Clinical experience of clerks and dressers: a three-year study of Birmingham medical students

DN Lockwood, LH Goldman and IC McManus

A survey of the clinical experience of junior medical clerks and surgical dressers on their first clinical attachment in the Birmingham University Teaching Hospitals was organized by students over a three-year period. A typical clinical student had performed basic clinical procedures such as putting up a drip, doing an ECG, bladder catheterization and seen a wide range of other procedures. Most students felt involved in the work of the firm, had clerked routine admissions, and regularly attended the firm's emergency admission night. Consultants on most firms were felt to be concerned about student progress. Students attached to district general hospitals gained a wider range of clinical experience than those at established teaching hospitals. Student-run audit is a useful way of monitoring the clinical experience gained by medical students.
