Learning outcomes |
To provide students a deep knowledge of the nervous, locomotor, cardio-circulatory and respiratory systems, through an integrated approach to anatomy, physiology, histology and biochemistry of these systems and to develop competences and skills. To develop the ability to work in groups. To develop the ability to synthesis. To develop the ability of critique thinking. To develop oral communication skills. For each system, students should: (1) Describe the anatomy of organs and topographical relationships; (2) Explain the formation of these tissues at the embryo level; (3) Recognize the contribution of different cell types and tissues which constitute these organs to their proper functioning; (4) Explain the operation of each of the organs and their contribution to the functioning of the system as a whole; (5) Characterize the relevant physiological processes

Syllabus |
Nervous system: external and internal anatomy of the central and peripheral nervous system; physiology of sensory, motor, autonomic and higher nervous functions act. Locomotor system: skeletal system (bones and bone tissue, gross anatomy); joints and movement; muscular system (histology, physiology and general anatomy and muscles of the head, trunk, upper and lower limb member). Cardiocirculatory system: function and anatomy heart; histology and electrical heart; classroom practice: anatomical models; fresh heart, ecg, contact with the electrocardiograph; analysis of the electrodes, performing an ecg, adjusting the heart, measurement of blood pressure and pulse. Respiratory system: respiratory function and anatomy, histology and regulation of the respiratory system.
