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.
Other information
Pre-requisite : Two BAC years in a medical or paramedical area
Evaluation : written exam : both development and short questions or MCQ
Support : Slides and notes on I-campus
varia : the department of clinical biology proposes to students the possibility to perform probationary periods (1 or 2 months) in routine clinical laboratories
