Syllabus (in Czech)

The student completes 7 hours of practical exercises per week divided into 2 teaching units of 3.5 hours. One teaching block is internal, supplemented by an internship at the anaesthesiology-resuscitation clinic. The second one is surgical supplemented by 1 internship in paediatric surgery and 1 internship in plastic surgery. In the 13th and 14th weeks, teaching is only in SIMU, where the focus is on practicing practical skills.

Teaching methods (in Czech)

Practicals always have a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is devoted to the above-mentioned topic, practical (for which the main emphasis is placed) – at the patient (taking of personal and medical history, examination of individual organs), basic examination methods (ultrasound, X-ray, laboratory findings, ECG). Practical training (about 50 % 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 to 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 (in Czech)

The evaluation consists of several components. In Clinical introduction III, you need to complete attendance requirements in internal medicine and surgery clinics, pass a practical OSCE exam and a theoretical exam.
All the details of the OSCE exam are placed in the interactive course syllabus and the student is obliged to get acquainted with them.
