Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of the learning process (3 modules from end of year 2 to end of year 3 of the Bachelor), Students will have acquired needed basis for patient-clinical approach including knowledge of the main principles of medical anamnesis, clinical examination, diagnostic hypotheses elaboration and differential diagnostic.
The cursus will focus on the manifestations of diseases and on the physiological systems in a patient global-approach philosophy. 

Content of UE

Objectives of the course include study of clinical signs and symptoms needed to understand pathophysiology and to elaborate diagnostics which is the key-step in order to initiate therapeutics.
Listen to and examine a patient is the very essence of the patient-physician relationship.
