About Study Course
Objective
To ensure acquisition and improvement of theoretical knowledge and practical skills in accordance with the general concept on paediatric kidney diseases pursuant to the Regulations of Pediatric Speciality, allowing the practitioner to demonstrate competence when reading literature or coming across in clinical practice, in order to refer a patient to a specialist when necessary, and to provide emergency aid in acute situations.
Learning outcomes
1.During acquisition of the study course a resident acquires basic knowledge on the most common paediatric kidney diseases, their aetiology, pathogenesis, clinical expressions, diagnostic testing algorithms and treatment principles.
1.Following acquisition of the study course the resident will be able to carry out examination and evaluation of the objective clinical condition of kidney diseases based upon the age of the child, to gather anamnesis of his/her life and illnesses, to draw up examination and treatment plan, to evaluate indications and results of the following methods of diagnostics: uroflowmetry, cystometry, ultrasound, miction cystourethrography, excretory i/v urography, cystoscopy, as well as to provide emergency aid when necessary.
1.Upon successful completion of the study course the resident acquire mandatory competence of a certified paediatrician. The necessary level of competence varies for various cases of paediatric kidney diseases and is provided in the table below.
The competence levels are as follows:
1st level: acquired knowledge complies with general concept of the subject matter, allowing the practitioner to understand the situation by reading literature or when coming across in practice, by engaging in purposeful search for necessary additional information and referring the patient to a specialist, when necessary.
