The third-year elective podiatric clerkship is an off-campus podiatric clinical experience designed to supplement the podiatric training of students for whom this is more desirable than similar training in a primary medical discipline. Students in P337 will be assigned to rotate with faculty at approved residency and clerkship sites in a mixture of office and hospital settings.

Students function as primary podiatric care providers under the supervision of the attending podiatric physician. The patients seen in PM typically present with a variety of chronic conditions for which they have been treated previously (such as mechanically induced keratoses of the feet as well as various nail pathologies such as onychomycosis and nail dystrophy); thus, the emphasis of this rotation is not on the initial patient evaluation. However, patients presenting for care of an established problem do develop new concerns from time to time and the student should be prepared to elicit a pertinent history and perform a focused examination appropriate to their evaluation. Furthermore, since many of the patients seen in PM have systemic disorders such as diabetes mellitus, students are expected to evaluate them for pedal manifestations which may indicate worsening of the systemic disorder and refer patients to the appropriate physician for more extensive work-up and intervention. Students should also routinely survey patients for changes in pedal risk factors such as the appearance of neuropathy and the development of pre-ulcerative lesions. Students will gain extensive experience in the recognition and management of a variety of hyperkeratotic and nail pathologies and are expected to appreciate the contributions of biomechanical factors and underlying systemic conditions to these.

PCED P390Clinical Correlations for Podiatric Medicine4.5
This course will combine instruction in the psychomotor skills of physical examination with high-yield focused clinical instruction using case studies, clinical vignettes, peer practice, patient simulations, and standardized patient contacts as appropriate for individual modules to develop skills in patient assessment and awareness of key issues in management of common systemic conditions and less common ones of critical importance in podiatric practice. Prerequisites: Successful completion (grade of 70 or better, or S or P as applicable) in all TUSPM didactic coursework.

Podiatric medical students are responsible to the rotation intern, orthopedic resident(s) and the clinical orthopedic faculty for that particular orthopedic service. Podiatric medical students will be paired with a medical student for the duration of the rotation. This program is designed to have podiatric medical students become familiar with and experience orthopedic pathology to include diseases, fractures, soft tissue injuries, tumors, infections, neurological conditions, sports medicine injuries, etc.

Students are assigned to an inpatient general medicine service where they function as part of the treatment team. Wherever possible, TUSPM students are paired with third or fourth year medical students. In any event, an intern or resident closely supervises the clinical activities of the students. Students are exposed to the usual routine of hospital based patient care and the record keeping which is required. Students are also preceptored in the work-up of patients. Attendance at all case conferences, team rounds, grand rounds, and didactic-activities are mandatory.

Clerkship training is an integral and, therefore, required part of the curriculum of the fourth year student. The primary objective of the clerkship is to immerse the student in the highest quality educational experience possible. The following objectives are delineated for clerkship programs: 1. Provide comprehensive clinical exposure to the common problems of medicine and surgery. 2. Provide an environment in which the students can develop their clinical skills and diagnostic abilities. 3. Provide students, under attending supervision and as appropriate, an opportunity to increase their independence in treating patients. 4. Orient students to hospital-based acute care management. 5. Familiarize students with hospital operations and the role of podiatric medicine within this environment.
