Knowledge of Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology

Interactive lessons, demonstrations, and exercises in small groups with the aid of multimedia material and simulators. Attendance in wards, operating room and ambulatory. Attendance is 100% compulsory.

The Professionalizing Training Activity of the third year of the course
allows students to acquire the knowledge necessary for an initial approach with the patient.

The Professionalizing Training Activity of the third year of the course enables the student to:
- put into practice communication techniques with the patient during the physical examination and the recording of vital parameters.
- carry out a general medical history.
After the BLSD course, the student will be able to apply resuscitation techniques with the aid of an AED.

The interactions in classroom, the attendance in departments and laboratories will allow the student to interface with the various take-charge of the patient specialists

COMMUNICATION TECHNIQUES - PART I: Control and manage non-verbal communication, gestures and attitudes in interpersonal relationships; Narrative approach in the doctor-patient relationship: welcoming, listening, communication, building the therapeutic alliance, BASIC CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION: Recognize the condition of cardiac arrest in adults and children; perform external cardiac massage and mask ventilation; use a semi-automatic defibrillator; know and apply the international guidelines on basic aid applicable to adults and pediatric subjects. BASIC HYGIENE TECHNIQUES: PPE; Hand washing; asepsis techniques and disposal of sharp and contaminated materials; behavior in the event of an epidemic event; wear sterile gloves correctly
GENERAL, SEGMENTARY, ORGAN/APPARATUS EXAMINATION IN NORMALITY: Head evaluation, evaluation of lymph node stations, anthropometric, borborygmi; basic cardiovascular examination: heart tones and heart sounds, thoracic examination: normal VM and pathological sounds, abdomen examination: palpation of hypochondriac organs. EVIDENCE-BASED MEDICINE (EBM) AND RESEARCH METHODOLOGY: Sources of information in EBM, primary and secondary research; bibliographic research in databases; websites for doctors; main observational and experimental clinical studies; systematic reviews; meta-analysis, critical evaluation of evidence and levels of evidence TECHNICAL LABORATORY METHODOLOGIES: preparation and management of biological samples; assist the preparation of samples; techniques for sampling; witness the performance of a blood count test; assist in the operation of multi-channel autoanalyzers; perform the standard extemporaneous urine test (using a dipstick); prepare a urine sample for sediment examination and identify its components under the microscope; prepare a urine sample for targeted cytological tests; prepare and stain a peripheral blood smear for reading under the microscope; identify the morphological characteristics of erythrocytes, platelets and leukocytes under the microscope; carry out a differential count of the white series cells under the microscope on a colored slide of peripheral blood; describe the essential elements of the direct and indirect immunofluorescence technique and list its biomedical uses; describe the essential elements of the lymphocyte typing technique and indicate its uses in biomedicine; define quality control and the principles on which it is based. Indicate strategies to improve the analytical sources of variability in results; describe the overall organization of a clinical pathology and clinical biochemistry laboratory; assist in the performance of blood gas analyzer tests. BASIC CARDIOLOGICAL AND PNEUMOLOGICAL DIAGNOSTICS: Perform an electrocardiographic examination; examine pathological ECG; witness the reporting of a Holter test; attend an echocardiography without and with stimulation; perform simple instrumental vascular examinations (Doppler); assist in complex vascular exams in vasculopathic patients; attend an exercise test, assist in the performance of a spirometry, interpretation of blood gas analysis DETECTION OF VITAL PARAMETERS: Definition of vital parameters; respiratory rate; pulse oximetry detection; heart rate; blood pressure; detection of capillary filling indices; body temperature. GENERIC MEDICAL HISTORY:- physiological information relating to the various phases of somatic and psychic development, life and eating habits, work activity, etc.; - remote pathology concerning conditions suffered in the past; - family members and illnesses; - proximate pathology PRACTICAL LABORATORY - III YEAR: capillary sampling,venous sampling, arterial sampling, samples for culture tests

There will be an ongoing evaluation expressed by the tutors assigned to each group through a suitability assessment which will be noted in the personal booklet of the student, by affixing the date, location, signature and stamp of the structure where the activity is carried out. Once the suitability assessment for each skill has been obtained, the student will be able to take the exam as part of the scheduled sessions. The exam will consist of a practical test, aimed at verifying the application of the knowledge acquired during the skill attendance. For students with disabilities/invalidities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who requested support to take the specific exam at the SLD Info Point of the University. The exam methods will be adapted in light of the provisions of the University guidelines (https://www.univpm.it/Entra/Accoglienza_diversamente_abili)

The following parameters will be considered for the learning assessment: extension of the knowledge acquired, understanding and variables of application of the knowledge, capacity for analysis and argumentative synthesis, relational, evaluation and decision-making skills in simulated clinical situations, soundness of the arguments and logical process.

Ongoing assessment: suitability assessment for each skill, linked both to the completion of the mandatory 100% attendance and to the achievement of the set objectives.
Final evaluation: the final mark is awarded out of thirty. The exam is considered passed when the grade is greater than or equal to 18.

The final grade is given by the arithmetic average of the evaluations reported by the student in the skills being examined. Honor is granted when knowledge and exposure have been excellent.
