Course objectives
This newly introduced subject focuses on overview exercising of substantial problems from the point of view of anatomist, embryologist, physiologist, pathological physiologist, pathologist, microbiologist, immunologist and finally, corresponding clinician. Using this approach we will conceptually approach closer to strategy of USMLE, Step 1.
Learning outcomes
Student will be able to:
- to link the pathophysiology of the individual subtypes of diabetes mellitus to the clinical presentation of the disease, including the occurrence of possible complications and subsequent treatment of diabetes.
- to propose diagnostic and therapeutic options for the treatment of diabetes mellitus.
- Apply pathophysiological principles in clinical manifestations of atherosclerosis.
- to propose diagnostic and therapeutic options for ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular accident and ischemic disease of the lower limbs.
- to apply pathophysiological principles of autoimmune, hypersensitive and autoimmune diseases in clinical practice.
- to frame the basic diagnostic and therapeutic options for the above mentioned diseases.
- to understand the pathophysiological nature of septic condition and to focus on the clinical manifestation of sepsis with regard to the basic possibilities of diagnosis and treatment.

Teaching methods
Education will be performed by interactive seminars, practicals and lectures. Practical training (about 100 % of the total volume of teaching) is complemented by a comprehensive range of simulation teaching methods on simulators with varying degrees of fidelity, trainers and virtual patients. Simulation results in subsequent debriefing (feedback to the student). There is also problem-oriented learning in the foreground, where the student is taught by solving the problem presented, as well as team-oriented teaching when small groups of students discuss and choose a solution of the problem. Emphasis is also placed on the development of soft skills, incl. so-called "21st century skills", particularly communication, decision-making skills, critical thinking, crisis communication and teamwork.
Assessment methods
Written test at the end of each semester.
