Course objectives

At the end of the course, students should be able to apply practically the methods used for examination of the functions of human organ systems. Students will be capable of interpreting the acquired records with respect to physiological processes taking place in human organisms. Next, the students will derive and calculate other parameters and indices routinely used in clinical practice. Students will be able to evaluate the results acquired both by measurement and by calculation, and to explain possible deviations.

Teaching methods

The course is organized in the form of laboratory practices where students examine each other by given method, and they prepare the report from measured data.

Assessment methods

Credits are given on the basis of full attendance in practices, handling of all laboratory reports, writing 3 topic-tests, and writing credit-test. The topic-test consists of 10 questions evaluated by10 points - students successfully pass the test if they reach at least 5 points. The credit-test consists of 20 questions evaluated by 20 points - students successfully pass the test if they reach at least 12 points.
