National Exchange Officer for Incoming 2014-2015

Dear our beloved Scopeople! We all gather again in this cold yet heart-warming city, Bandung, attending National Leadership Summit 2015! NLS is remarkably designed to empower medical students with numerous trainings, lectures and encouraging sessions. This NLS brought the most cutting-edge issue about Medical Students’ Contribution Beyond 2015: To Ensure Healthy Lives. We were prepared for the next challenging momentum, post 2015 agenda, as its important role on conducting our hard work in the last 4 years on realizing MDG 4, 5 and 6. Regarding our occupation on professional exchange, we surely had good cognition on global health. This kind of blessing need to be collaborated with passion of improving nation’s health to achieve healthier lives for Indonesia. We hope SCOPEople can perform such a great contribution and vigorous action along with many medical students on perceiving this noble dream. Happy reading and may you find great muse. Warmest hug and kiss!

SCOPE Session 3

SCOPE Session 5

SCOPE Session 1

This was an outbond session. We had 3 sessions here, stomp the balloon, concentration games, and flirting games. This session was so fun. The members really got into one another.

We had outgoing session, SCOPE updates, grading session, meet the alumni, and SCOPE farewell party. Alya gave the lecture in outgoing session. In the SCOPE updates, the NEC explained about handover guideline, evaluation form, changes and achievements. Next was the grading session. The NEC graded the LEOs performances for first period. Then, we met the alumni. There were previous NEC, LEOs, and NEOs. Finally, the farewell party. This was the happiest and saddest moment, we had to say goodbye to all members.

n this session, we introduced ourselves to everybody. We met SCOPEople from other locals for the first time. The NEC (National Exchange Committee) made introduction first and explained the focus of SCOPE CIMSA for the following year. We also reported August Meeting and Asia Pasific Regional Meeting. We played some ice breakings. Too bad the members were very timid. The ex NEC Ayu and Ageng came in this session. DAY 2 SCOPE Session 2 This was a joint session with SCORA. We discussed about global sex issues. That is important because it happens to incoming and outgoing. Then we had Small Working Group so we could share it with other members.

Day 3 SCOPE Session 4 This was a training session for LEOs and members. There were LEO class and Member Class. In the LEO class, our NEO incoming Roro gave a training for incoming session and our NEO outgoing Alya gave a training for outgoing session. Then we had a sharing session for LEOs so we could discussed some issues. In the member class, we had some discussion about exchange. Also there was a small working group so we could discussed exchange stuff.

Fit not Fat!

Now what can we do to support those agents? Be that agent! Support your dearest mom, dad, sister, brother, uncle, auntie, huge family, bestfriend, or even the security guy at your campus to do healthy! I know those are too big as a goal, well let’s start from our inner circle, give them news, facts as a motivation, and trigger them to do more physical activities, it isn’t always about going to the gym and spend so much money, but just sweep the floor at the house regularly,

Make it as one of your agenda, spread those positive active vibes to your surroundings, and make sure they hate passive, sedentary, junk, instant, and lazy things. Sometimes, theories can be more extravagant if you apply it in a simple and consistent way. Help one, imagine all medical students who read this help their other one, how many great impacts can we create? Are you ready to keep up the quality of being other people’s reason to change! Go! Start now! Start Fit not Fat!

http://www.howtodothings.com/health-fitness/how-to-fight-obesity

As a medical student we may not have the authority yet to get our hands into those diseases medical treatments, but again, obesity is all about the imbalance of what we eat and how active we are as a human being. Recent researches told us that the supporting agent plays a very significant role in those obese people’s life. If they are surrounded by people who ask them to eat whatever lies in front of them 24/7, then obesity is just a step ahead, but if you live around people who like to go out for morning jog, or just having a fruit time and healthy lifestyle, obesity is just a dream.

or do gardening, or become their morning jog partner using those cool nike run plus app. They can be a cheap and fun way out to eliminate that obesity nightmare. The keypoint is to be consistent, and to be a consistent health agent for your beloved inner circle is as important as being healthy itself. Change their plate filling slowly to those healthy foods, less rice or carbo, more space for veggies and colorful fruits, text them every morning to do morning jog with you, and have a healthy breakfast afterwards, take time to consult to doctors (not to medical students, I suggest), about the obesity/overweight condition, and take it as one of you being an angel for your beloved one once! Get them motivated by sending them gift and pictures of their “before and after”, each progress means a world for a healthy live! Encourage them every single day when they started to doubt the outcome, well the main goal is to be and stay healthy, losing weight is obviously a bonus to get. Mindset is the hardest thing to be changed, but then again, we have thousands of different ways to show them how the feeling of being healthy is and enjoy your life as it never felt before. And for us as medical students, packed with those brilliant health theories and creative thinking as youth, we should have so many things to be done.

orldwide obesity has nearly doubled since 1980. In 2008, more than 1.4 billion adults, 20 and older, were overweight! Among these, over 200 million men and nearly 300 million women were obese! Not enough? Let’s continue, 65% of the world’s population live in countries where overweight and obesity kill more people than underweight. More than 40 million children under the age of five were overweight in 2011. Well enough by statistics, in short we have too many obese people in this world. I know, that’s a lot to take, then why is it so important for us? Take a look at our society. Nowadays, there are so many obesity diseases and disturbances caused by poor lifestyle.

Ensure Healthy Lives

by Strengthen Prevention and Treatment of Substance Abuse, Including Narcotic Drug Abuse and Harmful Use of Alcohol

Medical Students are some of people who concern in public health must know how to ensure healthy lives. There are several aspects we have to complete such as by 2030 reduce the global maternal mortality ratio to less than 70 per 100,000 live births, by 2030 end the epidemics of AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, and neglected tropical diseases and combat hepatitis, waterborne diseases, and other communicable diseases, and strengthen prevention and treatment of substance abuse, including narcotic drug abuse and harmful use of alcohol etc. Because there are many subjects in it, we can only discuss one of them. Substance abuse including narcotic drug abuse and harmful use of alcohol is chosen based on one of high frequency cases at our ages. Strengthen prevention begins from ourselves. When someone gives narcotic drugs or alco-

hol, as much as possible we have to avoid them. If necessary, we educate with delicate and polite words that narcotic drugs and alcohol are enemies which we have to against it, do not let them spread and endanger people around us. Besides, attend some seminars or other positive activities which lead us never recognize those illicit goods. Even better if we can invite our friends to do the same. The treatment we leave it to the experts concerned. What we can do for now is make a small discussion with the users, discuss about positive and negative, and as it have mentioned before, invite them to attend positive activities in order to make them forget and not repeat their actions. What things we can educate on them? It is stated in sub point 3.d., that strengthen the capacity of all countries, particularly developing countries, for early warning, risk reduction, and management of national and global health risks. We true live in developing country, but what we have to underlined is the part of early warning, risk reduction, and management of health risks. Early warning contains the theory of danger of narcotic drugs and alcohol. As medical students, we should know the contents of narcotic drugs and alcohols, its pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. Risk reduction depends on what kind of friends we hang out with. We can decrease the risk if we do not hang out with bad people. Last but not least, the management of health risks is how we give a right respond facing narcotic drugs and alcohol. The most important thing we have to concern is avoid those goods not the users.

Reference: https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/sdgsproposal

ccording to Sustainable Development Goals of United Nations beyond 2015, ensure healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all at all ages is the third goal. There are many questions about what healthy lives means, how to ensure it, and how to make it real and applicable for people. As we know, World Health Organization defined health in its broader sense in its 1948 constitution as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. Even though the definition has been subject to controversy, in particular as lacking operational value because of the problem created by use of the word “complete”. Lives are plural form of life, means concerning the people. So, healthy lives is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity that concerning the people.

The Health Benefits of

id you know that your body weight is approximately 60 percent water? Your body uses water in all its cells, organs, and tissues to help regulate its temperature and maintain other bodily functions. Because your body loses water through breathing, sweating, and digestion, it’s important to rehydrate by drinking fluids and eating foods that contain water. The amount of water you need depends on a variety of factors, including the climate you live in, how physically active you are, and whether you’re experiencing an illness or have any other health problems. Water Helps Your Body Remove Waste Adequate water intake enables your body to excrete waste through perspiration, urination, and defecation. The kidneys and liver use it to help flush out waste, as do your intestines. Water can also keep you from getting constipated by softening your stools and helping move the food you’ve eaten through your intestinal tract. However, it should be

noted that there is no evidence to prove that increasing your fluid intake will cure constipation. Water Aids in Digestion Digestion starts with saliva, the basis of which is water. Digestion relies on enzymes that are found in saliva to help break down food and liquid and to dissolve minerals and other nutrients. Proper digestion makes minerals and nutrients more accessible to the body. Water is also necessary to help you digest soluble fiber. With the help of water, this fiber dissolves easily and benefits your bowel health by making well-formed, soft stools that are easy to pass. Water Prevents You From Becoming Dehydrated Your body loses fluids when you engage in vigorous exercise, sweat in high heat, or come down with a fever or contract an illness that causes vomiting or diarrhea. If you’re losing fluids for any of these reasons, it’s important to increase your fluid intake so that you can restore your body’s

natural hydration levels. Your doctor may also recommend that you drink more fluids to help treat other health conditions, like bladder infections and urinary tract stones. If you’re pregnant or nursing, you may want to consult with your physician about your fluid intake because your body will be using more fluids than usual, especially if you’re breastfeeding. How Much Water Do You Need? Some recent research suggests that increased amounts of water such as the recommended eight 8 glasses of water a day may not have as many health benefits as experts previously believed. Most people who are in good physical health get enough fluids by drinking water and other beverages when they’re thirsty, and also by drinking a beverage with each of their meals, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. If you’re not sure about your hydration level, look at your urine. If it’s clear, you’re in good shape. If it’s dark, you’re probably dehydrated.

Things We Should Realize as Indonesian Medical Students to Ensure Healthy Lives by: Oktafiani Tri Ananda SCOPE UNAND

ime flies and now we have already reached 2015, a year in which UN member states have agreed to try achieving 8 goals of MDGs. Progress report on the health related MDGs said that while some countries have made impressive gains in achieving health-related targets, others are falling behind. And one of the obstacles of the countries that make least progress is economic hardship, just like the poverty that haven’t been solved yet in some countries including Indonesia.

We should contribute in promotive and preventive health program. Health program to ensure healthy lives usually consist of this kind of action: Promotive,

Well, those are some of many things that we should realize as doing our roles to ensure healthy lives. Hopefully it can motivate us to stop cursing at the darkness and start turning on the light by doing what we can do as medical students, to ensure healthy lives of people all over the world, starting from our lovely country, Indonesia.

Casofa, Fachmy. Gamal Albinsaid-Menyehatkan Indonesia dengan Sampah. 2014. Solo : Penerbit Tiga Serangkai.

We live in a country which consist of many people with low awareness to the health aspect. Almost half of Indonesian workers get income less than US$2. We can imagine, how could their family concern on healthy lives while they are still struggling to get out from poverty and hunger. For those people, health insurances are like a kind of luxury stuffs that they can’t afford. It’s so pathetic since health is actually the right of all human being.

Prepare ourselves! How can we contribute in promotive and preventive actions if we don’t have enough knowledge to share and capability to do those actions? So, we should gain our knowledge and experiences, enlarge our network, and prepare ourselves to make innovative solutions related to the health issues. Becoming medical students also means that we are in the journey to become future doctors. Now it is our time to prepare and maximalize our potentials so we can give our best health services as doctors in the future.

As medical students, we should have asked ourselves about what we can do to make the conditions better rather than complaining about it. Here are some things we should realize as we contribute to ensure healthy lives, especially as medical students of Indonesia:

Preventive, Currative and Rehabilitative. As medical students, at least we should contribute on Promotive action to increase the healthy living awareness and Preventive action to prevent health problems from the society. Government or private sectors might have a big project to improve nations health. But no matter how big the program is, it won’t be meaningful without the awareness of the society. So this is where we should take part to do volunteering or hold some projects to improve their awareness.

ACTION MEANS MUCH

SILENCE

octor is a very noble profession and eminent by community. Through, God gives grace to bring healing to the sick people, so it counts as a great contribution and dedication to the community. As medical students, who will be doctors in a few more years of course we have to prepare ourselves to run our role in the community with the best contribution we can do! Then, as an ideal role of students, especially medical students, what we should do to the community?

of our students clothing today.

Medical students apply the knowledge they have on their society. Not just about academic knowledge but also the knowledge about daily lifestyle. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very important role of students here. Medical students become the frontline in proclaiming on how to improve the quality of life. Not only in the field of curing diseases but also helping to improve life quality in many areas such as health, social and political.

Medical students should have started opening their eyes, hearts, and minds in order to know more better our core competencies and build capacity to contribute and respond to the needs of society. The task of medical students not only on the scope of the academic course, but there are loads and greater moral responsibility than that.

The year of 2015 is supposed to be the time limit for us to actualize the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). On the big picture it looks like we already succeed in bringing a decrease on mortality, hunger, and tropical diseases in Indonesia. But it is only by in plain view; every day there are still people in Indonesia who have contacted malaria, dengue fever, or tuberculosis. And here at this point that our existences as medical students are important in realizing the MDG goals. So what can we do? We as medical students must contribute with a high spirit, sensitive to the surrounding environment and be active in conducting activities that can improve the quality of life of the people of this nation. Do well in academic and non-academic also shows the quality of a student. In addition, medical students should also be friendly with emphasis on manners when socializing in the community, because the student is a person whose every action and attitude will be highlighted by the public and shaping public perceptions of the degree

by: Irene Stephanie SCOPE UR

It is time we restore the role of medical students not only as an event organizer becomes the ideal student base character formation. It is time we also eliminate the bad image that medical students look apathetic, individualistic, pragmatic, and opportunists. Medical students are at the same actors in the future and must reserves comprehensive interventions for physical-mental health problems social nation.

Health problems are not the responsibility of the government only, but the thing we have to face and become our main pivot point, integrated and focused collectively on behalf of Indonesia. We can do it in many ways. First, start from ourselves and the environment, apply the pattern of a healthy lifestyle. Second, start joining student organizations on campus that surely every month do their event relating to health, the target can be on campus and outside campus environment, so that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be no word to say lazy or reluctant, because when else can we contribute? Do your contribution as early as possible. Third, do not go turning back. Indeed, in the journey we certainly have constraints. But lets just forge our fighting spirit in order to realize a healthy Indonesia so that the constraints will be gone. With consciousness, spirit, as well as the seriousness of ourselves, it is expected later we will make this nation into a healthy nation both in terms of physical, mental, and social.

EXTERNAL AFFAIRS in SCOPE CIMSA agreement is still in the validation phase of the evaluation form because one of the requirements for the tutor to obtain the SKP IDI is considered by the evaluation filled by incoming students in the EF.

What is “External Affairs”? enerally, external affairs, also often called external relations, covers a broad range of functions for an organization. These may include media relations, fund raising, marketing, communications, public relations, advocacy, outreach and government relations.

Yup. Similarly in SCOPE. External relations in SCOPE include relationships with faculty and hospitals in each locals. Also stakeholders that can support us in order to carry out the professional exchange program to its best. Why is it so important? If I say that SCOPE is quite an exclusive standing committee, would you agree with that? Because it’s not easy to establish SCOPE in each locals. SCOPE needs a synergistic cooperation of outside parties. Such as hospital. Can you imagine if your local hospital no longer wish to receive incoming students? For me, no I cannot imagine. It would be the worst nightmare we possibly have. Thus the importance of maintaining the relationship between SCOPE of the respective locals and the external parties become a major priority that cannot be ignored. Now, how far is the external affair of SCOPE CIMSA? So far there have been some cooperations between SCOPE CIMSA with the stakeholders. One of them is the agreement with IDI to provide “SKP IDI” to doctors who are willing to become tutors for incoming students during their exchange. This

There is also cooperation with Kemenparekraf (Kementrian Pariwisata dan Ekonomi Kreatif ). Recently, we ask for hundreds of souvenirs from Kemenparekraf to be given to the incoming students who come to Indonesia this year. Besides aiming to promote tourism and culture of Indonesia, we expect the incoming students to feel our warm welcome with the goodies provided that can also be used as a keepsake when they’re back home. Not just IDI and Kemenparekraf, we also have a good cooperation with DIKTI as well. Evidenced by the issuance of an official letter from DIKTI that supports our exchange program, DIKTI also encourage SCOPE to transfer exchange marks into elective credits in each locals! And regarding to some visa issues that always ended up as big troubles for us, we are now planning a cooperation with some embassies to facilitate the processing of visas for both outgoing and incoming. Hopefully with more upcoming partnerships between SCOPE CIMSA and external parties can strengthen our existence and may give benefits to its members, and indeed, to our outgoing- incoming students. I’m sure that all mentioned above would not be possible without the support of our beloved External Team of CIMSA, NEC, LEOs and of course you, dear SCOPEOPLE!! So please let me know if you have further questions or suggestions regarding some partnerships that can be established in the future.

FRANCE | OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGY a story by: Shafira Anindya, FKUI

irst of all I considered myself lucky to get this opportunity to join the IFMSA Professional Exchange in Grenoble, France. Grenoble is a small city located in the middle of the Alpes. This city has lots of hıstorıcal buıldıngs and the vıew ıs breathtakıng. In thıs cıty there are many parks wıth bırds and flowers everywhere, the aır ıs very clean and the weather ıs a lıttle bıt colder than other cıty ın France. The maın transportatıons ın Grenoble are bus, tram, and bıcycle. Sınce ıt ıs a small cıty, almost everythıng ıs on walkıng dıstance. Everyone needs to walk a lot here but ıt’s not a problem because Grenoble’s envıronment ıs very suıtable for pedestrıans. In Grenoble, I had a month clerkship as an extern at Otorhinolaryngology (ORL) Department in CHU Michallon – Grenoble. The clerkshıp started at 7.40 and ended around 13.00, but sometımes ıt ended around 14.30. From my clerkshıp, I got some new experıences as an extern that I dıdn’t get from my clerkshıp ın my unıversıty. For example, I had many chances to observe the doctors or ınterns did the endoscopy or other developed technology, and also I got the chance to assıst ORL surgerıes. For me thıs would expand my knowledge and enrıch my experıence especıally ın ORL. The only problem for me was the language. Most of the doctors, ınterns, and externs spoke englısh to me but the patıents spoke french. Sometımes the doctors didn’t have enough tıme to explaın everythıng ın englısh but sınce I had already passed the ORL department ın my unıversıty ıt wasn’t really a bıg problem.

There were 7 ıncomıngs ın Grenoble in July. There were a boy from Fınland, a boy from Turkey, a gırl from Poland, a gırl from Spaın, 2 gırls from Israel, and me. Sınce there were not many Exchange students here, we became really close to each other. We did lots of travellıng ın the cıty after workıng ın the hospıtal, we had dınner together for many tımes, we even explored some tourısm spot around

Grenoble on weekend. One of the most unforgettable experıence for me was when we went hıkıng on the Alpes and we made our camp next to the lake. The mountaın had snows on ıt and the vıew there was really breathtakıng. I am really glad that I met the other Exchange students because wıthout

PERISCOPE 4TH EDITION VOL. 2 | FEB - MAY 2015 them, my journey would not be as good as ıt ıs. I had some crıtıcs for the Exchange offıcer ın Grenoble. Fırst of all, I personally thought that the offıcer dıdn’t do anythıng for us except took us to our appoıntment and to our department and one socıal program on our fırst day. The LEO only met us once and after that she never showed up nor arranged anythıng. We were supposed to get 90 euro check for lunch ın the hospıtal but ıt had not been processed by the LC. We also had not get any ınfo about our certıfıcate from the LEO. Luckıly one of my frıend had a very nıce host that took care of us a lot (much more than the LEO). I really hope they could fıx thıs problem (sınce these thıngs are theır responsıbılıty) for a better Exchange program ın the future. Lastly the exchange experience that I had was a memorable story which I could never forget. I also want to thank to SCOPE for taking a good care during my process to have the exchange program, and I know that it is very hard for the LEO to take care of each outgoing, but I would like to say that I’m very grateful to have this amazing opportunity.

GERMANY | CARDIOVASCULAR SURGERY a story by: Jatrifia Ramadhani, FKUB

exciting, yet I was so nervous because I knew very little about clinical world. It was hard at first because they changed my tutor several times. I was with dr. X for three days but then she asked me to go with dr. Y because she couldn’t speak English. Dr. Y also refused to be my tutor because he couldn’t speak English either and he was very busy. Finally, I ended up with dr. Sowinski. I felt like I was unwelcomed, because none of my incoming friends in Duesseldorf has experienced such thing. Thank god dr. Sowinski was nice even she was very busy and spoke English very well. There were also 6th year students who worked in the department, so I could follow and observe them.

ast summer, I got the opportunity to do a professional exchange in Duesseldorf, Germany. I worked at cardiovascular surgery department. This was my very first time to work in hospital—I am still in preclinical year in my university. This was very

Everyday I came to the hospital at 8.15 am. I would follow the supervisors to visit the patients, and then I would help the 6th year students to take patient’s blood. At first, I only helped them to prepare the tools and sent the samples to lab but in my last days they let me take patient’s blood by myself for couple times. After that I checked the surgery schedule to see if there’s any cardiovascular surgery. If dr. Sowinski let me observe the surgery I will go to the OR. If the operation ended before 3pm I would go back to the department to see if there’s anything I could help. I went back to the dorm at 3pm. I did, observed, and learnt a lot of things during the exchange. I observed many kinds of cardiovascular surgery such as bypass surgery, aortic valve replacement, minimal invasive bypass surgery, and etc. I assisted an operation once. I also learnt a lot of anesthesiology because I had

CENTER FOR INDONESIAN MEDICAL STUDENTS’ ACTIVITIES always stood up near the anesthesiologist when I observed the surgery. I also learnt a lot of patients treatment like debridement, blood gas analysis procedure, how to put intravenous catheter, and etc. This was my first exposure to clinical world and the knowledge I got was way more than I expected.

and old at the same time. There were a lot of museums to be visited and the city center was very refreshing; with Rhein river across it so we could sit down and enjoyed the fresh air of summer. I also really loved the park, where Germans had barbeque party in the afternoon.

The hospital was quite different to my city’s hospital, Rumah Sakit Umum Syaiful Anwar (RSSA). Universitätklinikum Duesseldorf was more quiet and organized. I thought that the students who worked here were given more responsibilities than students who worked in RSSA—they could decide what kind of tests that the patients needed and treated the patients without being observed by the supervisors. The relationship between students and supervisors were more friendly; students could ask anything to the supervisors without fear, and the supervisors also respected the students.

But the exchange was also hard because I was celebrating Ramadhan. I had to do fasting in summer, it meant i had to fasting from 2.30am and ended at 10pm. The duration of fasting was way longer than in Indonesia. At first, it was very hard to adapt— I felt very weak, plus I had to stand up for hours in the surgery. Not to mention that my incoming friends asked me to go for a walk in the afternoon after work. Thank god I met moslem friends from Turkey and Afghanistan who also studied in Universitätklinikum who sometimes asked me to have dinner together so I didn’t have to break fasting alone in my room. I was also introduced to an Indonesian family who lived in Duisburg, a very near city, so I didn’t really feel homesick.

The facilities I got from LC of Duesseldorf were spectacular. I got a dorm room for myself, with bathroom and refrigerator inside. The room was small, but it was enough for me. It was a priviledge because my other outgoing friends from another country got 1 room for 2 people or 1 room for him/ herself but without bathroom inside. There was also a public kitchen where the incoming students usually had dinner together and met the other students who lived at dorm. I also got a German number with amazing internet connection so I could always contact my family back in Indonesa. And I also got a bicycle! The social programs were also good. We went to the city center on the first weekend, and to Koeln— a neighbour city— at the next weekend, and then to country side of the city on another weekend. Duesseldorf was a very nice city—it was modern

After all, the exchange was really great! It was once in a lifetime experience. For those who are going to do exchange I only have 1 advice: don’t be shy! We, Indonesians, are usually very shy. We are usually afraid to ask anything from tutors or other people in the hospital. But it’s different in Europe! You have to speak up to be noticed. Don’t wait until your tutor asked you to go to a surgery—find one surgery and ask them whether you could go! Don’t sit around and hope somebody will ask you to help them—find somebody and ask whether you could help them! Speak up!

ITALY | NEUROLOGY a story by: Dimas Saksila Aji, FK UMY

he differences I found there were, each departement in Italy got one specific building, for example neurology, and it was divided into some sub-departments, which are neuromuscular, general neurology, and nerve surgery. Each of the department was handled by experts and specialists as the head of the department and supervisor. Each supervisor should give a morning briefing and coming to visit the patients. In Italy, nurses were only doing the treatment itself, while all job like drawing blood, calling patients, etc were done by the doctors, not the nurses. All medical records were computerized. Another unique things happening besides the hospital’s location were not everyone could speak english. The material overviews which I got during the clerkship were Parkinson’s, Botox injections,

neurology examinations, HIV/ AIDS with neurology complications, Skizofrenia with neurology complications, brain stimulation for Parkinson’s patients, brain hemorrhage which can lead to neurological problem. I have some suggestions for you if you are about to take the exchange program. You may be shocked when you were in a new environment, just try to learn and mingle. You have to study before attending the clerkships. Because it’s necessary. Some hospitals may put its standard high, average, or just so-so. Make sure at least you could do the physical examinations especially in the department where you are placed in. And don’t forget to take documentation on the hospitals more.

RUSSIA | SURGERY a story by: Kevin Adrian, FK UNAIR

zhevsk, being the capital city of the Udmurt Republic as part of Russian Federation, is actually the nineteenth largest city in Russia and the largest in the republic. It has a humid continental climate with long cold winters, making it considered as a challenge from an outgoing from our lovely tropical country, Indonesia that is used to a very hot climate. Kevin Adrian, one of the outgoings from Universitas Airlangga, went to step his own feet in this city on a really cold winter on February 1 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 28, 2014. The temperature was -35oC when he first got there and that caused him to eat more and more, otherwise he could get sick if he had not done it. The city itself barely had sun over their head on a regular basis and somehow it has made the people cold and very rarely has smile on their faces, at least that was what his house owner told him. A second year medical student owned the house where he stayed for four weeks, named Khristina Mosharova. She was very helpful and always accompanies him around the hospital, because a lot of people in Izhevsk are not capable of speaking English. He was placed in one of the twenty hospitals in Izhevsk. However, the hospitals do not have names like what we have here in Indonesia, they have numbers and each has their own specialization. And he was placed in hospital number two, which is specializing in Surgery division. Dr. Evgeny was appointed to be his supervising doctor. Luckily

the doctor is capable of speaking in fluent English. The average time spent at the hospital was about 5 hours, which started at eight in the morning and ended at one in the afternoon. Not only being in the surgery division the whole time, but Kevin also had the chance to experience the internal medicine department for four days. And he said so himself, he was so lucky to have all these nice people making him got the best of the exchange experience. He did go through the night shift on the surgery department. It started at five in the afternoon but they let him go already at eleven in the evening. Total incoming perks, right? But the best of all was to assist the dean on an operation of a patient with sternum osteomyelitis. And it was the best and the most exciting thing that he actually put his hands on a patient. It was an honor and a really unforgettable experience. The people of Izhevsk are not as cold as their look on the outside. On the other hand, they were the best people he could spend on a limited time. To top it off, the culture itself is not too different than Asians. And mostly the food, you do not even have to worry about missing rice because they have some really nice curry rice! All in all, having the opportunity to be in Russia for a month was indeed a challenge because of the weather, but from what he got and what he experienced, they were all worth every single bit.

SWITZERLAND | OPHTHALMOLOGY a story by: Daya Banyu Bening, FK UNAIR

et me phase this now, I will never like never ever will feel the same experience I got from IFMSA’s professional exchange program. It literally changed the way I see the world. So I was accepted by SWIMSA, the Swiss Medical Students’ Association for the exchange in the city of Basel. Since it was my lifelong dream to be an ophthalmologist, it would be weird to not to choose the ophthalmology department in Augenklinik des Universitätsspital Basel which had a state-of-the-art eye surgeries equipments, in addition to that many worldrenowned eye doctors also studied there. I considered myself to be incredibly lucky because I and my family hosted a Switzerland medical student who came to Surabaya for her exchange in Rumah Sakit Dr. Soetomo, not knowing that she will be one of the exchange officers in Switzerland flash forward two years from that time. She contacted me that it will be possible for a non-german speaking student to do an exchange in Swiss even that condition only applied to the city of Basel and the eye department, and it’s a perfect click. The exchange was a LOOOTT OF FUNNN!! Unfortunately I was the only incoming student on February 2014, so it was mandatory for me to assimilate with the natives

there. Frankly, I didn’t get much academically from the lectures there since all the lectures were in German. But I got so much medical skill practices there and the people there were really supportive and inclusive of foreign student like me. Even if the stereotypical natives of Switzerland are typically cold and unfriendly, I made lots of friends there, so don’t judge to fast. The only problems I encountered there was the lack of clinical exposure I got from Indonesia since I only finished my pre-clinical years when I got there. One thing for sure, the equipments there are all modern and state of the art. I was amazed by how great the equipments were and how skillful the ophthalmologists there. They got lots of interesting cases I will not experienced in Indonesia, which came to me by surprised since we were taught that the variety of cases in Indonesia is one of the vastest in the whole world. You will not regret your decision to make a step forward doing an IFMSA’s professional exchange. I am sure that any country you guys are accepted in will be an one of a lifetime experience.

GERMANY | GENERAL SURGERY a story by: Leonita Ariesti Putri, FKUI

n the first day of exchange program I had been picked up by one of the event committee, who’s also a medical student that will escort me to the hospital where I would do my internship for the next 4 weeks of my exchange program. Afterwards I had been introduced to the vice department of surgery, then my supervisor had introduced me to all of the staff in the department and asked me in which field that I should take in the department of surgery. There were two division that the department had proposed to me which are general surgery or thoraces surgery, and I had decided to take the general surgery division. I had done my internship in the Universitaetsklinik Rostock, where it was a government hospital. However it was different from Indonesia, the hospital department in Rostock was widespread in some locations. what I’m trying to imply is I did my internship on the 4th floor which the general department of surgery took place. Moreover the Department of Pediatrics, Orthopedics, Psychiatry, etc was a building as a size of Indonesia hospital which were widespread in different location and each of the department were not close to each other. In the first day I had been given an orientation in the hospital and was introduced to one of the medical student who’s also doing the clinical rotation in the general Department of Surgery and with one resident who had been appointed by my supervisor. Every day, except for Friday, was the end of my shift, the activities of the internship program started at 07.00. Everyday, the program started by doing round wards. The round was done in German language so this was one of the obstacle that I was facing to understand the information that was explained, even though I could speak German but the dialect that used in Rostock was different

with the dialect that I had learnt in my course. As already known by the whole world, German was very discipline about time, not sooner or later than 5 minutes from the time before it was started. Even though I was having problem understanding the discussion but I checked the patient medical record in the wards so I knew what I had to diagnose. The wards room only had a capacity from 1 until 6 patients and the class was not separated. The patient care cost had been covered by health insurance provide by the country. Every patient had the same treatment care. In one view point was a good thing, because the poor people also remained guarantee by their health care and welfare. However in other view point it was an unfairness because the German had to pay the award payment according to their income, whereas the poor people received their payment covered by the government. There was a good side if the people who’s paying more would receive something in return. At 07.40 all doctors, residents, and also medical student gathered in the hall for their morning discussion. The morning discussion discussed the follow up result of the ward patient and the patient who would undergo operation at that day. At 08.00 the morning discussion finished and all of the staff and students would go with their business. I had to choose if I wanted to join the operation or do work in wards. Often I prefered to do my work the wards and then I joined the operation. Every time I did the wards I had done were vein puncture, learning patient medical records, observe medical students doing anamnesis, sometimes I would also like to join the anamnesis of the patient by using German or English language to the patients.

SWEDEN | GENERAL SURGERY a story by: Chandra Ayu Nastiti, FK UMY

ostly the material overviews were clinical, since I was placed in general surgery departments, so it was as similar as when you have your ko-assistant stage. Every 2 days, i was rotated to experience not only in the OR, but also in the emergency room, clinic, and room for inpatient. In the inpatient room, i followed the doctors who checked the patients one by one, did some vital signs, and sometimes basic physical examinations. In emergency, i was allowed to do minor surgery and observed the patients in emergency room. In the OR, i was allowed to assist the operation my self, i was placed in the steril area, and sometimes completed the last suture. Besides that, I should attend the morning discussion especially with the radiologist. The differences about their hospital systems with Indonesia were, they were using electronic medical recorder, and computerization. So each of doctor and nurse which had finished their visits and examinations must record their voices contain the report of patient updated con-

dition, and would be sent to the general medical secretary in the hospital to be typed and uploaded to the database of the patient medical record. So i would say that it was really modern. The prescriptions system was also computerized and recorded nationally, so that the prescriptions history of the patient in every single hospital could be easily transferred to the other hospital. Beside that, usage of white coat was highly resrticted there, because it was considered as unhygiene thing. So as the solution, the hospital provided the doctors and nurse the scrub or sterile gown which could only be wore inside the hospital, and it was disposable. So you could only use it once, and then you should throw it away. Unique things i found during my exchange were i was fasting there, since it is summer so that i needed to fasting for 21 hours straight, and could do iftar at 10 p.m. it was really hard so mostly the moeslems in sweden decided not to do fasting. most of the citizens in sweden are imigrants, and mostly they come from Iran, Iraq, Syria, and most of them

are doctors. My tentor himself is an Iran, and he is so handsome like Zayn Malik. I was also glad because all people nurses and doctors were really nice and open, fluent in english so I felt like I was at home and having no obstacles during my clerkships. It was so easy to find moeslems with hijab everywhere, so I was relieved. The suggestions for the outgoing students, you need to be determined, enjoy the trip, be prepared like learn the theory first etc. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be afraid, keep up your health, keep all of your important belonging with you, be open, be brave and good luck!

FRANCE | INTERNAL MEDICINE a story by: Nanda Satria Editama, FK UNISSULA

y journey started from Singapore where I took flight from Singapore directly to Paris without transit. This trip took approximately 13 hours. After I arrived at the airport Charles de Gaulle, Paris, I immediately took a train to belgium. From paris to belgium, it took about 1.5 hours. During the first weeks of my stay in Belgium, i could go to neighbour countries such as netherlands and luxembourg. It only took about an hour by car because it was very close. Entering the beginning of next month, it was the time that I had to start the exchange program in nancy, France. So I took bus to go to nancy from brussels. It only took 2.5 hours until I arrived in nancy. I rrived at the bus stop in Nancy at 7pm of the local time. Of course, I had already been in contact with my hostfamily before. After my hostfamily picked me up, we directly went to their apartment in city center of nancy. My hostfamily were very friendly. After I had a little chitchat, I took a rest because the next day would be my first day of the exchange program.

On the next day, I walked along with my hostfamily to the tram station near the apartment. I used the tram as my daily transport cause my hostfamily gave me a payment card. From there, it only took 15 minutes to arrive at nancy hospital center. At the hospital, I directly went to internal department with a companion. And I had been arranged a meeting with the head of its department. The head of internae department gave me an explanation about the mechanisms and daily activities that i would be do during my clerkship. and also gave me further intrucstions. The thing which I had to provide myself daily was only a stethoscope. For the white coat, it had been prepared from the hospital which was always be replaced everyday. Then, I was introduced to my friends who worked at the same department as I do. After that, i started my first activity which took at the internae poly. Here, my friends and I did an anamnesis of the patient and also did some examinations. It had done entirely with French language so it was literally hard for me to understand because I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too good in speaking French. But, my

friend helped me and tried to translate it into English. This activity started at 9 am and took 2 hours to be done. When I had finished my work at the poly, my friends and I headed to the discussion room to recapitalize medical record that had been made in details. At the mid day, all the activities stopped due to lunch time. At the hospital, there was a restaurant which was paid by using a membership card. And luckily, my friend had prepared it for me. After 1 hour of rest, we continued activities in the ward internal. My friend and I did a physical examination of the patients. At the time, I had been accompanied by a doctor and helped me with language problem. At 3 pm, I ended my activities. Then I went back to the apartment using tram. At the 3rd week of my clerkship, I participated in the training of the materials as well as the introduction of surgical latest tools. There were only 4 surgical robots in France. And of the robot, took part in this hospital. The same activity that i did, lasted for 4 weeks. Toward the end of 4th week, I was given a certificate from the LC.

Thailand. They used this river as a transportation, if you wanted to cross this river, you needed to pay for 3 baht or around 1000-1500 rupiahs, and if you wanted to see its beauty by doing river trip, you needed to pay for 15 baht or around 500-6000 rupiahs. In the evening, the river’s scenery was so beautiful, especially when you saw the sparks of sunset lights in Wat Arun.

COPE CIMSA gave me an oppurtunity to spend a month of clerkship program in thailand. I was placed in emergency medicine department at Siriraj Hospital. When I heard ER for the first time, I thought I was going to meet such massive, panic, and other dangerous situations. Siriraj Hospital is one of the biggest and the most crowded hospital in Thailand, even when the king’s sick, he will be treated here. Siriraj is also one of the most recommended hospital to go to, it’s similar to RSCM in Indonesia. This hospital is located beside river called Chao Praya. when i heard the name of the river for the first time, i imagined that it would be like Ciliwung river in Indonesia, but it turned out that this river is a favorite tourist destination in

Siriraj Hospital is one of the hospital for education owned by Mahidol University. All students in Thailand wore a uniform, including when they did their clerkships. Uniform for student was white and black. Not only students in the S1, but the residence was also using uniform, white colored with an emblem of their university. Workdays in Thailand started from Monday-Friday. I needed to come to the hospital at 8 a.m and I could go home at 4 p.m. ER in Thailand was different than the other, they divided the department into sub-departments, which were traumatic, and non-traumatic ER. I was given time in non trauma for 2 weeks, and 3 weeks in traumatic. There were a lot of things happening there. I saw arterial blood drawing, catheter installation intravenously, this catheteter was used as the primary treatment for sepsis shock, but not all of patients could be performed this treatment, because it had so many effects. I also saw a woman gave birth inside a car, so the doctors were hurried to help assisting the labour. There were various schedules in ER. Monday, they had journal club, Tuesday follow up around, Wednesday Interesting cases, Thursday Morning case, Friday Lecture and stimulation. After spending 2 weeks in non-traumatic sub-dep, I changed the sub-dep. I saw a massive bleeding

When i was waiting for this class, one of the doctors said that there was an emergency patient so we needed to cancel the class. I went to ICU and the patient was being operated in his thorax, because he was not stable. There were a lot of experiences especially being here at the first times . Besides, i also saw a vp shunt installation in hydrochepalus case. after 5 weeks, i had such a great weeks, although i was out of my comfort zone, meeting people, cases, etc but I felt really lucky to participate the exchange program with SCOPE-CIMSA.

POLAND | LOWER ANTERIOR RESECTION FOR RECTAL CANCER an article by: Irma Suryani, FK UNAND

always lead to death. The main reason is the fact that 50% of the colorectal cancer is diagnosed only when it has reached the later stage. People with the age of 60 and above are more exposed to this disease.

olorectal Cancer(CRC) is one of the most common cancers in the western countries. In Poland, colorectal has been defined as a tumour with the highest invasion rate. According to the mortal rate in

2010, this tumour was placed as the second highest cause of death in males, and third within females. Amongst the known most malignant tumours, colorectal has been placed as the second most occurring, and

The most common location for this cancer is at the rectum. Usually, this disease is diagnosed unintentionally or as a result of screenings(for rectoscopy or colonoscopy). Endoscopic examination is the most effective method for early detection of any neoplastic changes. Late diagnosis and the rate of invasion of the tumour towards the nearby tissues has a life-changing effect. Low Anterior Resection(LAR) surgery is the usual treatment for rectal cancer that occurs when the cancer is located

PERISCOPE 4TH EDITION VOL. 2 | FEB - MAY 2015 above the anus. In LAR, the procedure will require the removal of all the rectal cancer cells, the normal tissues and the surrounding lymph nodes through the dissection made at the lower abdomen. When the cancer cells has been removed, the dissected part of the rectum will be connected to the descending colon below the peritoneal reflection and will be stitched together. If the cancer is lower than the rectum, the large intestinal part can be connected together to the anus, or known as coloanal anastomosis.A temporary colostomy will be made during this anastomosis to protect the colon to the anus. This temporary colostomy will be kept until the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition improves and the intestinal and rectal wounds heal. Although a complete surgery has been done, some patients will experience recurrencies. These cancer cells are called as micrometastases and cannot be detected with the available tests present now. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are the available options that can be used to kill the micrometastases. This is to increase the number of successful recovery after the cancer removal surgery. Patients undergoing LAR may experience discomfort at the lower abdomen after the surgery. Some of the complications from this procedure includes bleeding, infection and a temporary difficulties to empty the the urinary bladder. In Poland, all the patients undergoing this surgery has to routinely go to the hospital for followups twice for the first month after the procedure, and once for each following months. Patients are advised to maintain a good hygiene of the post-operation wound.

i Scopeople all over Indonesia, my name is Yoga Paripurna. And I would like to share my experiences when I was taking my clerkship abroad. My journey started on June 28th,2011. My clerkship program took place in Czech Republic. I felt so grateful and delightful of being a CIMSA member especially SCOPE, thus I could get this contract. On my thoughts, people who joined the

exchange program would get some experiences and knowledges at the hospital, got a lot of life lesson, knew the culture and lifestyle of another countries that they had never encountered. I got Prague, the capital city of Czech Republic where I took a full month of my clerkship. I was very lucky because i got my clerkship at teaching

CENTER FOR INDONESIAN MEDICAL STUDENTS’ ACTIVITIES hospital named NEMOCNICE MOTOL. It was the best hospital in the city and also a part of Charles University which is the most prominent university in Prague. There were a lot of thing that I could get while I was there such as laparoscopic surgery, condyloma acuminatum laseration, tumors detection by using NeopRobe. Besides the things that I have mentioned before, this hospital got a high standard of sterility so it was only a little possibility of nosocomial infection. And I would like to tell you the beauty of Prague and enjoying moments which I got during my clerkship. first of all, this city had very beautiful views. I would like to say that I would never felt bored walking around in this city because there was a lot of remains from the first and the second world war. I enjoyed it a lot! My journey was also more beautiful because I had surounded by many friendly outgoing friends from another countires such as Spain, France, Egypt, Oman, Mexico, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Taiwan, Greece and also friendly IFMSA-CZ officers. There were a lot of thing that we had done together such as had a dinner together and brought their authentic foods. I enjoyed this kinda situation, because it felt so warm and unforgettable. I had an amazing holiday, because I could go to another countries such as Berlin, Bratislava, Krakow, Budapest, Vienna on each weekend. it was unbelievable I went to 6 countries in only a month. Finally, I would like to say to all of you that joining the exchange program will gain your experience and knowledge as a medical student. Especially for the members of SCOPE CIMSA Unissula. You’ll also get some life lessons and you won’t regret it.

SOVAN by SCOPE UNAND

allo CIMSA! Here’s SCOPE UNAND has held SOVAN (SCOPE On Vacation) at Pasir Jambak Beach, Padang last September 30th 2014. Why? This project means to bond all of our SCOPE members because there’re bunch of new SCOPE members have joined us this year. The duration of this project took 5 hours and it really helped us to bond the group and to understand each other in a good time. Picnic is our main theme in this project. It was filled with great games that brought joy and fun to all members. This project attended by 18 member of SCOPE UNAND. We went to Pasir Jambak Beach at 8.30 AM and arrived there at 9.10 AM. Just in time we’ve got there, all of the members directly took photos and played all around. After that we started the games, those games were really fun and brought much joyful. Then we took a lot of photos together and played around the beach. At 11.00 AM we held the mat and place all of the food, and everyone already knew what’s going on next… it’s time to eat! Hahahahaha. So this was why we chose “Picnic” as this project’s theme. So everybody could bring what they had and shared it started from appetizer till the dessert, so yummy. And this is it, everybody gone insane with the food, really hahahahah.. This ultimately helped the main purpose of this project to bond our

members’ heart and all of those events just an unforgettable moment for us. After everybody had a full tummy, we spent the next one hour for free time and launch our first SCOPE UNAND banner, yeaay! And at 12.30 we ended this project and went back to home sweet home. What a great day we had.. This project had 80% of success indicator because well prepared and we held it successfully and almost hit no problem. The only problem is this project attended not by all of the SCOPE members because of another important schedule and activity. And we started the project a bit late, so the project officer should cut down the rundown that had been scheduled until it was suited the estimated time. So, the evaluation for the next SOVAN is we should estimate more time and have alternative rundown that will help if we got some problem in the way. SOVAN is a worth and potentially project to improve our bond quality and can provide a good time to have fun together. We had a Blast Hours with amazing SCOPE members to bond our mate. SOVAN!! SOOO FUN!! Can’t wait for another SOVAN!! With Love from Padang, SCOPE CIMSA UNAND

TOEFL SOLUTION by SCOPE UR

verybody has to improve their skills on English especially for unlimited knowledge on medical and its education such as updates journals, books and to welcome AFTA 2015. As we know, one of the parameters to know English’s ability is TOEFL (Test of English as Foreign Language). By seeing this need, SCOPE CIMSA UR did its Annual Project named TOEFL SOLUTION 2014 on Saturday September 14th 2014, placed at Faculty of Medicine University of Riau. The main targets of this project are new students 2014, but we also invited some senior high school on Pekanbaru and another faculty. The purpose of this project is not only to improve skills but also to motivate students. Also supported by Indonesia’s TOEFL Institute (Lembaga TOEFL Indonesia), SCOPE CIMSA UR successfully did TOEFL Solution 2014 well. Introducing on TOEFL, Prediction Test, Tips and Trick are some activities on D-day.

tions and they must answered all together. In this session, participant could ask some questions about it. Instructor gave clarifications and explanations. Then we continued the next step, Tips and Tricks! The real session was Prediction Test. Prediction test is important because we can measure our skills. It took 2 hours. Participants were so serious on doing it. After getting lunch, winners were announced. The first winner is Irene Yohanna from new batch. To conclude, TOEFL Solution 2014 got positive feedbacks from participants, Institute, and University. Hope this annual project can continue on the next year and keep giving positive effects.

Registration opened at 08:00 a.m. Then, the opening ceremony and speech by Project Officer and Local Coordinator of CIMSA UR started. Participants were so enthusiast. We continued the project by introducing on TOEFL. What TOEFL exactly is, why and how important it is and what students have to do to improve their English’s Skill. Next session was a mini test.

PRE DEPARTURE

TRAINING by SCOPE UPH

sn’t going to a different country far away scary? You don’t speak the language, you probably won’t know anyone and you don’t know what to expect. This is the very reason SCOPE Universitas Pelita Harapan holds an event called Pre-Departure training every year. What is Pre-departure training? Well to put it simply, we don’t want our outgoing delegates to be shocked when they are left in the outside world, therefore we give them a little training to know what to expect when they are left alone to fend for themselves when in a different country. The project officer for this event is Sherry Felicia, a second year member of CIMSA, and one of the SCOPEOPLE. This year, our Pre-departure training was held at the sixth floor of Universitas Pelita Harapan, at 5.30pm. Firstly, we had a couple of CIMSA seniors, who had participated in past exchanges, tell us about what they had experienced while they were there. A few of them chose to talk more about their personal experiences, and what type of friends they made there. A few others prepared our delegates for culture shock, choosing instead to talk about how different it is in other

countries, and telling the delegates not to be shocked if the habits of those outside of Indonesia differ from ours. They talked about taboos, common courtesy, and generally how to act with the “Bules”. The rest of the seniors talked more about the medical aspect of the exchange, and the variety of things they learnt while they were there. Now that the outgoing delegates are mentally prepared for the exchange, we wanted to prepare their skills as well. It would be embarrassing if the doctors overseas expect us to have mastered a particular skill and we have not. That is why part two of the PreDeparture training is the workshop, where we had dr. Jeremy Sp.B give a lecture on basic skill sets that are essential and demonstrate on how to suture and place an IV line. The outgoing delegates were then left to practice suturing on sponges and placing an IV line on a mannequin, under the supervision of dr. Jeremy. Through this Pre-Departure Training, we hope that our outgoing delegates learn something and are more prepared for the exchange :))

ENGLISH

PROJECT

by SCOPE UI

nglish Project was held by SCOPE UI, on March 2014, at CIMSA UI’s Community Development in Menteng, Central Jakarta. In this project the participant was 4th, 5th, and 6th grade primary school student, in which the total number of participants reached 30 students. English Project itself was organized to increase primary school students’ knowledge regarding English language and improve their ability to use English language. Through this project we taught them about basic grammar, vocabulary, and spelling through interactive games and presentation. We also showed them a cartoon movie with English subtitles in order for them to learn more about the English language. English Project started with an opening statement by Dhitya Prasetya as the project officer of English Project, and by Vega Andhira as LEO SCOPE UI 2013-2014. After the opening statement, a member of SCOPE UI, Denisa, presented about grammar and sentences and also she added several examples of how to incorporate grammar into sentences. The participant was very enthusiastic and asked several questions regarding the topic and they managed to correctly answer the questions given to them at the end of presentation. After the presentation about grammar and sentences, another members of SCOPE UI presented about vocabularies that are commonly used in daily life such as names of animals, body parts, food, etc. The participants showed great enthusiasms, as they were eager to answer the questions given about the vocabulary.

After the 2 presentations, we held a snack break for the participant and showed them a short cartoon film in English. They seemed very interested in the film. The break lasted for 20 minutes, and then the session 2 of English Project begun. In the session 2 of English Project, we held an outdoor game, in which the participants are divided into 5 teams, and we showed a card that contained a verb and the first person on the team should act out the word. The participants were very interested and enthusiastic even though the weather was very hot. The game went very well even though some of the verbs cannot be acted out because all of the students do not know about some of the verbs. Lastly, after the outdoor game we took a photo together and gave the students souvenirs such as bags and stationery. The students were very happy to join the English Project, and so were we as the organizing committee. We hope this project will give a good impact in increasing their knowledge in English language as well as improving their ability to speak English.

ACE A

by SCOPE AND SCORA UIN

CE is a co-joined project between 2 Standing committees, SCOPE and SCORA. From SCOPE’s side, this project is a modified form of one of the best project in CIMSA Local UIN, SCOPExpo. SCOPExpo itself had been chosen as the best project in project presentation on CIMSA October Meeting 2012. SCOPExpo is an exclusive project for all medical students of UIN Jakarta, with its goals are to increase the students interest to be more critical at the new and important issues on medical world, to increase their passion at learning English as their second language especially with AFTA 2015 coming up soon,

and the last purpose is to attract more medical students in UIN Jakarta to do exchange. This project is held in form of English competition. The competition consists of poster design, speech competition,

spelling bee, and the most sought after type of competition, English debate competition. In this year, SCOPExpo’s theme is very different and unique from its previous years. Because in this year SCOPExpo was held at the same time and period as World AIDS Day on 1st of December, SCOPExpo current theme was AIDS and Cultural Influence in its spreading and development nationally and internationally. Because of that matter, a project was formed from SCOPExpo SCOPE and WAD (World AIDS DAY) SCORA, and became ACE (AIDS and Cultural EXPO). This project

is a celebration project which held on 2 weeks continuously. From 1st of December 2014, when we celebrated World AIDS Day at our beloved campus UIN Jakarta. In this celebration, we held and gather

students’ signs then took photo with the signs as our declaration at agreeing ‘zero discrimination’ act on people with AIDS. On 4th of December 2014 we held English competition lead by SCOPE, which consists of spelling bee and first round of debate competition with AIDS and Culture as its theme. There were two themes given on debate competition, which are “The spread of AIDS in Indonesia mostly caused by globalization effect” and “It is necessary to give education about AIDS toward Children (Elementary Students)”. This competition was judged by English lecturer from Language Major of UIN Jakarta and VLE CIMSA UIN 2012-2013 which is also a young doctor. On 7th of December 2014 we educated about AIDS and also did charity for ODHA (People with AIDS) which held on Bundaran HI when there was also a “car free day”, so many people came and that was a great opportunity for us. The purpose of this education is to give a knowledge about HIV/AIDS to people, and for people to understand the knowledge so there will be ‘zero discrimination’. This Education also has a goal to train new members of SCOPE and SCORA

CENTER FOR INDONESIAN MEDICAL STUDENTS’ ACTIVITIES to increase their confidence and skill at educating people. This activity’s news was on mass media SINYAL, a subsidiary of mass media KOMPAS. On December 8th 2014, we held the final of English debate competition and spelling bee. The theme that was chosen on the final debate is “It is necessary to give free condoms to prevent HIV/AIDS”. On that day, aside of the English lecturer, we succeed to invite dr. Ibnu Imaduddin, who was also the LOCO CIMSA UIN 2010-2011 period. We also invited President of CIMSA 2013-2014 period, M. Hafif Kusasi as guest judges. This debate was much more interesting because both

teams argued from many perceptions. And the last day of ACE was held on December 16th 2014. That day was our final project, when we held TALKSHOW with dr. Dina Nurul Istiqomah, a general practitioner who had done her internship in Papua, the largest endemic of HIV/AIDS in Indonesia. We also invited two ODHA (People with HIV/AIDS) to be the speakers in our talkshow to share their stories with us, medical students of UIN Jakarta, on how was their experience of their disease affect them. On that day we also held english poster competition of HIV/AIDS and AIDS ribbon photo competition.

POTATO by SCOPE UNPAD

otato (Promoting Outgoing to Go Across the Ocean) is an annual project held by SCOPE CIMSA UNPAD. Exactly as the tin says, this project is held to promote and explain the exchange program such as what the outgoers have to do before doing the exchange if they were interested. Last year was the second year for this project to be held and it was captained by Fauzan Abdul Hadi from the 2013. This event was held on April 7th, 2014with seminar and talkshow as its agenda. On the first session (seminar) LEO for Outgoing SCOPE CIMSA Unpad Frederic Zulkifly explained the exchange procedures including time selection and some requirements. Here the audiences were free to ask whatever they want to knowabout

SCOPE exchange. The next session was the talkshow. On this session, the committee invited dr.Indah Amelia, a lecturer of medical faculty in Unpad and also a supervisor of CIMSA itself. Besides dr. Indah Amelia, the committee also invited dr. Dara. Both of our doctors have gone to France and Italy for the exchange program which held by SCOPE. Unlike the first session which explained the procedures of exchange program, on the second session, the participants were given the amazing story of being an outgouer. It started from some experiences which you’ll gain during the clerkship such as unique cases, meet some new friends, and of course the social programs. Both of our doctors also explained how to get a sponsorship for the exchange and also gave us a reason why we have to

join the exchange program. On the second Q&A session, we gave a 25.000 discount for application form and also gave pamphlets which contain the available country destination and concise description of the most frequently choosed country for the exchange. With the 40 participants, SCOPE CIMSA Unpad succeeded to sell a pretty big amount of application forms. Although it was only held in our campus in Jatinangor, the promotion was pretty successful so our senior on their coassistant stage were also joining our exchange program. Hope it’ll be more successful on the next POTATO 3!!!

n January 17, 2015 SCOPE CIMSA UNISSULA held PDT or Pre Departure Training, we all know this obligatory agenda is aimed to brief the Outgo before they left for their Exchange. This time PDT is made way much different from the previous PDT because we have CILAD, English language institute in UNISSULA, as one of the guest stars on this event. Taken place at C Building FK Unissula, this event was attended by Outgoers for the 2015-2016 period and of course the members CIMSA UNISSULA. This event was started by the ExOutgo, dr. Yoga Paripurna, he described his experiences during the exchange, traveling tips, insurance, etc., the outgo seemed enthusi-

astic to ask dr. Yoga about what will be encountered during their exchange later. Then we jumped to the next agenda from LEO OUTGOING Ika Setia Kusumawati, Ika explained about the Outgoing Exchange procedure including the Outgoing exchange regulations, the Outgo are expected to understand and obey the rules of exchange, especially in accomplishing the Card of Documents. The final agenda on this PDT went to the conversations and traveling tips that were being brought by the representative of CILAD, Miss Riana Permatasari, S. Pd, MA, fyi Miss Riana is the alumni of Ohio State University, USA. She shared a lot of experiences on how it feels like to study abroad, how to deal with

people who have a different culture to ours, and the most important is how to deal with questions about our country and the most sensitive ones, religion. With a relaxed and humorous demeanor Miss Riana implement the Small Group Discussion system and divide the different topic on each group, for example, group 1 is how to deal with the question about Indonesia including its culture and group 2 how to deal with questions about Sholat and Al-Quran. The discussion went very exciting because of the enthusiasm of the participants. This 4-hour event ended at 17.00 and we are very pleased to hold the event that hopefully will be able to expand the horizons about Exchange.

COTRAIN (SCOPE Exchange Training) is an annual project of SCOPE CIMSA UGM that is held to train new members of SCOPEOPLE about SCOPE’s exchange programs. We did have fun! Curious? First of all, there’s a saying “Not knowing, hence do not care”. So we started off by having an intimate SCOPE UGM session, all about SCOPE UGM! : How to handle things needed for incoming and outgoing students. Then, our NEO Outgoing, Armalya Pritazahra gave a session about IFMSA and NEC. Not to mention, also one of the sessions that deals with SCOPE exchange’s

Academic Quality, completed by our seniors’ story about their exchanges. Now, move on to the field session where we all learnt about incoming stuffs. We did a simulation by circling around places in FK UGM and ‘Tour de Sardjito’ where we explored various departments in Sardijto Yogyakarta Hospital ; and also incoming’s place to do their clerkship. It’s not complete without the having-fun part! That’s why after the long walk in Sardjito Yogyakarta Hospital, we went straight to go rafting in Elo River! Accompanied by a GoPro, we took a lot of photos during the 2-hour rafting. It was an unforgettable moment for us SCOPEOPLE

7TH MEDSCO by SCOPE UMY

EDSCO (Medical English and Speech Competition) is the featured project of SECO MMSA UMY. Starting from the wish to actively participate in the Bulan Bahasa which is held by Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta and to forge the students’ charisma and communication skill, an English debate and speech competition called MEDSCO was then established. One thing that set this competition apart from others is its health issues related theme, which is not a common theme to use for students outside health-related faculties. Years to years, health issues that are widely known in Indonesia must be plenty and from there, MEDSCO demands its competitors to further understand those topics in general, and to state their opinions and solutions in a fair and fun competition. Using the pre-eliminary, semifinal, and final system, with a side-serving of a health-related crash course and some entertainments on top, the 7th MEDSCO 2015 will be held with the theme “Universal Health Coverage For A Better Health System in Indonesia”.

What’s special from 7th MEDSCO this time is, this is the first time since it was established in 2009 –when MEDSCO is only intended for Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta’s students— that it will also welcome students from all side of Yogyakarta on April 19 and 26, 2015 to facilitate the students’ euphoria in English debate and speech contest. Because of its different theme, MEDSCO is sure going to be a challenge

for its competitors. This competition’s inviting a competent judge panel and LO –coming from different student debate communities in Yogyakarta— trusted English-learning foundation, and also involving the judge team from Language Learning Center to ensure the winner’s credibility that later will receive the prize such as some money, certificate, trophy, and also prestige for sure. MEDSCO is only one of many projects and activities by SECO MMSA UMY which is potential to be further developed. SECO MMSA UMY will continue observing the students’ potential especially those in medical-related things as a form of our dedication to be medical students that’s beneficial towards the community.

Committees, and more. And then, LEO CIMSA UNS, Andika Pratama, also gave information about SCOPE UNS, and its role in CIMSA, The Local Exchange Committees, and all projects that was held and will be held soon.

n November 27, 2014, SCOPE CIMSA UNS held an annual project called LAPAROSCOPE. This project was used to recruit candidates of new SCOPEOPLE members, and of course, to introduce every single thing about SCOPE and also its projects. This project is a very very important project for all people who want to join CIMSA UNS, and it also to guide them to choose what Standing Committee they want to be in CIMSA. This kind of project was held, obviously, by all Standing Committees of CIMSA UNS. Well, what an important project rite? Then, what exactly were we doin’ on this project? Rise and shine, guys, and check this out. First of all, There were opening speeches from PO of LAPAROSCOPE, Asoka Murascandrika, and from LEO SCOPE UNS, Andika Pratama, and last from LOCO CIMSA UNS, Risnu Ardian Witjaksana. The next agenda, Vice NEO for Internal Affair, Yuscha Anindya, informed to the participants all the things about SCOPE on National, its status in IFMSA, all happening projects, The National Exchange

When Maghrib came, all participants were pleased to have break time. And then, there was Small Working Group. Well, in this SWG, participants discussed so many problems that might happen as Contact Person of Incomings. They also presentated their discussion and made a drama over it. That was very fascinating. After the presentation and drama, participants were sharing experiences and going to know about outgoing. There were the former LEO of SCOPE UNS, Kunti Nurul, and the former member of SCOPE UNS, Almas Mirza, who gave the story of being an outgoer, and also the benefits on going exchange, specifically as a medical student. And, LAPAROSCOPE ended at 8.00 pm, and of course, took picture of all us together. As this program was running, of course, all participants got so many advantages, and the decision to choose what Standing Committee they might fit in. But still, this project have to be evaluated for more prosperous project ahead. And that’s all the things I could share about this project. I hope this will give many advantages for all readers, and this project can be done better. Amiin.

EXPEDITION by SCOPE UB

XPEDITION is one of the flagship projects in Brawijaya University, Malang. As we can see from its name, EXPEDITION aims to promote exchange programs (either Professional or Research) of IFMSA to the students and also to increase their interests toward exchange by organizing a poster design competition. Why so? In poster design competition, participants were competing to make a poster on “Why you have to choose this country as exchange destination” Then, how do we promote exchange programs to the students? By making an exchange expo! Held from May 24-26th 2014, this exchange expo contained all information relating to exchange as well as displayed the results of the poster design competition, in which the two winners were chosen by voting. Themed superhero, the committee decorated the expo with superhero characters such as Superman, Spiderman, and Iron Man. They also added photo booth outside the expo and action figures in some spots.

In the expo, the committee had set up a plot so visitors who come didn’t feel confused and lost. It started with registration, visitors got 1 questionnaire, 1 superhero sticker (to vote on the poster), and 1 mini flag to write comments and suggestions regarding the event. The first destination was ‘vote for the best poster ‘ in which the committee had been put the posters and visitors were asked to put the sticker below their favorite poster. After that, they were directed to the exchange flowchart. Uniquely, the committee had made the chart into a comic, where Gatotkaca (Indonesia’s original superhero) applies to go exchange to USA! Complete with the information and some examples of the documents needed like Exchange Condition, Application Form, Card of Acceptance, etc. This comic got a lot of appreciation from the visitors. Third stop was the ‘world map’, where visitors could stick the notes that had been prepared to the country they want to visit someday. They wrote down their hope and the reason why they choose that country.

The journey ended in exchange corner, which was an exchange consultation desk. The highlight of this event was on the last day of the expo since there was churros party! So anyone who came on that day could enjoy free churros. Besides, the winners of the poster design competition were announced as well. They received money and merchandise as the prizes. Overall, this project is well done. Approximately 274 people who came agree that the event was very useful and they hope that this project will be held again next year. Some also felt that with this project, their interests to apply for exchange were increased. It can be proved from the number of exchange applicants who had reached the target and increased from the last year. Moreover, EXPEDITION had been selected as the Best Project Fair in SCOPE CIMSA Weekend Exchange Training 2014. Hopefully this project can be beneficial and inspires beloved SCOPEans out there!

SCOPEXPEDITION by SCOPE UNAIR

tanding Committee on Professional Exchange (SCOPE) Universitas Airlangga firmly believes that within a great organization, regeneration is fundamentally important. One of the few actions we did to build a bonding atmosphere between the members and the newbies is simply spending a great time with each other. This is the foundation why SCOPE UNAIR created its pilot project, SCOPExpedition 2014 in the first place. Of course, there are other goals we are trying to perceived, e.g. 1. Developing CIMSA Newbies’ sense of belonging to CIMSA, especially to SCOPE. 2. Enhancing self-confidence level of every members and newbies. 3. Preparing the newbies for SCOPE-related works concerning the city of Surabaya and the city’s tourist attrac-

tions since it is integral to our Incoming Hosting program. Persuading the newbies to choose SCOPE as their first choice in the CIMSA UNAIR’s internship program

You all might be wondering about point number 4, so yes in our local each newbies are given the right to choose between two Standing Committees for their internship program. And at the end of the internship period, they will submit their final choice with percentage of preference for both of the SCOs. So it is imperative for SCOPE UNAIR to make something different since we don’t usually have many incomings for their internship period. Oh to make things more interesting we also included our incoming in this project, so the newbies can also get some pre-exposure to the incoming hosting experience.

Okay now it’s time to cut the chase and we will explain to you guys about SCOPExpedition 2014. This project was created when SCOPEople of UNAIR are brainstorming projects that SCOPE can do to attract newbies. We agreed to make an amazing race-esque event, which at the time seemed really impossible to do since that was our first event. Thank god! We managed to pull it out beautifully. So the race began at 8 am in the morning of November 29th with the starting line in the campus ground, well you guys know the famous Faculty of Medicine Universitas Airlangga. The newbies are divided into teams of three and each of the team at the very least consisted of one Surabaya native and one person that bring their own car (yes they drove their own car and don’t worry we compensated their fuel). Each team has

PERISCOPE 4TH EDITION VOL. 2 | FEB - MAY 2015 their own liaison officer (SCOPEople) that goes around with them throughout the race, keeping their money for parking and entrance fees, without them knowing that each LOs are also assessing which of the newbies are worthy-enough and passionate-enough about SCOPE and its hospitality-based work. Each team got an envelope filled with clues about the location of each places that they have to visit and perform certain physical feats, mental tasks, and work together to overcome each challenges in order to get a piece of clue where the finish line is. They have to drive themselves to each designated

2. Gedung Balai Kota The city hall has so many historical events surrounding it even from the age of the Dutch colonialization, so with the combination of dutch and pribumi architecture style, it was the perfect place for challenges plus the place is massive. The challenge there was each team has to eat certain foods and beverages in a cup until they found five marked cups, the markings were in the bottom of the cup. 3. Tugu Pahlawan Nothing is more unique in Surabaya compared to Tugu Pahlawan. It has a beautiful garden with the monument of course. The challenge here was doing Indonesian traditional games that typically played near the Independence Day, things like walking while putting a marble with spoon and playing with needle to get it inside of a bottle. 4. Kenjeran Park

places. There were 6 places that each team has to visit and we will tell you guys about the places with the challenge down below: 1.. Monumen Kapal Selam The iconic replica of a submarine in the heart of Surabaya captivated many incomingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hearts back in the summer. Each team was given three pictures by the members that stay in that meeting point and the must take pictures of the same frame just like in the paper. It might be a little bit confusing for you guys, but the submarine has thousands of similar buttons and panels so the task was a little bit challenging.

Kenjeran is a special region in east Surabaya that has a view of the ocean and a beach. We choose Kenjeran Park as our place of designated because there are also Buddhist temple, artifacts, and ornaments. The statues there are so amazingly complicated we made it as the object of the challenge. Each team had to correctly answer one question about the statue. The members were overwhelmed by the keen eyes and sharp memory skills of the newbies since we firstly thought that this was supposed to be a difficult challenge. 5. Kebun Bibit Surabaya This place is one of the best parks in the center of Surabaya. It also got dears, real living dears roaming around this park. The task given to

each team here was treasure hunting. They had to find things according to the clues given to them. Ironically every team told us that this challenge was the longest and the most physically draining task compared to other challenge. 6. Surabaya Town Square People called this place by its abbreviation, SUTOS and this shopping center or should we say food court (this place got a lot more restaurants than shops) offer a different mall experience compared to other malls in Surabaya. Kinda like the Groove in Los Angeles, this mall is also give you an outdoor feeling to it. The challenge here was to find out incoming student at that time Alexandros from Greece in one of the coffee shop on the first floor. Funny there are lots of foreigners that day making it hard to find Alex. When they found Alex they have to ask him a list of essential questions when they first meet their incomings and make a video of it. Asking Alex to do a selfie with each team was also a part of the challenge. 7. Pit stop: Airlangga Medical Education Centre (AMEC) Rooftop The iconic rooftop was the pitstop of the race that day. It was a wonderful afternoon when the first team arrived in the rooftop. Somehow that torturing sunny sky of Surabaya was covered by clouds and everything was clicked together. We said that was fun. We ended things with a photo session with the newbies and had lunch in the best sushi place in town (it was on us! Lol).

Interview with dr. Meilania Saraswati, SpPA NEO CIMSA 2001-2002 VPE CIMSA 2002-2003

CENTER FOR INDONESIAN MEDICAL STUDENTSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ACTIVITIES Apa sajakah kesibukan dokter sekarang? Saya sekarang menjadi staf Departemen Patologi Anatomi FKUI-RSCM. Aktivitas saya seharihari mengajar, mengurusi hal-hal terkait pelayanan pasien, laboraturium, dan hal-hal terkait institusi. Selain itu, saya juga Editor Majalah Kedokteran Indonesia. Mengapa memilih untuk menjadi Spesialis Patologi Anatomi? Keputusan saya ini seperti unexpected turn of event, sebelumnya tidak pernah terpikirkan untuk masuk patologi anatomi karena menurut saya PA itu suatu subjek yang cukup sulit. Kemudian, tiba-tiba saya banyak berhubungan dengan patologi ketika ayah saya sakit, lalu saya ditawari untuk men jadi staf di PA sekaligus ditawari melanjutkan pendidikan juga. Bagaimana pendapat dokter mengenai CIMSA dan SCOPE saat ini? Apa perbedaan dan perubahan-perubahan dibandingkan dulu? Terus terang saya tidak terlalu update dangan kondisi yang terjadi saat ini, tetapi cara berpikir orang-orangnya, cara berdiskusi, kemudian visi dan misi dibandingkan kami waktu dulu baru mulai itu sekarang sangat-sangat maju. Bagi saya, sekarang CIMSA sudah berpikir jauh sekali, konsep organisasi yang jauh lebih baik daripada dulu . Sekarang CIMSA sudah berada di tahap developing, jadi mengeksplor hal-hal baru dan saya lihat sudah banyak sekali yang berperan di tahap regional dan tahap internasional. Jauh banget lah kita 2001. Sudah 14 tahun. Pengembangan fundraising juga sudah bagus sekali, banyak merchandise bagus-bagus yang bisa dikenal banyak orang. Sekarang CIMSA

sudah sangat maju dan mimpimimpinya sudah berbeda dari kita dahulu, which is good. Bagaimana keadaan SCOPE pada saat awal berdirinya CIMSA? SCOPE itu dulu seperti backbonenya CIMSA. Aktivitas SCOPE paling awal dibandingkan yang lain karena layout sudah ada, outline sudah ada, media untuk melakukan kegiatan juga sudah ada. Di SCOPE juga ada fee administrasi, meskipun sedikit bisa menjadi pemasukan untuk starting awal CIMSA karena waktu sebagai organisasi yang saat itu baru berdiri. Jumlah outgoing jauh lebih sedikit dibandingkan incoming karena pendidikan kedokteran saat itu sangat strict dan tidak ada libur. Bisa dihitung dengan jari lah. Padahal, outgoing SCOPE harus mahasiswa klinik sementara di tahap klinik tidak ada space untuk melakukan elective posting. Hal ini membuat banyak orang memilih untuk lulus tepat waktu dan tidak melakukan exchange. Akan tetapi, ada beberapa orang yang memilih exchange dan mereka sampai saat ini selalu mengatakan bahwa â&#x20AC;&#x153;saya tidak menyesal memilih itu karena exchange memberikan pengalaman sendiri, tetapi tidak semua orang menyadari hal tersebutâ&#x20AC;? Untuk incoming, tempat-tempat belum terlalu establish tetapi semua incoming waktu itu ingin pergi ke Bali. Padahal Bali memiliki exchange program sendiri jadi ketika itu cukup menyulitkan SCOPE. Kita akhirnya memutar otak. Saat itu incoming lebih banyak liburannya daripada elective postingnya jadi that present a problem.

rang media komunikasi itu sudah banyak, dahulu kita hanya melalui email dan sms. Komunikasi ke luar negeri juga tidak terlalu lancar. Dahulu ada incoming yang tiba-tiba ada di Indonesia, kita meminta tolong UNPAD tetapi ada sedikit miskomunikasi. Alhasil, incomingnya sudah ada di Bandungtetapi tidak ada satu orang pun yang menghubungi. Ada pula outgoing yang ketika itu ditawari bantuan tetapi dia menjawab tidak butuh apa-apa. Ternyata dia tidak mengurus visa, hanya mengurus tiket, kemudian dia tidak bisa berangkat padahal waktu itu ke negara skandinavia. Tapi setelah dikoordinasikan, dia bisa berangkat beberapa hari kemudian dengan denda tiket pesawat. Kendala lain sih tidak ada kecuali CIMSA sebagai suatu organisasi yang baru masih mendapat resistensi dari beberapa universitas. Selain itu, waktu itu kita baru berdiri jadi kerjanya belum banyak yang diakui Apakah sekarang masih sering berkomunikasi dengan sesama alumni CIMSA? Kami punya grup Whatsapp untuk alumni dari angkatan paling tua, ada sekian banyak orang dan biasanya juga ada informasiinformasi tentang CIMSA dari Alumni Director. Apakah dokter pernah mengikuti exchange? Tidak pernah, waktu itu berencana untuk exchange tetapi ayah saya waktu itu sakit akhirnya tidak jadi berangkat. Bagaimana dengan GA IFMSA dok? Saya datang waktu GA IFMSA di Malta. The First GAnya CIMSA tahun 2001

Komunikasi dahulu belum selengkap sekarang, karena seka-

PERISCOPE 4TH EDITION VOL. 2 | FEB - MAY 2015 Ketika mengikuti International Meeting di Malta, hal apa saja yang dokter dapatkan? Dari GA kita sadar bahwa we’re dealing with business lho.We’re not just playing. Apapunyang keluar dari sana benar-benar ada follow up-nya, diikuti, pertemuan itu hanya untuk ajang tatap muka. Waktu rapat begitu terstruktur sampai tidak memungkinkan diskusi-diskusi yang tidak perlu. Jadi saya banyak belajar mekanisme organisasi di meeting internasional yang tidak pernah terpikirkan sebelumnya. Sebagai contoh, kita tidak boleh raising issue tanpa memasukkan sebelumnya, jadi terdapat semacam filter. Meeting ini hanya untuk membahas hal-hal yang telah ditentukan. Kemudian, jika kita ingin berpendapat harus tau kapan kita bisa berpendapat dan kita juga harus memastikan bahwa pendapat kita masuk akal dan didukung orang lain. Mereka juga sangat membatasi waktu, mereka tepat dengan waktu sehingga kalau sesuatu berjalan berlebih, mereka menggunakan mekanisme tertentu seperti voting atau mekanisme lain, efektif banget. Terus terang, GA di Malta adalah pengalaman pertama dan terakhir ke pertemuan seperti itu. Datang ke GA, bengongbengong aja tiba-tiba ada orang yang ngangkat bendera dan ada kotak-kotak komunikasi. Hal itu belum pernah ada di rapat mahasiswa di Indonesia saat itu. Selain itu, Presiden IFMSA itu presiden beneran, dia bertemu dengan ketua WHO dan pejabat-pejabat penting lain, dia bekerja erat dengan WHO, UN, dan seterusnya yang menurut saya wow banget. Sangat tidak terpikirkan. Dengan datang kesana, kita jadi berpikir lebih luas lagi dan kita tidak hanya berpikir bahwa kita hanya mahasiswa. Saya rasa luar biasa. Kepercayaan diri kita setelah datang ke sana itu bisa meningkat

lho, jadi mau ketemu menteri, presiden, wapres, santai saja. Menurut dokter, mangapa mahasiswa kedokteran harus mengikuti exchange? Sebenarnya semua orang harus exchange, bukan hanya mahasiswa kedokteran. Exchange diperlukan karena ketika kita akan mengaplikasikan ilmu, hardskill saja tidak cukup, kita

“Manfaat

yang paling

terasa itu bekerja secara

profesional” membutuhkan hal-hal lain dan ketika kita mendapat pengalaman seperti exchange, dengan berada di luar negeri setidaknya kita tahu apa yang terjadi di luar sana. Kita akan keluar dari kotak kita, kemudian kita bisa melihat cara kerja orang yang berbeda. Ketika di Indonesia, kalau kita menyelesaikan sautu masalah kita bisa melihatnya dengan berbagai perspektif, tidak seperti kacamata kuda. Hal terpenting dari exchange adalah pengalaman. Pengalaman melihat apa yang terjadi di luar zona kita sehingga pengalaman tersebut dapat menjadi bahan-bahan kita untuk ke depannya. Hal apakah yang paling dokter dirindukan dari CIMSA?

Meeting! Rapat CIMSA itu benarbenar bisa mulai dari jam tujuh pagi sampai jam 2 malam, tidur sebentar, rapat lagi. Gila banget rapatnya. Orang-orangnya luar biasa, kerjanya sangat efektif, dan kita tidak pernah debat kusir yang terlalu lama dan tidak ada satupun yang mengeluarkan opini hanya karena egonya sendiri. Hal yang SCOPE?

dirindukan

dari

Welcoming people. Dulu sangat susah mencari outgoing. Tujuan SCOPE sebenarnya adalah exchange murah kan. Akan tetapi, kadang-kadang tidak sejalan dengan kebijakan berbagai universitas yang meminta institutional fee. Apa sajakah manfaat yang bisa didapatkan sebagai member SCOPE? Menjadi anggota SCOPE CIMSA itu belajar manajemen. Tidak gampang lho memanajemen orang datang dan pergi, seperti menjadi travel agent. Aktif di SCOPE itu seru, belajar bagaimana untuk make sure orang dalam suatu hal. It’s really learning about business. Dahulu kami juga sempat untuk mencanangkan program beasiswa bagi outgoing, tetapi tidak terlaksana. Ada beberapa outgoing yang bisa exchange for free karena ada beasiswa dari negara tujuannya, seharusnya informasiinformasi seperti itu bisa digali lagi, sehingga lebih banyak orang yang bisa exchange lagi. Manfaat yang paling terasa itu bekerja secara profesional. Kita belajar membuat laporan-laporan yang sistematis dan jelas. Selain itu, menjadi anggota SCOPE menjadikan saya terbiasa membuat laporan. Bermanfaat banget untuk dunia kerja.

CENTER FOR INDONESIAN MEDICAL STUDENTSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ACTIVITIES Arti SCOPE bagi dokter? SCOPE dan CIMSA bagi saya tidak bisa dipisahkan. Kenangan terindah, saat-saat yang menyenangkan. Masuk SCOPE dan CIMSA saya betul-betul belajar berorganisasi kemudian kita belajar banyak hal, banyak materi organisasi termasuk SWOT analysis yang tidak pernah terbayang sebelumnya. Belajar threat itu apa, bagaimana menghadapi threat. CIMSA dan SCOPE adalah organisasi tempat saya besar. Apakah harapan dokter untuk CIMSA dan SCOPE? Yang pertama tetap ada, itu yang paling penting. Setelah itu, CIMSA dan SCOPE harus bisa membuat inovasi-inovasi baru. Orang yang pergi exchange ke luar negeri bisa berbagi pengalaman saat pulang, bisa berbagi cerita ke orang-orang di sekitarnya. Jadi kita tidak seperti katak dalam tempurung doang. Profesionalisme itu harapannya bisa ditularkan disini. CIMSA sebagai wadah aktivitas, kita adalah organisasi yang menginspirasi orang untuk berbuat sesuatu. Aktivitas itu yang harus didorong oleh CIMSA. SCOPE juga harus diperluas lagi, misalnya dengan memperbanyak jumlah anggota, kemudian reaching out ke daerah-daerah terpencil, serta bekerja sama dengan pembuat kebijakan untuk memajukan pendidikan kedokterran. Ada banyak sekali hal yang perlu dan bisa didorong oleh mahasiswa karena ternyata masih banyak hal yang tidak diperhatikan oleh orang-orang yang sekarang duduk di pemangku kebijakan Sekarang saya ingin membicarakan tentang pendidikan kedokteran. Jadi, saya mahasiswa magister pendidikan kedokteran. Duhulu, sama sekali tidak terbayang apa sih jobdesk SCOME, apa-

kah penting atau tidak. Namun, begitu saya masuk ke pendidikan kedokteran ternyata pendidikan sendiri harus dipikirkan. Proses pendidikan dan apa yang ingin dimasukkan itu harus dievaluasi, harus dibuat kurikulum yang benar,dan saya baru menyadari sekarang bahwa peran SCOME itu sangat besar. Terlebih lagi, tidak ada satupun atau hanya segelintir orang yang

â&#x20AC;&#x153;SCOPE dan CIMSA

tidak bisa dipisahkan.

Kenangan terindah. menyadari bahayanya kondisi pendidikan kedokteran saat ini. Dengan jumlah fakultas kedokteran yang semakin banyak dan tidak terkendali, pengaturan dan monitoringnya tidak ter-follow up, lulusannya mau menjadi apa dan nanti di masyarakat berperan sebagai apa, serta bagaimana nanti upgrading-nya. Hal-hal seperti itu hanya sedikit yang memikirkan. Saya rasa CIMSA bisa menjadi pendorong untuk perubahan yang signifikan di pendidikan kedokteran. Kita kan bermain di stratergi, pushing strategy dan pushing changes.

Selain itu, jangan sampai CIMSA menjadi organisasi yang hilang dari akarnya yaitu untuk membangkitkan aktivitas mahasiswa. Hal yang kita pikirkan juga adalah CIMSA akan dibawa kemana nantinya. CIMSA harus seperti sekolah . Kebanyakan lulusan CIMSA itu banyak yang bekerja di organisasi. In the end, dimanapun mereka bekerja, mereka selalu jadi leader dan selalu mengembangkan diri. Apakah dengan sekolah lagi atau dengan cara lain. Lulusan CIMSA bisa menginspirasi orang lain untuk berpikir extraordinary, tidak sesuai biasanya. Member SCOPE biasanya datang dengan berbagai motivasi. Apakah pesan dokter untuk SCOPEOPLE? Semua orang orang memiliki motivasi masing-masing ketika memasuki suatu organisasi. Hal terpenting adalah bagaimana organisasi tersebut membentuk orang-orang itu sesuai dengan tujuannyaa. SCOPE harus mendefinisikan visi dan misinya, kemudian membernya diarahkan. In that way, berarti harus ada pelatihan, banyak sharing, diskusi tentang peran SCOPE dalam pendidikan kedokteran. In the end, SCOPE harus menginspirasi semua anggotanya bahwa ke luar negeri itu bukan hura-hura, kemudian kita bekerja bukan untuk diri kita sendiri saja. Itu harus ditekankan, misalnya kita minta report ke outgoing, nanti informasinya bisa di-share ke SCO lain sebagai bahan diskusi.
