Course objectives
At the of the course students should be able: understand and explein the principles and method of devices used in general medicine; to recognize possible risks connected with the use of some medical devices (of mechanical, electromagnetic or optical character, ionizing radiation); to accept rules and methods of safe use of this devices - both in patients and in the healthcare professionals.
Learning outcomes
After finishing the course the students will - understand basic principles of the devices used in medidine, be able of safe and efficient attitude to their use.
