Course objectives

Human physiology is defined as a science of the functions of healthy organism at the level of cell, tissue, organ and organ systems. Pathophysiology is focused on etiopathogenesis - the mechanisms which lead from the primary cause via individual malfunctions to subsequent development of clinical symptoms of disease. Knowledge of these mechanisms serves to develop a suitable and efficient therapy and prevent resultant damage.

Learning outcomes

After completing the course, the student will be able to: - describe the physiology and pathophysiology of the main organs - recognize subjective and objective symptoms of diseases - examine the main physiological functions - interpret examination results

Teaching methods

Lectures, seminars, exercises, exercises in selected examination techniques, acquired data analysis, consultations Teaching will take place online until the epidemiological situation is eased. Lectures will usually be available asynchronously with the online availability of the teacher. Exercises will usually take place synchronously. The method of teaching is decided by the relevant teacher with the consent of the subject guarantor.

Assessment methods

To gain the credit, it is necessary 100% participation in the exercises and fulfillment of the assignment of the exercise. The teacher decides the fulfillment of the obligations arising from the exercises. A seminar work on given topics or a written test can be assigned. Completion of the course - oral exam. Students randomly choose three questions from three areas. It is necessary to answer all three questions. Questions are available in the Teams of the course

Language of instruction

English

Further comments (probably available only in Czech)

Study Materials
The course can also be completed outside the examination period.
