Course content
|
The course of normal medical physiology is designed to students should acquire the fundamental theoretical and practical knowledge of the function the cells, tissues, body organs, and organism as a whole. An integral part of education of the physiology is understanding the complicated relationships between the organism and environment. Physiology is presented to the students through lectures and practical training. Teaching is concentrated into thematic units provideng the information respecting current status of the knowledge of normal functions of all functional systems of the human body (as circulating body fluids system, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, excretory, endocrine, reproductive systems, and the systems of excitable tissue-nerve and muscle), so that the students obtain the coherent sum of knowledge on the functions of the healthy human organism. Special attention is paid to integrative and control role of the central nervous system, endocrine, and immunity system. The goal of the practical training is make the students acquainted with basic examination methods in haematology, to gain basal skills, necessary for investigation of the cardiovascular (the record and analysis of the ECG curve), respiratory apparatus, kidney, CNS (the record and analysis of the EEG curve), sense organs, and finally the students are acquired with the issues of the good, rational diet. This deep and exact knowledge of the medical physiology are necessary for following study other fields of the general medicine.

Learning outcomes
|
The broad goal of the teaching of undergraduate students in physiology aims at providing the student comprehensive knowledge of the normal functions of the organ systems of the body to facilitate an understanding of the physiological basis of health and diseases.
Human physiology is the science of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of humans is good health, their organs, and the cells of which they are composed. The principal level of focus of physiology is at the level of organs and systems.

Assessment methods and criteria
|
Mark, Oral exam
To get a credit, the students must take part in all seminars, all practical training, pass all the tests successfully, be interested in practical topics, use practical methods and put down notes. At the end of 4th semester the students must also pass final assessment (interview). Students are allowed to sit for examination only if they have received credits in winter and summer semesters. The examination includes the computer test and the classic oral exam.
