About Study Course

Objective

To introduce medical genetics residents with the most common problems in children's surgery. Teach genetics specialist navigate surgical problems in children age, their association with congenital syndromes.

Learning Outcomes

Knowledge

1.During the study course, medical genetics resident acquires basic knowledge of pediatric surgery.

Skills

1.As a result of this study course, medical genetics resident will be able to assess the overall condition of a newborn or a child, physical indicators and psychomotor development; able to assess the results of laboratory and radiologic exam results, reason on illness prognosis, treatment and tactics of further care.

Competences

1.Resident’s knowledge corresponds the overall understanding of development and examination of a newborn or a child. The resident is able to create an examination plan appropriate for setting the diagnosis, to prescribe examinations. Knowledge of the given issue is sufficient to understand its essence, to diagnose and provide with emergency assistance, when necessary, to realize diagnostics, treatment, and preventive measures under the guidance of a specialist.
