Introductory Course - Paediatrics
Dear students!
Welcome to Pediatric, which of course is the most interesting and greatest specialty in medicine. We are of course not biased at all :-)
We have prepared an Introduction Course for you on the 7th and 8th of February to give you a taste of what pediatrics is all about! Each student is assigned to a half day course where we will go through some off the basic things you will learn this semester. This will be a very intense half day for you! There will be 5 stations were two groups (eight students) will rotate through the stations having 20-25 min lectures (and only 5 mins breaks) on each of the following subjects:
* How to recognize an acute sick child
* Growth and development
* Neurological examination in children
* History taking and examination including ENT examination in children – what is different in children compared with adults?
* Newborn examination
We will also have a short session with all of you at the end of the course where we will talk about the 3+1 admissions (innkomst journaler) you will be doing this semester. You will also be able to ask questions.
We look forward to seeing you.
On behalf of the teachers,
Christina Bjerring Opheim
