Students know the symptoms and syndromes of individual mental illnesses in order to be able to establish the most likely diagnosis when examining a patient. Students are able to carry out an empathic interview with patients and, through it, collect anamnestic data from patients necessary to complete a psychiatric examination. This means finding out a brief summary of the problems, who recommended them for examination and treatment, who admitted them for treatment, with what diagnosis, how many psychiatric examinations or hospitalizations they have already completed. Can take family and personal history. Students know how to take a personal psychiatric history. They are able to find out the history of substance use and gambling. Students are able to find out subjective developmental difficulties and subjective experiences of childhood and adolescence from patients through interviews. They are able to find out the patient's current education and schooling, current employment and functioning of the patient in the work team. They are able to take a patient's sexual and marital history, social history, and ask patients about their past and present legal problems. Students are able to find out from the patients their hobbies, completion of military service and possession of driver's and firearms licenses. They are able to ask patients a subjective opinion about their character traits and other plans for the future. When performing a psychiatric examination, students can find out in an interview all the circumstances of the current illness, which are necessary to determine the symptoms and their development over time in patients. As part of a psychiatric examination, students are able to examine attention, short-term and long-term memory, working memory, abstract thinking and intellect.
After examining the patient, students are able to write an objective psychiatric description of the patient using psychopathological terminology. At the same time, they can describe the patient's appearance, willingness to be examined, speech, behaviour, consciousness, orientation, attention, psychomotor speed, mood, perception, thinking, impulses, memory and intellect, premorbid personality and insight into the disease. They are able to describe the syndromes present.
After examining the patient, they are able to elaborate on the differential diagnosis, stating the arguments for and against the individual probable diagnoses. They are able to determine the most probable diagnosis of the patient and establish a plan for additional examinations to confirm it. I.e. laboratory, imaging, functional, social and, possibly, addition of an objective anamnesis (so-called heteroanamnesis). They are able to determine the patient's treatment plan using psychopharmaceuticals, stimulation methods of treatment, social and work rehabilitation.
