Synopsis:

This subject aims to provide an overview of the basic mechanisms of pathophysiological process in development of major body systems disorders. This course provides the understanding of the common disorder effects on normal structure and function, and so expands knowledge in basic anatomy and physiology previously studied. At the end of course the students has orientation in the pathophysiology of diseases in the major organ systems (cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, renal, and respiratory) and understand the cellular mechanisms responsible for impaired function.

Requirements:

Assessment:

1. To attend lectures and practical classes (absences are acceptable for serious reasons only (max. 3 absences per semester) and must be apologized and recompensed).

2. To have protocols from classes.

3. Supervisor may control preparedness of student by tests (at least 50 % of right questions), discussion, presence of work papers.

4. To prepare an oral presentation (list of topics will be given by supervisor, presentation for 10 min).

Exam:
