In this subject, students acquire the skills that will enable them to understand, explore and address the various factors involved in health and disease within the medical-surgical and maternal area. Different diseases studied systems, the fundamentals of maternal-child area, and obstetrician gynecology pediatric pathology, and the real problems and / or potential derivatives thereof and assistance by the nurse.

Pre-course requirements

  • Provided to develop the course and achieve the goals is that students have sufficient knowledge of anatomy and physiology, being an essential requirement to overcome these subjects in the degree, or equivalent.

5. Known somatic and psychological characteristics of the child, throughout their different ages.
6. To value and care for the child in health and disease status.

SPECIFIC:

1. Knowing the different mechanisms of generation of pathological processes
2. Know the most common diseases of the various devices and health systems (cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive and neurological) under the following methodology: definition, pathogenesis, pathophysiology and signs.
3. Acquire knowledge of the pathophysiology and clinical scientific basis for nursing work.
4. Acquire adequate knowledge of the therapeutic orientations.
5. Knowing the general principles of prophylaxis
6. Prognosis and potential complications of common diseases.
7. Assuming the specific assessment of signs, symptoms and problems, using the clinical trial setting priorities.
8. Gain an understanding of the anatomo-physiology of the female reproductive tract.

Teaching and learning activities

In person

  • The methodology used will be 20% for theory of introductory topics by the teacher (lectures with audiovisual) preparedness and cooperative learning, 30% for tutoring students or working in the student in the UIC of their cooperative learning then must explain to the rest of their peers and exposure to 50% of students in cooperative learning done.
  • Cooperative work is done on the issues that prompted the teacher so that students will have to prepare them independently in groups under the guidance of the teacher. In class students will present their collaborative work by presenting a topic that will be subject to examination in the same way that the introduction of topics given by the teacher. After exposure of the student, the teacher matisarà appropriate knowledge. The working groups will be cooperative about 6 students in this way on an average of 80 students per class and there will be 13-14 year groups.
  • The existence of groups means that teachers will distribute the course topics that are preparing students and which they consider are the input and that should teach themselves. Thus teachers indicate clearly the subject matters to be developed by students and the exposure time of each so that each group will present during the 2h or issues that you touched.
