Objectives
目標

The main objectives we aim to address in undergraduate ophthalmic training include:

我們旨在解決本科眼科培訓的主要目標包括:

  1. Attain competency in essential ophthalmic skills - especially in the context of a non-ophthalmic physician 獲得基本眼科技能的能力 - 特別是在非眼科醫師的情況下

  2. Attain action-oriented medical knowledge - to recognise salient symptoms and signs of ophthalmic emergencies for urgent referral and to appreciate common eye conditions 獲得以行動為導向的醫學知識 - 識別眼科緊急情況的突出症狀和體徵以進行緊急轉診,並了解常見的眼部疾病

  3. Appreciate the important public health concern and societal burden of potentially preventable blinding diseases 認識到潛在可預防的致盲疾病的重要公共衛生問題和社會負擔

  4. Appreciate the role of ophthalmologists in the medical community and to upload the highest standard of medical ethics 欣賞眼科醫生在醫學界的作用並上傳最高標準的醫學倫理

Horizontal and Vertical Integration
橫向和縱向整合

The curriculum is integrated horizontally (with other parts of the curriculum being delivered each year) and vertically (from one year to another in a progressive manner).

課程是橫向(每年提供課程的其他部分)和縱向(從一年到另一年以漸進方式)整合的。

Year 1 & 2 (System-based Blocks) 

1年級和2年級(基於系統的模塊)

In the first two years, ophthalmology is taught along with anatomy and physiology illustrating the clinical relevance and importance of basic science. An introduction to ophthalmic clinical skills, particularly visual acuity and pupil examination, will be conducted during the Endocrine and Reproductive Systems Block (ERS).

在前兩年,眼科與解剖學和生理學一起教授,說明基礎科學的臨床相關性和重要性。眼科臨床技能介紹,特別是視力和瞳孔檢查,將在內分泌和生殖系統模塊 (ERS) 期間進行。

Year 4 (Clinical Foundation Block and Junior Clerkship) 

4 年級(臨床基礎課程和Junior Clerkship)

The objective of the fourth year is to achieve competencies in ophthalmic clinical examination skills. The teaching is done in the form of skill laboratory during the integrated block. This will ensure that that the students are equipped with the skills and confidence to examine patients when they start their junior clerkship. They will be encouraged to utilise these skills during their junior clerkship. Furthermore, these basic ophthalmic examination skills can enable them to perform a more complete systemic evaluation of patients during their junior clerkship.

第四年的目標是獲得眼科臨床檢查技能的能力。在集成塊中以技能實驗室的形式進行教學。這將確保學生在開始擔任初級文員時具備檢查患者的技能和信心。將鼓勵他們在初級文員期間利用這些技能。此外,這些基本的眼科檢查技能可以使他們在初級職員期間對患者進行更完整的系統評估。

Two new whole class sessions (WCS) will be delivered to cover the ophthalmic manifestations of systemic diseases and common eye diseases to provide background information when the students encounter patients later in their clerkship.

兩個新的全班課程 (WCS) 將提供涵蓋全身性疾病和常見眼病的眼科表現,以便學生在以後遇到患者時提供背景信息。

Year 5 (Senior Clerkship)

5年級(Senior Clerkship)

Year 5 will give the students the greatest exposure to ophthalmology. The knowledge and clinical examination skills acquired in Years 1 to 4 provide the necessary background for the students to begin their clinical attachments in Year 5.

5 年級將給學生最大的眼科接觸機會。 1至4年級獲得的知識和臨床考試技能為學生在5年級開始臨床實習提供了必要的背景。

At the beginning of their senior clerkship, 6 WCS, in the form of didactic lectures will be introduced. The topics of these lectures are symptom based and enhance clinical application:

在他們的高級文員開始時,將以教學講座的形式介紹 6 WCS。這些講座的主題是基於症狀並增強臨床應用的:

 

  1. Red eyes 紅眼睛

  2. Trauma & Ocular emergency 創傷和眼部緊急情況

  3. Eye problems in children 兒童眼部問題

  4. Acute visual loss 急性視力喪失

  5. Gradual visual loss 逐漸喪失視力

  6. Flashing photopsia 閃爍的光暈

 

Furthermore, students will have 6 days of tutorials and clinical attachments. We plan to deliver part of the teaching based on a problem-based format. There are 5 clinical scenarios and the students are given resources to look for the information to answer the questions posed, before group discussions and guided discussions lead by a teacher. The clinical scenarios for the problem-based learning sessions are as follows:

此外,學生將有 6 天的教程和臨床實習。我們計劃以基於問題的形式提供部分教學。有 5 個臨床場景,在小組討論和教師引導的討論之前,學生會獲得資源來尋找信息來回答提出的問題。基於問題的學習課程的臨床場景如下:

 

  1. Red eyes 紅眼睛

  2. Acute and chronic visual loss 急性和慢性視力喪失

  3. Neuro-ophthalmology 神經眼科

  4. Eye problems in children 兒童眼部問題

  5. Ophthalmic manifestations of systemic disease 全身性疾病的眼科表現

 

Additionally, to better prepare our students for the digital age of telemedicine, we will have an additional tutorial on ‘A systematic approach to fundus photo interpretation’. Using 20 case scenarios, teachers will guide students to identify and report salient physical signs on fundus photos.

此外,為了讓我們的學生更好地為遠程醫療的數字時代做好準備,我們將提供關於“眼底照片解釋的系統方法”的額外教程。教師將通過20個案例場景,引導學生識別並報告眼底照片上的顯著體徵。

 

The students will be assigned to the ophthalmic clinic service of the Grantham Hospital Lo Fong Shiu Po Eye Centre. During the clinical attachments, students will be exposed to busy clinics, operating theatre and different advanced ophthalmic investigations. There will be structured pathway through the clinics to reinforce skills, with a particular focus on direct ophthalmoscopy. Students are expected to learn alongside a multi-disciplinary team including nurses and optometrists.

學生將被分配到格蘭咸醫院羅芳肇寶眼科中心的眼科診所服務。在臨床實習期間,學生將接觸繁忙的診所、手術室和各種高級眼科檢查。將有通過診所的結構化途徑來加強技能,特別是直接檢眼鏡檢查。學生將與包括護士和驗光師在內的多學科團隊一起學習。

 

We have also introduced a half day attachment to our 6-day clerkship at the HKU-Southern District Eye Screening Program with a focus on common eye diseases in the community. It would allow students to 1) practice direct ophthalmoscopy on subjects who give consent to this and would also allow 2) review of fundus photos with our teaching staff as well as 3) learn to interpret common ophthalmic investigations.

我們還在港大南區眼科檢查計劃的 6 天文員中引入了半天的實習,重點是社區中的常見眼病。它將允許學生 1) 對同意這樣做的受試者進行直接檢眼鏡檢查,還允許 2) 與我們的教學人員一起查看眼底照片以及 3) 學習解釋常見的眼科檢查。

Year 6

6年級

The WCS at the Final Revision block will be conducted in the form of an interactive slide quiz of common eye conditions and ophthalmic manifestations of systemic disease to prepare students for the final summative examination.

最終修訂版塊的 WCS 將以互動幻燈片測驗的形式進行,內容涉及常見眼部疾病和全身性疾病的眼科表現,為學生準備最終總結性考試。
