The subject is a set of topical units. Students will get basic knowledge in the fields of microbiology and immunology, which is an important background for studying epidemiology, hygiene and health education, all parts of public health care, and also health care and prevention of nosocomial infection. The study is focused on the basics of medical microbiology: general and special; bacteriology, virology, and parasitology, mycology and basics immunology: immune system, immunity, microbiologic and immunologic laboratory methods, clinical immunology.
Subject Knowledge: Student knows basic professional terminology in the field of microbiology and immunology, he is able to recognize and classify initiators of infections, he knows the effects of antimicrobial substances and the origin of resistance, he knows the function and the parts of the immune system, the basics and forms of immunization, he recognizes clinical symptoms of immune system changes. Professional Skills: Student is able to read and interpret professional literature in the field of microbiology and immunology applied on health care, he is able to sample biologic material for microbiologic and serological examination and transport them to special laboratories, he is able to explain a patient the correct form of using antimicrobial medication with a professional reasoning.
