Course objectives

At the end of the course students should be able to understand how to examine the orthopaedic patient (history, objective examination of the locomotor apparatus), should be able to apply imaging methods and laboratory tests leading to establishing of the diagnosis, should be able to distinquish among other conditions and to suggest the mangement of the condition. The student would be able to asses the prognosis of the condition.

Learning outcomes

The student will be able:
- to examine orthopaedic patient,
- to perform clinical examamination,
- to use laboratory test and to advice imaging methods,
- to establish diagnossis and to suggest the therapy.

Syllabus

Programme of the course: Orthopaedics and rehabilitation The fourth school year of the general medicine, VLOR7X1. The course is dividend into a theoretical introduction and to presentation of cases in the ward.
Clinical methods - history (family, personal) symptoms of the disease, analysis of the pain, mechanism of injury, any treatment of the disease, the efect of drugs. Impairment of the function, deformity, analysis of the gait.
objective examination: inspection, palpation, percussion, auscultation, range of motion, examination of the spine, of upper and lower extremity. - additional examination methods (X-ray, radiological stress tests, artrography, fistulography, myelography, angiography, CT, MRI, scintigraphy, ultrasonography, densitometry etc). Laboratory methods: aspiration of the joint fluid, blood tests. Electromyography. Topics:
Degenerative diseases (osteoarthrosis, pathological anatomy, clinical symptoms and findings, radiological examination). Conservative and operative treatment.
Malalignment of extremities (coxa valga, coxa vara, anteverta, genua vara, valga). Static deformities of foot (flat foot, talipes calcaneus, equinovarus, excavatus). Deformity of upper extremity (cubitus varus, valgus, Madelung deformity, etc).

Teaching methods

The course is divided into a theoretical introduction with case reports and into presentation of the patients in the wards focused on the use of examination methods, on establishing of the diagnosis and the management of the conditions. Practical training (about 20 % of the total volume of teaching) is complemented by a comprehensive range of simulation teaching methods on simulators with varying degrees of fidelity, trainers and virtual patients. Simulation results in subsequent debriefing (feedback to the student). There is also problem-oriented learning in the foreground, where the student is taught by solving the problem presented, as well as team-oriented teaching when small groups of students discuss and choose a solution of the problem. Emphasis is also placed on the development of soft skills, incl. so-called "21st century skills", particularly communication, decision-making skills, critical thinking, crisis communication and teamwork.

Assessment methods

The students are examined from this subject at the rigorous examination from surgery in the sixth school year. The knowledge of recommended literature and power point presentations on IS portal are required. Traditional methods are complemented by objective clinical evaluation that verifies clinical knowledge and other skills such as communication, physical examination, performance, performance interpretation, etc. This evaluation method provides students with objective and specific feedback.
