Annotation -
Otorhinolaryngology includes knowledge of physiology and pathophysiology and differential diagnosis of diseases in adults and children. It mainly concerns diseases of the following areas: ears, throat, nose, paranasal sinuses, nasopharynx, neck, larynx - their treatment - surgical and non-surgical. Special attention is paid to the problem of choking and its causes from the perspective of an otorinolaryngologist. Emphasis is placed on teaching in practical exercises, practice in inpatient clinic, in outpatient clinic and surgery theater. Form of teaching: - seminars - focused on systematic classification of the ENT branch in relation to other medical fields - microbiology, neuroscience, neurosurgery, surgery, endocrinology, internal medicine, infectious medicine, ophthalmology, maxillofacial surgery. - practical exercises - focused on practical skills - examination methods in outpatient clinic - examination of ear, nose, nasopharynx, oral cavity, throat, neck and larynx. - simulation education - management of the patient with airway obstruction, tracheostomy, tracheopunction. - acquired skill - replacement of tracheostomy tube

Aim of the course -

Main aim of the subject is to acquire adequate knowledge of otorhinolaryngology and head and neck surgery. The crucial issues represent diagnosis and therapy of the most important diseases of the ear, nose and paranasal cavities, pharynx, larynx, neck and adjacent structures. Among the aims of the subject is also understanding the position of the discipline and its role with other specialities in the differential diagnostics and complex care for the patients.
