exam objectives

Part B assesses the clinical skills, behaviours and knowledge required for independent practice in adults and children, including pre-hospital care as described in the curriculum. Any presentation or diagnosis that is referenced in the curriculum may be included in the examination material. This part of the examination presents scenarios to the candidate, who is expected to manage the scenarios. The scenarios encompass a range of situations, including:

  • Leadership of resuscitation
  • Direct clinical evaluation of patients
  • Discussion of difficult situations with simulated patients, relatives, and staff
  • Interpretation of clinical data and discussion of management plans by structured oral questioning
  • Demonstration of clinical skills
  • Education and training of others around clinical situations

The exam consists of 4 structured clinical (OSCE) stations and 4 structured oral (viva) stations. They will last 10 minutes each, and you will have 5 minutes in between for reading instructions. There are also 2 rest stations. Some candidates will begin or end on a rest station.

Each station or scenario is judged independently and candidates are expected to pass at least 6 out of 8 scenarios. There is a minimum of two examiners present at each station.

Completion: Candidates who pass both parts of the exam will be invited to attend the Awards Ceremony at EUSEM'S annual European Congress on Emergency Medicine. The highest scoring candidates will receive special recognition.

Part B exam format: starting from November, the exam will be conducted only through oral examinations (SOEs).    More details can be found in the "Format and Structure" section.
