Annotation
The subject of pathological physiology II follows on from the subject of pathological physiology I. Pathological physiology II includes in the all knowledge and skills that are the content of the subject of pathological physiology I.
Pathological physiology II adds other areas of general and special pathophysiology. General pathophysiology deals with the general principles of origin, development and course of diseases and pathological conditions and pathological phenomena of a general nature.
The subject of special pathophysiology is the etiology and pathogenesis of diseases and disorders of specific organs, organ systems and particular diseases. Practical skills related to basic medical procedures and their pathophysiological aspects in the context of theoretical knowledge are also taught.
Prerequisites are knowledge from the fields to which pathological physiology follows, i.e. anatomy, histology, embryology, biology, genetics, chemistry and biochemistry, biophysics, physiology and microbiology. The subject includes practicing and extending knowledge and skills from the subject pathological physiology I and explaining them in the context of new knowledge and skills.
