Methodologies |
Description | |
PBL (Problem Based Learning) | Based on a publication or a clinical case presented, discussion will be promoted among students about the different aspects described, as well as possible diagnostic, therapeutic and prophylactic alternatives. |
Clinical practicums | Based on different clinical cases, students will carry out the corresponding clinical examination, the necessary diagnostic tests and their interpretation, which will allow the corresponding diagnosis to be issued. Issue possible differential diagnoses. They must also propose the appropriate therapeutic and preventive measures. In a subsequent session, students will present their conclusions and the cases they have worked on will be discussed. This activity may be replaced by other resources such as audiovisual records or publications about different clinical cases, in which students, in small groups, will work and discuss these resources. At all times, personalized attention will be provided by the teachers to the students and the work done will be valued. |
Case study | Propose various aspects of one or more pathologies to present to the rest of the group. Based on a specific topic, students, in small groups, must search for bibliographic information and issue a reasoned criticism of said publications. Your ability to synthesize and select bibliographic information will be valued. At all times, personalized attention will be provided by the teachers to the students. |
