Donnay Isabelle;

Language

French

Prerequisites

Recommended knowledge of advanced notions of biochemistry, anatomy of internal organs, nerves and vessels, and histology to understand the course of physiology (cardiovascular, renal, respiratory) Essential knowledge of the basic notions of physiology to understand the course of physiology (cardiovascular, renal, respiratory)
The prerequisite(s) for this Teaching Unit (Unité d’enseignement – UE) for the programmes/courses that offer this Teaching Unit are specified at the end of this sheet.

Main themes

The main subjects covered in this course are endocrinology, reproductive physiology, digestive physiology, cardiovascular physiology as well as renal and respiratory physiology. Part 1 (1q - 9 credits - 90-10) : digestive physiology (36h), endocrinology and reproductive physiology (54h) Part 2 (2q- 4 credits- 45-20) : cardiovascular, renal and respiratory physiology

Content

Courses deals mainly with domestic mammals (ruminants, pigs, horses, dogs and cats). Other species such as birds and rodents are also addressed. The accent is brought on the importance of the regulation of physiological functions, among others by presenting simple pathological situations.
The course is splitted into two parts
The partim B deals with cardiovascular physiology, respiratory physiology and renal physiology

Teaching methods

Courses in auditorium. Simple clinical cases will be addressed. Students are invited to answer quizzes via the Wooclap application.

Evaluation methods

Oral examination with written preparation. The student's ability to make connections between the parts of the course (and other courses) as well as their reasoning ability will be part of the assessment.
