Topic

The subject of "Obstetrics" conveys knowledge toward the students about anatomical and physiological background of conception, as well as physiological changes during pregnancy. It provides fundamental information about different examinations during prenatal care and modern prenatal diagnostic measures. Students will gather information about physiological and pathological labour along with operative vaginal delivery. Moreover, physiological changes and complications during the short and long term postpartum period will be detailed. Neonatal care will also be discussed. The main goal is to provide future doctors with essential knowledge about obstetrics.
