Course objectives
To acquaint and to teach student (on the level of the studied field) basic examination technique for estimation of parameters to describe healthy human organism.
Learning outcomes
At the end of this course the students should be able to: perform basic physiological examinations - e.g.estimation of basic reflexes in man, evaluate the results and explaine it; measure and evaluate the spirometric examination; measure and evaluate the estimation of visual acuity; describe the methods for measurement of erytrocytes sedimentation rate.

Teaching methods
The course is organized in the form of laboratory practices where students examine each other by given method, and they prepare the report from measured data.
Assessment methods
Practical training. Credit will be awarded for 12 protocols signed by the supervisor and which sum the results of each practical session. Students unable to participate for medical reasons are allowed to attend a substitute session. Other condition for given credit is successfully passed credit test(60% and more). During the semester, knowledge can be verified directly in a written or oral form.
