Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for this course. This course is open to all students without any prior conditions.
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
At the end of the course students should be able (at the level necessary for orthoptics):
understand and explain biophysical principles and laws; operate basic biophysical devices;
evaluate obtained data by the basic biophysical methods in light of a scientific, effective, safe and efficient attitude to their use;
understand principles of the more complex therapeutical and diagnostical medical devices;
discriminate possible usage of the biopfysical techniques and medical devices in practice;
At the end of this course the student will also have to demonstrate during steered discussions insight and basic skills and habbits in data handling and processing of health related data, information and concepts as defined in the following paragraphs. This course (in the part dedicated to healthcare informatics) is focused on discusing possibilities, limitations and risks of information and communication technologies in the healthcare environment. It is not predominantly targeted at teaching computer skills. In the seminars devoted to "Health Informatics" focus is on obtaining insight and basic skills and habbits in data handling and processing. Ths student will have to demonstrate the ability of making reasoned decisions in the following areas: 1. Searching, retrieval, storage, use of data, information and knowledge in medical decision making in diagnostics, treatment. 2. Improvement of skills in critical thinking especially in the area of Evidence Based Medicine. 3. Understanding the logics of the health and health care environment, communication with professionals and lay community. 4. Gaining innitial insight in the core areas of health care informatics competences (possibilities, limitations and risks) in use of information and communication technologies in a medical environment. This is not a course in computer literacy (working with concrete software programs).
Learning outcomes
After finishing the course students will (at the level necessary for orthoptics):
understand and explain biophysical principles and laws;
operate basic biophysical measuring devices;
evaluate obtained data by the basic biophysical methods in light of a scientific, effective, safe and efficient attitude to their use;
understand principles of the more complex therapeutical and diagnostical medical devices;
discriminate possible usage of the biopfysical techniques and medical devices in practice;
The student will be able to independently and actively seek and use tools, procedures and processes facilitating the correct use of information society environment for more effective study of medicine and more efficient provision of medical services in individual medical specialties; The student will understand the possibilities and risks of digitization and use of digital information and communication tools in the process of providing medical services; The student will get a general overview of the benefits of the information society in the medical domain and will acquire basic basic behavioral habits;
