Course objectives
To teach the student clinically relevant examination methods and interpretation of their results in the context of physiology.
Learning outcomes
Upon completion of this course, the student will:
- have a practical knowledge of methods of investigation of the functions of human organ systems,
- interpret the obtained records in relation to the physiological processes taking place in the human organism,
- derive and calculate other parameters commonly used in clinical practice from records
- be able to evaluate the results obtained by both measurement and calculation and explain any deviations.
Syllabus
  • Assessment of nutritional status.
  • Determination of the sensitivity of the respiratory center to hypercapnia.
  • Temporal and spatial summation of the u costal muscle.
  • Blood pressure in the  man. Non-invasive methods of blood pressure measurement.
  • Determination of energy expenditure by indirect calorimetry. Determination of energy expenditure by calculation.

  • Heart beat, cardiac echoes. Determination of phases of cardiac systole by polygraphic recording.
  • Pulse wave velocity. Sphygmography.
Literature
Teaching methods
The teaching is conducted in the form of laboratory exercises, where students examine each other by a given method and draw up a protocol from the measured data.
Assessment methods
Students move on to continuing education in the next semester without the obligation to test their knowledge in this semester.
