Learning outcomes
|
Physiology aims to describe the functioning of the healthy human organism at the cellular, tissue and organ levels. It links the biochemical, physical and biological principles of individual processes and discusses their regulation, coordination and integration. Pathophysiology is concerned with the causes (aetiology) and mechanisms of disease development (pathogenesis) and describes changes in the function of the organism and organs during the disease process. Its understanding is essential for the correct choice of diagnostic procedures, treatment (elimination of the cause or intervention in the pathogenesis), prevention and the development of new drugs and therapeutic procedures.
Acquiring knowledge about the functioning of the healthy human organism at the cellular, tissue and organ level, as well as knowledge about the causes and mechanisms of disease development, which is important for the correct choice of diagnostic procedures, treatment, prevention and development of new drugs and therapeutic procedures.
