Aims |
Provide the student, at the end of the 1st cycle (BAC13), the abilities to interpret clinical chemistry laboratory tests (diagnostic, follow up, prevention,
).
Together with other lectures in the field of human pathologies (microbiology, pathology,
) this lecture should meet the recommendation from CEE regarding pharmaceutical missions: reinforce the role of the pharmacist as health councillor.
|
Content |
Major biological systems are reviewed together with a short pathophysiological reminder. The lecture starts with the major preanalytical requirements and analytical performances (sensitivity specificity, reproducibility,
). Serum protein and inflammatory responses, renal function, pancreatic function (endocrine and exocrine), liver function (cholestasis, cytolysis,
), anemia, lipids and cardiovascular markers, thyroid function are reviewed in different chapters.
