Paediatrics Part 1 (Basics of Paediatrics I)

1.Demonstrate knowledge of the most common acute and chronic diseases in children contained in the modules of the study course “Paediatrics”

2.Demonstrate knowledge of children’s rights and respect children’s rights in any interaction with children in the study environment

3.Carry out organised, problem-oriented and complete collection of a history (including information on child development and preventive care) and physical examination of the patient according to the child’s age and illness

4.Demonstrate diagnostic and therapeutic procedures (if possible and necessary)

5.Accurately and succinctly formulate and provide short, accurate, orderly and complete oral reports on the patient to other colleagues in writing

6.Communicate with patients and their families using verbal and non-verbal communication skills to facilitate joint decision-making and effective information exchange

7.The acquired knowledge will allow students to characterize the characteristics of healthy children, newborns and neonatal periods, cardiovascular, digestive, respiratory, renal and urethra systems, endocrine, musculo-skeletal, hemorrhage, laboratory parameters during different age periods, and to name and characterize facts about the effects of the most common disease risk factors, aspects of primary prevention, morphology, ethyology, pathology, diagnosis and treatment, including clinical pharmacology, rehabilitation, psychotherapy, intensive care, and secondary prevention in pediatrics.

1.Propose an appropriate action plan and diagnostic examinations according to the clinical situation and patient values

2.Interpret the results of diagnostic examinations based on patient information, clinical presentation and evidence-based medical literature

3.- investigate patient complaints and history - perform a physical examination of the patient by palpation, percussion and auscultation; - perform peripheral pulse, heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure indicators, attribute them to a specific clinical situation, and link them to the overall examination process. - perform laboratory, diagnostic examination resultātu analysis; apply the knowledge of reasoning, logic and rhetoric bases to analyse practical situations, discuss, explain their views and contribute constructively to the achievement of professional objectives and the fulfilment of specific tasks; - be able to communicate with patients, their relatives, colleagues, other healthcare stakeholders; - plan for the independent development of their communication skills, respecting the different levels of knowledge, experience, traditions, culture and other personal characteristics of others.
