Internal medicine for non-medical medical disciplines

The book is intended for students of the undergraduate program of medical and health-social faculties and higher professional schools with a medical focus. The publication is specifically designed for students of all non-medical disciplines, who must know the etiology, the manifestations and diagnosis of individual pathological conditions from the point of view of the diagnostician (in the case of study disciplines focused on diagnostic methods, such as a medical laboratory technician or radiology assistant) or a therapist working under the direct or methodical guidance of a physician (in the case of physiotherapist studies, paramedic, midwife, nutritional assistant and others). The skills and knowledge that students will gain after studying the textbook will not only help them to provide quality care to patients, but also to become equal members of the healthcare team.

The members of the author team who prepared the second edition are again highly erudite experts who are involved in teaching the aforementioned health professionals. The publication excellently handles the didactic interpretation of complex issues.

The textbook is divided according to the individual disciplines of internal medicine and is supplemented with basic information from internal medicine, an overview of symptoms and syndromes and the basics of crisis management in health care. The text is enriched with graphs, tables, figures and photographs.
