Student Assessment
Assessment Language: Greek
Assessment methods:
- Multiple Choice Test
- Short answer questions
- Oral case discussions
The evaluation criteria are explicitly specified for the students. Both the multiple-choice test and the short answer questions are based on the content of the lessons (lectures) to the students. Courses are accessible to students. Oral case discussions and clinical exercises are complementary / auxiliary.
Scope
Learning Outcomes
Course Objectives:
Knowledge, understanding, implementation, synthesis and evaluation of anesthesiology, perioperative and emergency medicine issues.
In the anesthesiology, perioperative and emergency medicine course, the above goals are summarized in 3 categories
1. - Knowledge of anesthesiology, perioperative and emergency medicine
2. - A combination of understanding and clinical / practical application of anesthesiology, perioperative and emergency medicine (skill)
3. - The ability to solve problems, transferring existing knowledge and acquired skills to new situations (ability)
More specifically:
The final level of knowledge allows students to know the basic theories of anesthesia and its components and to understand their application to general anesthesia. Plan the pre-operative-pre-anesthetic preparation and assessment of patients. To be familiar with the basic pharmacology of anesthetic drugs, the basic principles of monitoring the patient's vital functions perioperatively (monitoring) and to be able to apply the basic ventilation techniques. Be aware of the basic principles of regional anesthesia techniques and the medicines used in it. To effectively deal with postoperative pain. Be aware of the principles of dealing with a polytrauma and other life threatening emergencies. At the end of the semester, students are assessed by their participation in the course deliveries in the Anesthesiology Department and the results of oral examinations.
