Thematik

The main goal of the curriculum is to introduce the students on a preclinical level to the basic dysfunctions of individual organs and organ systems, to make them acquainted with the inherited and acquired etiological factors, with the pathogenesis and pathomechanism of diseases, and with the possible compensatory or adaptive mechanisms and system interactions.

The topics covered (among others) include pathophysiologic aspects of circulation, respiration, energy homeostasis, thermoregulation, renal-, endocrine-, gastrointestinal functions, acid-base and salt-water balance with special focus on pathomechanisms fundamentally linked to target sites of the most prescribed drugs as well as on iatrogenic risks in connection with the main- and side-effects of drugs.

Since the mean age of the patients is growing higher in most parts of the world, the gerontological aspects of functional changes are embedded into the curriculum throughout the course. The course is important to understand the clinical symptoms, as well as the possible pharmacological or other interventions and steps of prevention.
