Oncology
(objectives)
ONCOLOGY Students will need to know the predisposing conditions and the clinical characteristics of the various neoplastic diseases that define diagnostic procedures. The knowledge of prognostic and predictive factors linked to the characteristics related to the neoplasm and to the patient, will help to understand the strategy for the management of different tumors, taking into account the therapeutic options available in the various phases of the disease and their side effects in a risk/benefit assessment perspective in order to achieve useful skills for collaboration with multidisciplinary teams. These objectives will be achieved through lectures aimed at improving the ability to address and resolve the main issues of Oncology. GENERAL SURGERY Aim of the course of General Surgery is to provide students with knowledge of surgical diseases. In addition, general knowledge on diagnostic approaches is required. Moreover general information concerning surgical approaches will be explained. These objectives will be achieved through frontal lectures and interactive teaching activities, designed to facilitate learning and improve the ability to address and solve the main questions of a surgical patient. Student will be asked to recognise main signs and symptoms, diagnostic flow chart, risk and complication of a surgical patient; to describe surgery principles and techniques. ANESTHESIOLOGY General and peripheral anesthesia. The basic Monitoring in Intensive Care Unit. Organ failure. Physiopathology and treatment.Mechanical ventilation.Extracorporeal removal techniques. The patient in shock.Stupor and coma
