Objectives of the BlockBy the end of the course, students should be able to:• Understand the relationship between the structure of the
different components of the renal system and their functions.
• Discuss the biochemistry, pathology, microbiology, pathogenesis and factors contributing to the development of
most common diseases affecting renal system.• Use basic science to explain patient’s sign and symptoms;
– interpret investigation results, and
– provide justification for their views.
• Develop communication skills and explore psychosocial and ethical issues in their assessment.
• Use clinical cases to apply knowledge learnt, generate hypotheses, build an enquiry plan, and use evidence to refine their hypothesis, justify their views.
• Design a brief management plan, and understand the pharmacological basis of drugs used in the management of common diseases affecting the renal system.
• Enhance their communication skills, and practice with the help of simulation patients to improve their communication in relation to renal case scenarios.
Teaching and Learning Modes:
Learning strategies include: Small group discussion Lectures Student-led seminars Practical classes. Clinical skills Independent learning Writing an essay or mini thesis.
