الوصف: Introduction: Students in the preclinical phase have adequate clinical exposure to normal physiological findings of clinical examinations performed in healthy peers but do not have exposure to pathological findings other than theoretical knowledge, which is challenging for students during the clinical phase of curricula in examining actual patients. Simulation based medical education (SBME) has recently emerged to address this gap. This study aimed to assess performance and confidence level of simulation based clinical examination of respiratory system in preclinical undergraduate medical students of a medical college. Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Human Physiology of Medical College. All second year medical students using purposive sampling were taken. Students were divided into three groups and subdivided into six subgroups and each subgroup carried out examination in either healthy subjects or both healthy subjects and manikin. Predesigned proforma was used for assessment of students and the clinical examination process was invigilated by certified physiologists. Results: Students who received both simulation and conventional tutoring methods were able to accurately identify all lung sounds better as compared to those with conventional tutoring with the percentage difference being maximum in identifying vesicular (29 vs 6), stridor (28 vs 6), and bronchial (25 vs 6) breath sounds and least in identifying coarse crackles (3 vs 2). Majority (39 out of 41) of the students receiving SBME of respiratory system were satisfied with the simulation based practice and 34 of those students were even confident on clinical examination. Conclusion: SBME increases performance status and confidence level in medical students. A practical curriculum can be planned to incorporate simulation based clinical examination in preclinical medical students in practical sessions.
