PMED1100 Anatomi, fysiologi og biokjemi Emneplan

I klinisk akuttmedisin er en paramedisiner avhengig av å ha god basiskompetanse om kroppens oppbygging og funksjon samt samspillet mellom disse. Kompetanse i anatomi og fysiologi gir grunnlaget for selvstendig vurdering av alvorlighetsgrad og behov for tiltak hos pasienter med akutt sykdom og skade. Emnet gir studenten kunnskap om normale fysiologiske prosesser, som er avgjørende for å forstå sykdomsprosesser og skademekanismer.

Kompetanse ervervet fra dette emnet gir et viktig grunnlag for videre tilegnelse av kunnskap i generell sykdomslære, akuttmedisin og farmakologi. Det er samtidig viktig at paramedisineren lærer å anvende medisinsk fagterminologi for å kunne beskrive ulike tilstander og kommunisere strukturert og objektivt med annet helsepersonell.

Emnet gir i tillegg en innføring i ulike mikrobers oppbygging og funksjon, og deres samspill med mennesket. Dette gir blant annet grunnlag for vurdering og behandling av pasienter med akutte tilstander forårsaket av infeksjoner.

Studenten må være tatt opp på studiet.

Risk management has become an indispensable tool for the management of non-financial and financial corporations alike. This course will make students familiar with risk measurement and management techniques, their advantages and deficiencies. We will cover different sources of risks and how to measure and manage those risks, with a particular focus on financial risks and value at risk. The course will also discuss the economic rationale for risk management, the regulation of banks, and analyze the role of risk management in the last financial crisis and in connection with famous bankruptcies like Long Term Capital Management and Lehman Brothers.

In risk management, we make heavy use of derivative securities to hedge against risks. For that reason, it is recommended that the student has completed ØABED4200 Derivatives. The class is quantitative and will employ spreadsheets.
