Course Description

This course builds upon the content of the previous courses, Clinical Reasoning I and 2. Clinical reasoning is the use of medical knowledge and skills, cognitive skills, and metacognitive skills to reach a decision about diagnosis or treatment in a clinical case, often in the face of uncertainty. Through a weekly, small-group-based examination of selected clinical cases and large-group interactive exercises, the course will guide medical students to develop a systematic approach to clinical reasoning, and to develop professional behaviors and attitudes, communication skills, and the consideration of the influence of cultural context and social determinants on health and health care.
