Teaching Methodologies
The teaching of the program contents will be done mainly through oral exposure, complemented with audio-visual
methods, always appealing to the direct intervention of the students, favouring openly an abundant iconography
instead of the detriment of a theoretical-descriptive teaching. Students will be evaluated through a summary written
test, consisting of questions that evaluate the extent and depth of the theoretical knowledge acquired in the subject
and the ability of practical application of that knowledge to everyday situations and the specific scientific area of
the course.
Learning Results
The student must acquire knowledge of:
• Methods and techniques for the diagnosis of cardiac, respiratory, neurological and vascular diseases.
• It is intended to provide students with an overall view of the technology of diagnostic methods in
Cardiopneumoplogy and neurophysiology.
The student must acquire skills of:
• For the reflection on the profession’s nature, their characteristics and performance contexts
• Assume itself as an agent for the provision of clinical acts to the patient, seeing technology as a means and not as
the goal.
The student must acquire competences of:
• Develop the ability to retain and in the future expand their knowledge in cardiac anatomic physiopathology,
pulmonary, vascular and neurological.
• At the end of the curricular unit, it is expected that the student will be able to: know the indications and limitations
of the methods studied; Identify and interpret physiological patterns and its variants.
