377-0105-00L | Musculoskeletal System ![]() Only for Human Medicine BSc | 5 credits | 5V | J. Goldhahn, O. Distler, C. Maake, M. Steinwachs | |
Abstract | Structure and function of the human musculoskeletal system including its major disorders (acute and chronic). | ||||
Learning objective | - Die Studierenden sind fähig, sich im klinischen Alltag mit korrekter Fachsprache an den Diskussionen im Team zu beteiligen. - Die Studierenden können die Funktion des Bewegungsapparates beim gesunden Menschen physiologisch korrekt beschreiben. - Die Studierenden können aufgrund ihrer Kenntnisse über die Regenerationsfähigkeit der unterschiedlichen Gewebe im Bewegungsapparat zu einem Therapieplan beitragen. - Die Studierenden erkennen Schmerz als Leitsymptom in der Diagnostik und der erfolgreichen Therapie. - Die Studierenden können Behandlungsmethoden für die häufigsten akuten und chronischen Krankheitsbilder zuordnen und vergleichen. | ||||
Content | Die Studierenden lernen an Hand von exemplarischen Krankheitsbildern Aufbau und Funktion des Bewegungsapparates sowie wichtige Störungen. Sie lernen dessen Gewebsarten sowie deren Funktionsweise und Regeneration kennen. Wichtige akute und chronische Krankheitsbilder und deren Therapieprinzipien werden vermittelt. Zusätzlich erfolgt die Vorstellung weiterer Krankheitsbilder in Seminarform. | ||||
377-0503-00L | Life Cycles and System Diseases ![]() Only for Human Medicine BSc | 6 credits | 6V | O. Distler, B. Latal Hajnal, M. Ristow, C. Berger, S. Blumhardt, J. Goldhahn, R. W. Kressig, M. Martin, A. Möller, E. R. Valsangiacomo Büchel, M. Wolff | |
Abstract | This module focuses on special aspects of health and illness in the early and late life phases as well as diseases of whole organ systems. It includes special features of the pediatric, geriatric and rheumatological anamnesis. | ||||
Learning objective | Early Life Cycle: • Knowledge of the pediatric aspects of the medical history. • Knowledge about the enormous variety of child development (inter- and intra-individual variability). • Milestone concept: Assessment of the stage of development of a child in the first years of life. • Landmark concept: first knowledge of the demilitation on normality versus disorder. • Getting to know frequent developmental pediatric disorders. • Knowledge of the most common congenital heart defects. • Getting to know and recognize respiratory diseases of the upper and lower respiratory tract. Late Life Cycle: Upon successful completion of the module, students should be able to • correctly describe the biological bases of the aging process. • derive physical and pharmacological choices to modulate the aging process. • understand the social and psychological implication of aging. • describe the specificities of geriatric medicine in the stationary setting. • identify the age-specific differences in both diagnostics and therapeutics | ||||
Content | Early Life Cycle It describes the peculiarities of the pediatric anamnesis as well as selected topics of the healthy and sick child. The focus is on the newborn, development in the first years of life and adolescence. Infections, congenital heart and the most common respiratory diseases are described throughout the different age stages. Late Life Cycle Fundamentals and relevance of the aging process, as well as its biochemical, physiological and evolutionary basis. Insights into its individual as well as economic impact, including interventional and pharmacological treatment options. Rheumatology Overview Rheumatology, Rheumatoid Arthritis, M.
