Prerequisites
To understand physiological principles and regularities, the subject physiology builds on the basic knowledge of the morphology of the human organism (secondary school biology - anatomy, histology), physical and chemical laws (biophysics, organic/anorganic chemistry).
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is only offered to the students of the study fields the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
The subject physiology, from the perspective of theory and practice, acquaints students with the functions of a healthy human organism, from the cellular level through individual organ systems to the organism as a whole. A very important part of the course is to familiarize students with regulatory functions that ensure the dynamic stability of the internal environment of the organism. Physiology is a collection of knowledge about the functions of an ideal, average person, with an emphasis on the existence of inter- and intra-individual differences in the population, which can manifest themselves especially in disease.
Learning outcomes
After completing the course, the student will be able to: - explain the technical principles of basic examination methods in medicine (listening, blood pressure measurement, estimation of electrical signals of the heart and brain, spirometry) - explain the basic principles of the functioning of the human body - explain the basic principles of regulation in the organism (nervous, humoral) - explain and practically perform a basic examination of a healthy adult
Syllabus
  • Red blood cell count. Estimation of haemoglobin concentration and of mean corpuscular haemoglobin. Estimation of blood group by slide method. Erythrocyt sedimentation rate. Estimation of osmotic resistance of red blood cells.

Literature
Teaching methods
The course is organized in the form of laboratory practices where students examine each other by given method, and they prepare the report from measured data.
Assessment methods
Credits are given on the basis of full attendance in practices, handling of all laboratory reports, writing 3 topic-tests, and writing credit-test. The topic-test consists of 10 questions evaluated by10 points - students successfully pass the test if they reach at least 5 points. The credit-test consists of 20 questions evaluated by 20 points - students successfully pass the test if they reach at least 12 points.
