INTERNAL MEDICINE II - ANNOTATION 4th year, winter semester:
In the winter semester, the subject Interna II contains 13 lectures on diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, pankreas, liver and biliary tract, disorders of water, minerals and acid base balance and diseases of the kidneys and urinary tract. Practical teaching takes place mainly in the inpatient wards of the 1st internal clinic and consists of 13 practicals. Internships are focused on the aforementioned topics of internal medicine. Students take medical history and do physical examination of patients with the listed diseases. During practicals, according to the current possibilities of the given department (patients with the given disease are present), students under the guidance of their teachers focus on the typical symptoms (anamnesis + clinical presentation) of the patient's digestive and uropoietic system. In individual patients, they further focus on evaluating the state of water, mineral and acid-base management and identify specific disorders and their possible causes. They try to relate the anamnesis and the current clinical condition of the patient with the findings of laboratory, imaging and functional tests. Linking anamnestic data, physical findings, knowledge of the pathophysiology of the disease and its reflection in graphic and other tests is key to understanding the disease and is also a starting point for proper treatment. A careful examination of a specific patient and a logical chain of steps for purposeful examinations, their interpretation and the correct treatment should help students to fix knowledge about patients in their memory. Conscientious and
careful examination of the patient gives the student invaluable practical experience. The student learns empathy, a sensitive approach. Contact with the patient is the most and we emphasize it; but training in the seminar room is also part of the teaching, further using e-learning and watching instructional videos. As part of the gastroenterology and nephrology subjects, students will visit the gastroenterology and nephrology outpatient clinics, hemodialysis center, where they will see e.g. gastroscopy, colonoscopy, ERCP or kidney function replacement methods, depending on the operational possibilities.

They are guided to look for connections between the history and the current clinical condition of the patient with the findings of laboratory, imaging procedures, and other tests. Linking the anamnesis, physical findings, knowledge of the pathophysiology of the disease and its reflection in graphic and other tests is key to understanding the disease and is also a starting point for proper treatment. A careful examination of a specific patient and a logical chain of steps for purposeful examinations, their interpretation and correct treatment should help students to fix in their memory knowledge about patients, respectively about the diseases being studied. Conscientious and careful examination of the patient gives the student invaluable practical experience. The student learns empathy, a sensitive approach.
