Prerequisites
( VLLM0421c Med.Microbiol. || aVLLM0421c Med.Microbiol. I - prac. ) && ( aVLBC0422c Biochemistry II - pr. || VSBC041c Biochemistry II -pract. ) && ( aVLBC0422s Biochemistry II - sem || VSBC041s Biochemistry II -s )
The knowledge of topics from aVLLM0421c is necessary for subject absolution. This knowledge of this pre-requisity subject is considered obvious and topics of first semester will not be explained repeatedly.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
At the end of the course student
* defines microbial findings in different localisations
* defines the difference between common microbial flora, temporary findings, contaminants and pathogens in various localisations
* records infections that are rare and the rather common ones
* defines basics of diagnostic and therapeutic approach in the most typical microbial disease; here, basis is only supposed, more enlargement is supposed in other subjects, namely Infectology
Learning outcomes
Student defines normal flora (if it does exist)/transitory findings/contaminants/pathogens in
* individual parts of upper and lower respiratory ways, lungs and middle ear
* different parts of gastroitestinal tract, livers, bile bladder and pancreas
* individual parts of uropoetic system
* individual parts of reproductive system
* individual parts of central and peripherial neural system
* bloodstream, bones, muscles and different tissuess
* skin, eyes, extarnal ear

Student also describes specific problems of microbial infections
* during pregnancy and delivery and during first days after delivery
* in hospitalized, especially immunocompromised persons (healthcare associated infections)
Student also composes the basic facts in in
* problematics of biofilm detection (including testing of effectivity of antibiotics to biofilm)
* basic processi of clinical microbiology (indication, sampling, material transport, specimen processing, result releasing, result interpretation)

Those interested in deeper knowledge in antibiotic problematic and clinical microbiology may later register to the subject VSAT081 (Basics of antimicrobial therapy)

Assessment methods
Conditions for credits:
(1) absolving all practicals, with following notes:
- it is possible to substitute withing the week of tuition, if the capacity of the room allows it; no special formalities are required for it
- one absence is allowed according to Study Rules, but even in this case appology is recommended, and completing the konwledgen and the protocol required
- one more absence, if justified or approved by teacher, is possible under the same conditions
- more absences than two (although justified!) usually require some form of substitution (e. g. essay making or so)
usually there are no substitutions organized at the end of semester
- absences that are neiter officially justified nor consulted with the teacheer in advance are not allowed
(2) complete laboratory protocol (usually signed by the teacher; teacher would not sign a protocol that is not satisfactory; if so, student has to redo it)
(3) succesfully filled in ROPOT questions to all topics (full number of points)
(4) succesfully written final test, date of the credit test will be declared in time. Number of questions is 12, "single best answer" type, 8/12 correct answers required, 7/12 is sufficient for student having all ROPOTs filled in in time (in time = before the corresponing lesson; this is checked several times during the semester)
