AimsToggle Navigation
• General Competences:
G140: To be able to provide technical and professional health care appropriate to the health needs of the people in the field of nursing. This should be in accordance with the state of development of scientific knowledge and with the levels of quality and safety established in the applicable legal and deontological regulations.
G145: To base nursing interventions on scientific evidence and available resources.
G153: To establish evaluation mechanisms, considering scientific-technical and quality aspects.
• Learning Results:
The student should acquire the knowledge that enables to know the role of Nursing in the pre-analytical phase for a correct execution of the analytical process and to know how to interpret in a basic way the analytical parameters of routine laboratory.
TemaryToggle Navigation
Master class:
1. Role of Nursing in the pre-analytic phase: Definition of the pre-analytical phase and the role of nursing in the different constitutive processes: analytical request, preparation of the patient, obtaining the sample, conservation and stability, interferences.
2. Interpretation of hematological results: Basic study of hematimetry and hemostasis. Approximation to hematological alterations and coagulation of greater clinical prevalence and their analytical expression.
3. Interpretation of biochemical results: Basic approach to routine and emergency biochemistry. Approximation to the biochemical expression of respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive, renal and endocrine-metabolic most common pathologies.
4. Infectious serology: Basic study of serological markers in viral hepatitis, HIV infection and others.
Supervised seminars: Laboratory findings in the most clinically relevant health alterations.
Laboratory practices: Basic urinalysis test.
MethodologyToggle Navigation
The subject has master classes focused on the transmission of theoretical knowledge by the teacher, through continuous oral presentation, during which students can participate by asking questions or answering questions asked by the teacher.
In addition, laboratory practices are carried out, so that the student consolidates, expands and verifies the theoretical program, by the experimentation of a basic analysis of urine and completing the practical exercises provided by the teacher. Laboratory practices are compulsory.
In the seminars, they will work in groups on a topic, which an oral presentation. Likewise, they will have to present the written work.
Assessment systemsToggle Navigation
Ordinary Call. Tools and grading percentages:
- Multiple test choice (questions about the master program, practical and seminars): 60%
- Practices (practical exercise on routine urine analysis): 10%
- Teamwork (problem solving, project design, written or/ and oral presentation): 30%
It will be obligatory to pass all three parts (50% or more in the test, practices and teamwork) to pass the subject.
