An exam from another subject is not a reason to excuse non-participation in internships. You have to sign up for other dates!

 

Patient's medical record

Prepare the medical record in A4 format (1-2 pages). Submit on the last day of internships. In the event that 1 patient is examined by several students, each student must process, write and bring the medical record himself (not one copy).

The patient's medical record must contain: 

  • Student identification (name, study group)
  • Patient identification (only initials, age) 

Structure of medical record: 

  • Current disease (at least 1-2 paragraphs)
  • Epidemiological history

  • Personal history
  • Social anamnesis
  • Allergological history
  • Objective finding - Status praesens generalis, Status praesens localis (full range as in internal propaedeutics)
  • Relevant laboratory results
  • Results of other relevant examinations
  • Diagnostic conclusion
  • Differential diagnostic
  • Proposed treatment
  • and possible other diagnostic procedures

 

Conditions for taking the exam and granting credit

  • completion of 5 days of practicals at the Department of Infectious Diseases and Geographical Medicine
  • elaboration and referencing of the patient's medical record
  • successful completion of a written test (more than 60 %)
  • oral exam, consisting of 2 questions

 

Exam

 

The oral exam takes place in the week following the end of the block on Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday. The dates for the exam are announced on the first day of the practicals in AIS2 and it is possible to register for the exam only in the week that is determined for the given block. If the student does not apply for this date, then he has another option within the examination period of the relevant semester. In a justified case, please contact roscakova1@uniba.sk by e-mail with a request for another date.

The exam consists of a written test and an oral exam.

 

Written test

The written test lasts 50 minutes. The test has 100 questions with 4 possible answers (several answers may be correct, but at least 1). Upon successful completion of the final test (minimum 60 %), the student can pass an oral exam.

Topics of test questions
Test evaluation

 

Oral examination

You will draw 2 questions on the oral exam. You have about 20 minutes to prepare. If you do not need preparation, you can answer immediately, without preparation. The evaluation will be registered in AIS2 within 24 hours.

Oral examination

 

Notice for all GM students (except those included in the Erasmus programme)!

It is prohibited by the study department to change subjects within the semester! The next week after completing the practicals is the deadline for taking the exam of your block. If you do not use it and go to another subject despite this ban, you must take the exam only in the exam period.

Notice for students of the Erasmus programme!

Do not register for the listed exam date if you are studying another subject at that time! You are assigned to a study group with which you do not have quite the same curriculum. In the event that you have another subject on the exam date for your block, ask the head of the department in writing by e-mail to sabaka1@uniba.sk for a different date. If you register and don't come to the exam, you get a "didn't come" and an "Fx" grade.
