CPX 702 Clinical Performance Examination


Credits: 1
The Clinical Performance Examination (CPX) is a required summative assessment of clinical and professional skills. It has been developed by a group of OHSU clinical faculty representing the core clinical experiences. The CPX consists of cases that mirror common problems students should be prepared to identify and manage following the completion of their core clinical experiences. In comparison with previous OSCEs or CSAs taken, this exam assesses a wider range of skills with each patient. Students encounter standardized patients in each scenario and students will be responsible for some or all of the following in each scenario: history taking, physical exam, patient-physician interaction, communication, and post-encounter assessment and planning.
