, and during the evolution of the disease.
To know the key points about the etiology, clinical, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the diseases ORL, especially of most frequents both in primary medicine and in the hospital.
Become familiar to the diagnostic sequence of ORL diseases; understand the differential diagnosis process, making a rational use of the complementary explorations of the specialty.
Make adequate anamnesis and basic physical examination of the ORL patients, as well as to interpret the basic complementary tests.
Know the indications of medical and surgical treatments and obtain general information about the characteristics of an ORL patient both in the operating room, as well as in consultations

I. Evaluation of clinical-practical knowledge: 30% of the final qualification.
The evaluation of the clinical-practical knowledge will be specified in the program of each UDH according to its particularities. Attendance is mandatory.
The maximum number of absences allowed not justified in order to evaluate the competences acquired during the practical clinical teaching is 2. Any other absence must be justified. More than 4 absences, irrespective of the cause, it prevents the student from being evaluated (both practical and theoretical teaching).
Evaluation of the learning during this stay takes place in the following way:
1. Evaluation of the clinical examination (maximum 10 points)
The following competencies are evaluated with the presentation of 10 images on some of the following topics:
Interpreting images of otoscopy, interpretation of images of rhinoscopy, interpretation of images of laryngoscopy, interpretation of hearing aids, interpretation of tympanometry, interpretation of nystagmographies,
Interpretation of rhinomanometries, interpretation of specialty image studies, assessment of situations of emergency (epistaxis, high obstructive dyspnea, facial paralysis).
2. Evaluation of skills (maximum 10 points)
Perform otoscopy. Performing and interpreting an acumetry. Performing a laryngoscopy
(dummy). Performing a cricotirotomy (coniotomy) in dummy.
The final qualification of clinical-practical learning is the average of the clinical examination and the evaluation of the abilities.
The student who does not attend the clinical practices will be non-evaluable.
II. First evaluation of theoretical knowledge on clinical cases: 35% of the total grade
This first theoretical evaluation will consist of four clinical cases on which short questions will be asked. It fundamentally evaluates the knowledge about the most important diseases of the specialty and the clinical judgment of the student.
III. Second evaluation of theoretical knowledge with multiple choice questions: 35% of the total grade.
This second evaluation will have 50 questions type multiple choice with 5 possible answers and one of certain. The wrong answers are 0.25 negative points.
IV. Final grade
The final grade is the weighted average of the two theoretical knowledge assessments (35% each) of the clinical evaluation (30%).
Expression: Numeric note with a decimal, from 0 to 10.
Qualification: Insufficient, approved, remarkable, excellent, MH
You cannot make the average between the evaluations if you do not get a minimum score of 4/10 in the three tests.
In the case of not being able to do the average, the final grade will correspond to the lowest quantitative value among the obtained.
The student, who has not approved the partials and / or has not passed the practices, may submit the EVALUATION OF RECOVERY that contains a theoretical part and a practical part.
IV. Exams review system
The review of the exams will be done individually with the student, upon written request in the deadlines established.
V. EVALUATION OF RECOVERY
There will be a recovery evaluation for the students who have suspended. It will be an overall evaluation of the whole subject matter.
