Course objectives
The aim of this course is to provide the student with an introduction to clinical neurology. It provides basic information on the most important clinical units in neurology, including pathophysiology, clinical features, course, diagnosis and treatment. Based on these data, the students should be able to correctly interpret the history and clinical neurological examination in patients with the most common neurological diseases, to make syndromological, topical and differential diagnoses, to suggest relevant paraclinical investigations and basic therapeutic approaches for these clinical entities.
Learning outcomes
By the end of the course, students should be able to:
- Understand and explain the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, clinical course, diagnosis and treatment of the most common neurologic disorders;
- On the basis of the history and clinical neurological examination, make a correct semiological, syndromological and topical diagnosis;
- Perform relevant differential diagnosis in patients with the most common neurological disorders;
- Indicate appropriate paraclinical investigations and interpret their basic findings;
- Make reasoned decisions about possible aetiological diagnoses;
- Suggest relevant treatment options for the most common neurological disorders.
