DEAN’S OVERVIEW

The activities of the Faculty over the year in review were dominated by the continued MB BS Graduation Rates at Cave Hill by Year economic crisis which, to a great extent, has resulted from the shortfall in Government contributions to the Cave Hill Campus over the last several years. A recent decision by the Government requiring Barbadian students to pay tuition fees will take effect in September 2014 and is expected to have a negative impact on student enrolment across the Faculties in the coming academic year. As a result, the Faculty of Medical Sciences has been working with the other faculties and the Campus Administration to counter the effects of these economic challenges while maintaining the standards of its educational programmes and the quality of its research output.

The second cohort of students to enter the full five-year MB BS Degree programme at Cave Hill wrote their final examinations in May/June 2014 along with their counterparts from Mona and St. Augustine. Of the thirty-two successful new doctors in this examination, three were awarded Honours Degrees at the annual graduation ceremony in October. Overseas Student Elective Programme The Faculty of Medical Sciences at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital continues to coordinate an active clinical elective programme for medical students from international medical The MB BS Undergraduate Programme schools. Between 2009 and 2012, over three hundred such students were accepted Since 2008, the number of new students admitted to the MB BS programme each year for placements at the QEH. The funds generated from this programme are used to averages just over 60 with total enrolment in all five years now standing at over 300. assist our own students to pursue their clinical electives overseas.

Traditionally, the majority of these students have come from institutions in the United Kingdom and Admissions at Cave Hill by Year Germany but there are also students from North America and Scandinavia and from as far away as Australia and New Zealand. There has also recently been a number from the Austria.

Admissions at Cave Hill by Year

There has been an increase in the number of students graduating at Cave Hill in the last two years. This increase reflects the addition of the first two Cave Hill cohorts to those from admitted at Mona or St. Augustine who opt to transfer to Barbados for their clinical years. 80 Faculty of Medical Sciences

We wish him all the best in the years ahead.

WORK OF DEPARTMENT PROGRAMME 1: HEALTH SURVEILLANCE

Following is a synopsis of the work performed by staff of the CDRC: The first programme in our research strategy is non-communicable disease (NCD) surveillance in Barbados. This is motivated by the paucity of prospective data on NCD The centre has the following EIGHT 5-year aims: incidence and mortality for Barbados and the wider Caribbean, and now forms the core of NCD epidemiology within the department. • To establish robust systems for monitoring the burden of chronic non- Developed out of Barbados communicable diseases. 1A.

In addition to incidence and mortality data from the national NCD surveillance systems from the BNR to date, containing data for 2009 –2011, with the next 2 years of (sub-programme 1: registries), there are numerous funded and ongoing research projects data (for 2012 and 2013) currently in preparation. Data from these years show that (sub-programme 2: research). These projects collect new data (eg. Health of the Nation there are about 321 acute myocardial infarctions (heart attacks) per year, or almost survey), draw directly on Barbados surveillance data (eg.

A core feature across all projects is the application of the Centre’s analytical expertise However, about 1/5 men with an acute MI and 1/5 men with stroke were younger to convert raw data to meaningful evidence on health and healthcare.

In secure databasing of ongoing projects, for data curation and data archiving of completed his letter, Edward Greene praised this “Tech based Initiative” in the following words: projects, and for data analysis. “Not only does it provide tremendous opportunities for researchers and practitioners to collaborate and push the frontiers of knowledge and policy making to achieve the end of AIDS in Barbados and the region but it will indeed contribute to the empowerment of those that are infected and affected by the disease.” And he concluded: “I will certainly bring this laudable programme to the attention of the UN Secretary General and am sure that he has no reservation joining me in extending warm wishes for its success. It is indeed a valiant step in the direction of including the target of ending AIDS in the post 2015 development agenda.” Project Investigators: Clive Landis, Ian Hambleton, Caroline Allen, Chris Halsall, Cave Hill Campus IT.
