Summary and Revision
Annotation
The Physiology subject is read in winter and summer semesters. There are 37 lectures in winter semester and 42 lectures in summer semester. The lectures in the winter semester include physiology of the cell, general neurophysiology including physiology of muscles, blood, circulatory, respiratory and digestive systems. In the summer semester, regulation in which kidneys, the endocrine system and central nervous system take part are dealt with.
Practical labs is aimed at verification of theoretical knowledge and at training certain skills through investigation of some functions of the human organism and their regulatory mechanisms as well as through experiments on animals. Computer models and patient simulators complement the labs. There are 15 lab sessions in winter semester, each one lasting 4 teaching hours (60 teaching hours altogether) and 8 lab sessions in summer semester. The conditions for gaining the credits in either semester include active work in particular practical and a successful outcome of the revision tests.
