This guide describes the framework, contents, methodology and general rules of the subject, in accordance with the current study plan. The final organization of the subject in terms of the number and size of groups, distribution in the calendar and exam dates, specific evaluation criteria and examination review, will be specified in each of the Hospital Teaching Units (UDH), which will explain this through their web pages and on the first day of class of each subject, through the professors responsible for the subject at the UDH.

For the current academic year, the professors designated by the Departments as responsible for the subject at Faculty and UDH level are:

Responsible department(s): Surgery

Ophthalmology service:

Head of Faculty: José García Arumí

Responsible UDH:

UDH Sant Pau: Zoraida del Campo Carrasco: zcampo@santpau.cat

UDH Vall D'Hebron: José Garcia-Arumí: jose.garciaarumi@vallhebron.cat

UDH Germans Trias i Pujol: Xavier Valldeperas Belmonte: xvalldeperas.germanstrias@gencat.cat

UDH Parc Taulí: Carlos Cuesta Acero: acero.cuesta@gmail.com

Otorhinolaryngology service:

Head of Faculty: Miquel Quer

Responsible UDH:

UDHSP: Miquel Quer Agustí: mquer@santpau.cat

UDHVH: Juan Lorente Guerrero: juan.lorente@uab.cat

UGHGTiP: Emilio Amilibia Cabeza: emilioamilibia@gmail.com

UDHPT: Rosa Rosell Ferrer: rrosell@tauli.cat

Exceptionally and according to the criteria of the responsible teaching staff, the available resources and the health situation of each moment in the different Teaching Units, part of the content corresponding to the theoretical lessons, practicals and seminars may be taught face-to-face or virtually.

Annotation: within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

For the practical part: 100%

The evaluation of clinical-practical knowledge will be specified in the program of each UDH according to its particularities.

This subject does not provide the single assessment system.

Attendance at practices is mandatory.

The maximum number of unexcused absences allowed for each specialty (ophthalmology and otorhinolaryngology) in order to evaluate the skills acquired during practical clinical teaching is 2.

Any other absence must be justified. More than 4 absences for each specialty (ophthalmology and otorhinolaryngology), regardless of the cause, prevents the student from being assessed.

The acquired clinical skills that can be evaluated will be:

· Ophthalmology: ability to prepare a clinical history, ability to quantify visual acuity and training in the basic handling of the slit lamp.

· Otorhinolaryngology: ability to prepare a clinical history, ability to perform an otoscopy, use the frontal light, perform an anterior rhinoscopy and an examination of the oral cavity and oropharynx. Ability to do an acumetry.

Final qualification

The final grade will be the weighted sum of both attendance checks and practical assessments: ophthalmology (50%) and otorhinolaryngology (50%). It will not be possible to take the average between both evaluations if a minimum score of 4/10 is not obtained in both specialties, even if the average grade is higher than 5. If it is not possible to take the average, the final grade will correspond to the value lowest quantitative among those obtained in the ophthalmology and otorhinolaryngology evaluations.

The expression of the same will be a numerical grade with a decimal from 0 to 10. The qualitative qualification will be: suspended, passed, notable, excellent and honors registration.
