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 pulse rate in man at the rest and after the work load, to evaluate the results and explaine it; measure the blood pressure and explaine the results; design the daily diet according to the principles of good nutrition; evaluate the nutritional state.
Syllabus
  • Evaluation of nutritional state. Evaluation of sensitivity of respiratory centre to hypercapnia. Recruitment and summation in skeletal muscle. Blood pressure in man. Non-invasive methods of blood pressure measurement. Measurement of basic metabolic rate (BMR). Energy output in change of body position. Repay of oxygen debt. Calculation of energy expenditure. Examination of pulse by palpation. Ergometry. ECG. Blood flow in forearm (Pletysmography). Digital model of aortic function (a simulation program). Blood flow in veins. Apex beat, heart sounds. Systolic time intervals. Measurement of pulse wave velocity. Sphygmography.

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.
