Title: Medicine and Horses: A Communications Model for the Doctor-Patient Relationship
Description:
A major challenge for medical students in clinical rotations and for physicians throughout their
careers is to conduct relationships with patients and colleagues in a manner that is professional,
sensitive, perceptive, confident, and authentic. Horses mirror and magnify the interpersonal
dynamics of the physician-patient relationship. Working with horses requires sensitivity to
nonverbal cues, discrimination in the quality and amount of physical contact, a keen awareness
of one's emotional state, a well-developed sense of empathy and kindness, an ability to identify
subjectivity in communication, and an effort to overcome one's fear and immobility in the face
of uncertainty. Does not entail riding, and no previous horse experience is necessary.

severe childhood diseases such as cystic fibrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, major cardiac repairs,
organ transplants, genetic metabolic disorders, and cancer. The first wave of survivors is
reaching young adulthood (ages 18-25). Many aspects of the young adult world are not yet
user-friendly for them: applying to and entering college, adherence to required medication and
diet, prospects for marriage and parenthood, participation in sports, driving, drinking, drugs,
and more. The aspiration is to develop services to improve these young adults¿ options for a
fulfilling and satisfying life. Prerequisite: Admission to the course is by application only.

Title: Practice of Medicine I
Description:
Six quarter series extending throughout the first two years of the MD program, interweaving
core skills training in medical interviewing and the physical examination with other major
threads addressing the context of medical practice: information literacy, nutrition principles,
clinical epidemiology and biostatistics, evidence-based practice, psychiatry, biomedical ethics,
health policy, population health. Core clinical skills are acquired through hands-on practice, and
evaluated through an extensive program of simulated medical encounters, in which students
interview, examine, and manage patients in a mock clinic. The information literacy thread
introduces students to informatics and knowledge management, biomedical informatics, and
evidence-based medicine searching. Nutrition principles are acquired through interactive, webbased instruction, and reinforced through problem-based learning cases, which run in parallel to
the basic science components over the first year. In epdemiology students learn the taxonomy
of epidemiological studies, how to critically read a journal article, and how to recognize and
understand the concepts behind different clinical study designs. Topics include bias,
confounding, diagnostic testing andscreening, and ""how statistics can lie."" Psychiatry
introduces students to the unique role of medical students in talking with patients, the difference
between process and content in patient communication, how to respond to breaks in the patientphysician relationship, and the relationship between the quality of the patient-physician
interaction and health outcomes. Health care policy covers such topics as health insurance,
physician payment, health care costs, access, measurement and improvement of quality,
regulation and health care reform. Biomedical Ethics includes important ethical issues in
medical practice, such as confidentiality, privacy, and ethical issues relating to medical
students. The population health curriculum exposes students to concepts of public health,
community action, and advocacy, and includes a year-long, community-based project. At the
end of this quarter students participate in a performance-based assessment of the medical
interview skills.

Description:
POM is a six-quarter preclinical course providing clinical preparation for first- and second-year
medical students. Participation in this course gives students a foundation in health policy,
medical ethics, clinical epidemiology and biostatistics, behavioral medicine, nutrition and
quantitative medicine. Additionally, students learn the basics of the medical interview, physical
examination, clinical reasoning, and procedural skills. This longitudinal preparation is designed
to prepare students for clerkships. In second-year POM, there are two major educational
categories: clinical reasoning and clinical exam skills. These two components are taught within
five curricular components that include clinical reasoning teaching rounds and small group,
clinical practicum, clinical procedures / Introduction to the Management of the Ill Patient
simulation (IMIP), advanced clinical skills, and psychiatry. Within Clinical Reasoning
Sessions, students work in a problem-based learning format, analyzing cases that integrate
course themes described above with clinical medicine scenarios. Within Practicum, students
spend alternate one-half day(s) per week in a clinical setting with a supervising faculty member,
practicing medical interview and physical examination skills. Advanced Clinical Skills
sessions provide hands-on practice working with faculty and patients on particular clinical
themes that correlate with the basic science curriculum as well as the clinical curriculum.
Specialists often co-teach these sessions, providing a focused didactic followed by small group
practice with patients, cases, and simulation exercises. Students also gain experience with oral
presentations, writing clinical notes, and other practical aspects of patient care.

Title: Design for Service Innovation
Description:
(Same as OIT 344) Open to graduate students from all schools and departments. An
experiential course in which students work in multidisciplinary teams to design new services
(including, but not limited to, web services) to address the needs of an underserved population
of users. Students learn to identify the key needs of the target population and to design services
to address these needs. Projects in 2011 will focus on services for young adult survivors of
severe childhood diseases such as cystic fibrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, major cardiac repairs,
organ transplants, genetic metabolic disorders, and cancer. The first wave of survivors is
reaching young adulthood (ages 18-25). Many aspects of the young adult world are not yet
user-friendly for them: applying to and entering college, adherence to required medication and
diet, prospects for marriage and parenthood, participation in sports, driving, drinking, drugs,
and more. The aspiration is to develop services to improve these young adults¿ options for a
fulfilling and satisfying life. Prerequisite: Admission to the course is by application only.
Applications available at http://DesignForService.stanford.edu. Applications must be submitted
by February 4, 2011.

Title: Operative Anatomy and Techniques
Description:
For preclinical students; provides a background in and integrates knowledge of surgical
anatomy and therapy. Surgical or operative anatomy differs from gross anatomy in that the area
exposed during surgery may be limited, the dissection may require exposing other seemingly
unrelated anatomic structures with unique landmarks, and the procedure may require unusual
technical facility. The course provides an opportunity for students to understand the goals of
representative surgical procedures (translating pathophysiology to surgical decision making to
actual incision). Students learn surgical skills and perform the dissection of a number of
commonly performed operations in the cadaver laboratory. The course emphasizes hands-on
participation in surgical procedures in the laboratory and is taught by attending physicians in
general, cardiothoracic, vascular, plastic, head and neck, urologic, and orthopedic surgery.
