Learning outcomes
This theoretical and practical course represents one of the basic compulsory study subjects. It introduces students to the terminology of anatomical structures and organ systems of the human body. Students acquire the knowledge of physiology; mainly related to midwifery.
The student can prove (orally and in written form) his or her knowledge of: o general and special anatomy including the basics of topographic anatomy o physiological processes in the human body, their interconnectedness and regulation mechanisms o function of cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems of the human body o the basic functional units and their interconnectedness.
Prerequisites
