Writing Assessment of student participation in clinical practice.

The course constitutes a tool for introducing students to the basic principles of the pathophysiology ofdiseases of the urogenital system. It also introduces students, through clinical practice, to the basicprinciples of urogenital surgery (open and endoscopic). Finally, it contributes to the acquisition of deductive reason ingwhic his considered essential for the proper initiation of students intot he medical profession.

Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to:

•  Has an understanding of the basic principles of the pathophysiology of the genitourinary system.
• Analyzes clinical data to make a diagnosis
• Has knowledge of the main diagnostic tests and the rapeutic applications (interventional and non-interventional).
• Able to distinguish the main diseases of the urogenital system
• Uses acquired knowledge inany subspecial ty related to the subject.
• Work with fellow students to approach the importance of collaboration and scientific debate by actively participating in discussion groups.

GENERAL SKILLS

Students must acquire communication skills in order to effectively discuss sensitive issues with patients. They must also have the basis of problem-solving skills for complex conditions. In addition, must be able to work effectively with other medical professionals, such as primary care physicians, surgeons, and radiologists.
