Annotation
Pathophysiology represents a logical approach to each disease in terms of its causes and development, therefore it is a necessary basis for clinical subjects. In this subject, the student more integrates already acquired knowledge than memorizes new ones.
The second, summer semester of teaching is focused on the special pathophysiology of the kidneys, endocrine system, gastrointestinal tract, and nervous system. In the practical part, students continue to describe the most common pathological ECG findings and their interpretation into specific diagnoses.
In the framework of interactive analyzes of case studies using the Internet, they apply the knowledge acquired from previous lessons. Examination of urine sediment and oral glucose tolerance test are examples of laboratory techniques and demonstrations of some pathologies.
