Assessing clinical skills through the examiner's eyes

Researchers in Japan explored whether a wearable, neck-mounted camera could offer a new way to document and review performance during Objective Structured Clinical Examination. Focusing on a procedure that requires careful observation of hand movements and technique, the pilot study examined the feasibility of capturing assessments from the examiner’s perspective and its potential role in future clinical skills evaluation. The findings provide new insights into how wearable technologies could support assessment practices in medical education.
