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
Course is complementary to aVLBC0422p. The aim of the course it to bring experience with solving practical problems in clinical biochemistry, to acquire practical laboratory skills and to learn students to use results of biochemical analysis for diagnostics.
Learning outcomes
The student is able:
- to explain the ways of obtaining biological material for biochemical analysis and is familiar with the rules of manipulation.
- to describe physiological values of the most important biochemical parameters.
- to interpret the results of biochemical analyzes, discusses the significance of the findings.
- to understand the principles of the most important biochemical-analytical methodologies.
- to be oriented in basic laboratory manipulations.
