The prerequisite(s) for this Teaching Unit (Unité d’enseignement – UE)
for the programmes/courses that offer this Teaching Unit are specified at the end of this sheet.
|
| Main themes |
Introduction to biological matrices, preanalytical requirements, stability, analytical performances
Serum proteins
Kidney function
Pancreatic function (exo and endo)
Liver function
Anemia
Cardiovascular risks
Thyroid
|
| 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.
The contribution of this Teaching Unit to the development and
command of the skills and learning outcomes of the programme(s) can be
accessed at the end of this sheet, in the section entitled
“Programmes/courses offering this Teaching Unit”.

| 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.
