Course objectives

Human physiology is defined as a science of the functions of healthy organism at the level of cell, tissue, organ and organ systems. Pathophysiology is focused on etiopathogenesis - the mechanisms which lead from the primary cause via individual malfunctions to subsequent development of clinical symptoms of disease. Knowledge of these mechanisms serves to develop a suitable and efficient therapy and prevent resultant damage.
