This course aims to promote the development of competences for the selection and management of ramdom clinical trials, groups, cases and controls; the specific methodologic characteristics for the development of each one, and their potential in the generation of knowledge (scientific evidences). The investigation procotol is reviewed to start research development.
The aim of this course is for students to learn and understand the functions of a Clinical Engineering Program in a hospital.
This course will introduce students to new fields and develpments in the different areas of Biomedical Engineering.
This course provides students with a descríption of the theoretical foundations of the image generating devices used in medicine, including microscopy, x rays, computerized axial tomography and magnetic resonance; analysis and design of the equipment that produces these images as well as the study of the properties of generated images.
Students are introduced to concepts of medical instrumentation identification, analysis, and design. They also review the different elements that make up diagnostic, monitoring, and therapeutic equipment.
This course aims to explore cutting-edge technologies for the automation of processes in health care institutions by analyzing their feasibility, advantages and disadvantages and considering their efficiency, effectiveness and impact on the doctor-patient relationship.
At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to take an active, effective role in the care of the growth and development of children and adolescents. They will behave ethically and professionally to protect the health of patients in these age groups and refer them promptly to a specialist in case of abnormal situations beyond their professional competence. Course aims will be achieved through bibliographic research, discussions with problematized clinical cases, group sharing experiences, collaborative work, outpatient consultation practices and duty shifts.
At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to organize and reflect on their knowledge of the Basic Sciences to link it with the study of the Clinical Sciences included in their medical degree program in order to attain a competent performance in solving clinical cases of the most common first-contact care diseases and to pass national and international graduate medical specialty tests. Course aims will be achieved through readings, discussions, research, and a clinical reasoning approach to the management of clinical cases.
At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to solve clinical problems involving the Clinical Sciences included in their medical degree program in order to attain a competent performance in patient care and to pass national and international graduate medical specialty tests. Course aims will be achieved through readings, discussions, research, and a clinical reasoning approach to the management of clinical cases.
At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to explain the origin and meaning of the signs and symptoms that make up the most common syndromes and diseases in order to develop a more structured and systematic symptomatology and examination that allow them to integrate more efficient etiologic, nosologic, and functional diagnoses. All of this will be achieved through the attendance of lectures, participation in seminars on problematized clinical cases, additional research and practices in the Simulation and Virtual Medical Education laboratory.
