Otolaryngology 1655-Lek4OTOLA-J

The seminars are intended to present issues related to the most common diseases of the upper espiratory tract, mouth, throat, ears and neck, including pathophysiology, which will allow for proper understanding of disease processes. Also, the discussed problems related to developmental defects of the upper respiratory tract and ears will allow for a proper understanding of the problem, which will facilitate appropriate management of such cases in the future. A particularly important problem discussed during the seminars is the diagnosis and treatment of cancers in the larynx, nose and paranasal sinuses, nasopharynx, middle and lower throat, oral cavity and salivary glands. A separate issue are aspects related to acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. During the classes, the problems of infections of the nose and sinuses, ears, mouth, throat and larynx, as well as salivary glands in adults and children, as well as appropriate diagnostic and treatment algorithms, will be broadly presented. With regard to chronic inflammatory diseases affecting the nose and paranasal sinuses, larynx, oral cavity and pharynx, the basic principles of diagnosis and qualification for surgical treatment will be discussed. Various surgical techniques will be presented, from functional surgery that preserves the function of the organs to radical procedures that deprive the patient of the basic functions of the diseased organs. Much attention will be devoted to issues related to inflammatory complications of sinusitis, highlighting the appropriate approach to the diagnosis of these conditions and appropriate treatment. The seminars also aim to familiarize students with the problems of emergencies such as bleeding, shortness of breath, and foreign bodies. Craniofacial injuries and appropriate treatment of the patient.
Exercises conducted during classes are devoted to:
- mastering the ability to collect patient and family history in diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses, oral cavity and pharynx, larynx, esophagus, trachea and bronchi,
- mastering the technique of examining the nose and paranasal sinuses, oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, trachea and bronchi,
- mastering the ability to independently perform basic procedures involving ORL organs.
- getting acquainted with modern methods of endoscopic and microsurgical examinations,
- learning about the care of a patient with a tracheostomy and the replacement of the tracheostomy tube
- becoming familiar with the most frequently performed procedures and basic surgical methods, with particular emphasis on endoscopic and microsurgical methods, including the use of laser radiation.
- learning about rehabilitation methods for patients after complete removal of the larynx.
