Prerequisites:
None
Academic preconditions:
The content of SU516 "Physiology and pharmacology for pharmacists - Module 1: molecules and cells" is assumed known.
Course introductionTo provide the students with:
- Knowledge of the specialized cells in the body under normal physiological conditions and during disease.
- Knowledge of the effect of a pharmacological treatment of specialized cell types under normal physiological conditions and during illness.
- Knowledge of the immune defense mechanisms to fight invading bacteria and pathogens.
- Knowledge of collection of information and critical evaluation of information in the light of the applied methods accuracy, specificity and sources of error.
QualificationsAfter completion of the course, the students will:
- Have knowledge of the physiological, pharmacological, immunological and anatomical terms and concepts to an extent necessary for further studies.
- Be able to explain (or hypothesize about) the specialized cells function of the body on the basis of existing knowledge about it.
- Be able to formulate chains of arguments about complex functional connections with precise account of the physiological, pharmacological, anatomical and immunological terms in regard to their definitions and limitations.
- Have knowledge of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics.
- Be able to describe the principal methods used in physiology, pharmacology, immunology, including methods to be applied in the clinic, and be able to explain the specificity, sources of error and accuracy of the methods.
- Be able to calculate and interpret the information that is based on data obtained with physiological and pharmacological methods.
Expected learning outcomeAfter completion of this course, the students are expected to:
- Have sufficient knowledge of the main molecular and cellular mechanisms for understanding structure and function of the organs (heart, vessels and kidneys).
- Be able to distinguish between the main molecular mechanisms of drugs acting on diseases affecting the heart, vessels, and kidneys.

Prerequisites for participating in the exam
- Participation in Cardiolab
- Presentation of case
Both a and b must be passed in order to participate in the examination. Pass/fail, internal evaluation by teacher.
Assessment and marking:
The examination has two parts:
- A multiple choice-test during the course
- A two-hours multiple choice-test at the end of the course
The final result is an overall assessment of both parts. Danish 7-mark scale, internal marking.
Expected working hours
The teaching method is based on three phase model.
- Introfase til case: 2 timer
- Træningsfase og fremlæggelse af case
- Forelæsninger: 22 timer
- Eksaminatorieholdtimer: 14 timer
- Laboratorieøvelser: 4 timer
Educational activities
