- Educational objectives
- - To frame anesthesia as "perioperative medicine" aimed at protecting the patient from surgical trauma. - Perform BLS correctly, tracheal intubation and electrical defibrillation, know the resuscitation problems posed by drowning, electrocution and asphyxial syndromes, know how to treat anaphylactic shock. - Know the therapeutic strategies to stabilize vital functions and prevent post-anoxic brain damage, learn the semeiotics of coma and the pathophysiology of hypovolemic shock, be able to discriminate nosologically and therapeutically the acute respiratory insufficiency due to obstruction of the pathways airborne, from impaired respiratory mechanics, from alterations in the chemical drive and from hemodynamic causes. - Be able to adequately treat acute and chronic algic syndromes.
- Prerequisites
- In order to understand the contents of the lessons and the learning objectives, the student must have a solid foundation of physiology, pathophysiology and clinical pharmacology, as well as the ability to integrate information from different disciplinary sectors.
- Teaching methods
- Frontal lessons, exercises on dummy, attendance in the Operating Room, in Intensive Care and in the outpatient clinics of Pain Medicine.
- Learning verification modality
- Oral test lasting approximately 15 minutes divided into 1 question on a clinical picture/case and more technique. A further question on the minimum necessary knowledge may be asked in the event of an unsatisfactory answer to the 2 previous questions. TESTING OF CLINICAL SKILLS: interpretation of clinical picture VERIFICATION OF THE SKILLS ACQUIRED DURING THE INTERNSHIP: description of a technology or procedure METHOD FOR ALLOCATION OF THE FINAL MARK: weighted average of the marks obtained in the individual disciplines

METHOD OF CONDUCTING THE EXAM: Oral test divided into 2 questions, 1 of which is chosen by the candidate and one chosen by the commission, with a discussion aimed at ascertaining the level of knowledge, the ability to understand and summarize achieved by the student as well as verify the acquisition of method, language properties and exposition.
The interview is divided into the different thematic areas that characterize the teaching with a duration varying from 15/30 minutes. which varies in relation to the progress of the test itself. Further questions on the minimum necessary knowledge may be asked in the case of unsatisfactory answers to the previous questions.
TESTING OF CLINICAL SKILLS: interpretation of a clinical case presented verbally by the commission
VERIFICATION OF THE SKILLS ACQUIRED DURING THE INTERNSHIP: description of a surgical procedure
