Paediatrics
1655-Lek4PEDI-J
Practical seminars are designed to acquire and consolidate knowledge of the most common diseases of the digestive system and allergic diseases, taking into account the specificity of developmental age.
Topics include functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, differentiating the causes of acute and chronic abdominal pain, and management of diarrhea in children. The scope of the seminars also includes information on inflammatory bowel disease, malabsorption syndromes and selected liver and pancreas diseases.
The allergy part discusses food and air allergies in children. Particular attention is paid to the early identification of patients requiring dietary treatment.
The seminars also include presentations of the entire diagnostic and therapeutic process based on case analyses. Additionally, the seminars include issues related to life-threatening conditions in gastroenterology and allergology of developmental age: gastrointestinal bleeding and anaphylaxis.
The exercises are devoted to acquiring practical skills in the field of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in the described topics. During the tests, the student plans diagnostic tests, interprets the results and proposes therapeutic procedures. Additionally, the student presents the entire diagnostic process of the indicated patient.
