Topic

One of the main fields of modern orthopedics today is replacement of major joints. Aim of this course is to present basic practical knowledge of this field and to give detailed and high level information to the students. The course is mainly practice oriented. Besides this theoretical principles are discussed as well. History of joint arthroplasty, surgical techniques, indicational criteria, rehabilitation and basic biomechanical principles are presented in lectures. Main factors of practical education are participation in outpatient work, participation in surgical activities (hip and knee prostheses) and observation of rehabilitation of operated patients. Main goal of the education is that students should improve their practical knowledge on the field of patient care.
