It is important to understand interaction between different systems. Knowledge of basic sciences, cytology and histology are needed to understand human physiology. This course is needed for general and specific pathology and related revalidation and rehabilitation processes. Contents 1. Knowledge and understanding of the anatomy of the heart and blood vessels (including lymphatic system), respiratory, digestive, excretory, endocrine system, and reproductive system. 2. Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the cardiovascular system (heart, blood vessels, lymph vessels, blood) 3. Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the respiratory system. 4. Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the digestive system 5. Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the excretory system 6. Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the endocrine system. 7. Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the reproductive system. Initial competences Based on chemistry, biochemistry, physics, cytology and histology, so this course is (Approved) 1 only being added to the curriculum, when the following courses are part of the curriculum: 'Chemistry and Introduction to Biological Chemistry', 'Biochemistry' and 'Cytology and histology' or when the inherent competences have been acquired in another way. Final competences 1 Knowledge and understanding of the anatomy of the heart and blood vessels 1 (including lymphatic system), respiratory, digestive, excretory, endocrine system, and 1 reproductive system. 1 1 2 Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the cardiovascular 1 system (heart, blood vessels, lymph vessels, blood) 1 1 3 Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the respiratory 1 system. 1 1 4 Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the digestive 1 system 1 1 5 Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the excretory 1 system. 6 Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the endocrine 1 system. 1 1 7 Knowledge and understanding of the histology and physiology of the reproductive 1 system.

Students can ask after the colleges. Evaluation methods end-of-term evaluation Examination methods in case of periodic evaluation during the first examination period Written examination with open questions, written examination with multiple choice questions Examination methods in case of periodic evaluation during the second examination period Written examination with open questions, written examination with multiple choice questions Examination methods in case of permanent evaluation Possibilities of retake in case of permanent evaluation not applicable (Approved) 2 Calculation of the examination mark The exam contains 4 parts: (a) multiple choice anatomy (/20) taking into account the standard setting (weigth: 20%) (b) Physiology (80%): This part is subdivided in three: (1) multiple choice (/20) taking into account the standard setting (2) two sub-questions (each at 10, total 20) (3) open question (/ 20) The overall score is a mathematical sum of the scores, unless a score of less than 8/20 is obtained for anatomy or one of the three parts in physiology. In that case the highest possible score is 9/20. (Approved) 3
