Pulmonology with Elements of Pulmonary Oncology
1655-Lek4PULM-J
The lecture student gets acquainted with the basics of diagnosis and differentiation of symptoms of respiratory disease. Also analyzes the various symptoms in relation to specific diseases. The final stage of the course is the combination of diagnostic symptoms of diseases and the combination of imaging diagnostics for diseases of the respiratory system.
On lectures student wiil be acquaint with the newest knowledge about the symptomatology of the diseases of the respiratory system, diagnostic of the lung diseases, bacteriological diagnostics in pneumonology with the special regard of special and non-specific bacteriology..There are also classes about the physiopathology of breathing and the symptomatology of the respiratory failure with the elements of the principles of the oxygen therapy and the lung cancer ( epidemiology and the risk factor, histopathology, the symptoms of the disease and therapy)
On tutorials students will acquaint with detecting, aetiology, pathogenesis, the diagnosis of pleural liquids- we lay emphasis on the mesothelioma. We discuss with details about the tuberculosis (epidemiology, microbiology, the clinical classification of tuberculosis,
antituberculosis regimen of drugs, the basic principles of the treatment of tuberculosis) and different mycobacteriosis. We lay emphasis on hospital, post- hospital pneumonia and aspiration pneumonia. It's important particularly in the aspect of the generality of occurrence of this illness. On classes students acquire a knowledge about mediacal examination and interpretation of bacteriological, radiographic and laboratory investigation. We lay emphasis on medical inestigation and how students take the history of patient particurarly in such diseases as COPD, asthma bronchiale, bronchiectasis ond diseases of bronchioles. Students learn about obturative sleep apnoea and interstitial diseases. for example idiopathic pulmonary fibroses, sarcoidosis.
On classes we say about manifastation of diseases of connective tissue in pulmonary system and also about life- threating states states in the clinic of the lung diseases. medical inestigation and how students take the history of patient particurarly in such diseases as COPD, asthma bronchiale, bronchiectasis ond diseases of bronchioles. Students learn about obturative sleep apnoea and interstitial diseases. for example idiopathic pulmonary fibroses, sarcoidosis.
