Course objectives
This course includes information about the origin, development, structure and function of the system of hematopoietic cells and organs as well as of the blood clotting system. Both of them are described not only in health but also during various diseases inherited and acquired. Students will receive information summarizing pathophysiologic mechanisms, clinical and mainly laboratory findings in hematologic diseases and laboratory assays serving for treatment’s maintenance. The knowledge will allow students to interpret results obtained during hematological laboratory examination for diagnosis establishing and/or for differential diagnoses.
Learning outcomes
Basic principles of hematologic assays, incl. good laboratory practice. Student is able to: -indentify basic types of blood elements of peripheral blood and bone marrow, -interpret findings CBC blood count, -provide basic coagulation assays, -interpret basic coagulation tests.
