Last update: Mgr. Ivana Kinkorová, Ph.D. (10.11.2023)
The subject acquaints with functions of all organ systems of the human body both in the resting and load conditions. Special attention is paid to regulatory processes, methods of the functional examination and the function of neuromuscular system with reference to motor control. The course is focused on the acquisition of theoretical knowledge in the field of anatomy and their application to the functioning of individual organ systems of the human body.
Aim of the course -
Last update: Mgr. Ivana Kinkorová, Ph.D. (10.11.2023)

The subject introduces the functions of all organ systems of the human body in resting conditions and under stress. The subject introduces students to basic physiological principles, the theory of homeostasis and the functions of various organs and systems of the human body and their management (including the circulatory, respiratory, gastrointestinal, excretory, endocrine, muscular, nervous and sensory systems, as well as metabolism and thermoregulation). Increased attention is paid to physiological regulation and the neuromuscular system, taking into account the child and adolescent organism.

Knowledge:

basic concepts of cellular and subcellular structures and their meaning

Fundamentals of the cardiovascular system (mechanical and metabolic processes in the myocardium, vascular system – structure and function, measurement and influence of blood pressure – regulatory mechanisms of the heart and blood vessels)

basics of structure and function of blood and immune system

physiology of the respiratory system (ventilation, distribution, diffusion, perfusion, determination of respiratory parameters, nervous and chemical regulation of breathing)

physiology of the digestive system (splitting, digestion and absorption of food components and their regulation in individual parts of the GIT, gastrointestinal hormones and their effects)

energy balance (basics of metabolic processes in the body)

physiology of the excretory system (formation and composition of urine, regulatory mechanisms, influence of kidney function on maintaining the stability of the internal environment). Physiology of endocrine glands (formation and secretion of hormones of individual glands and their functions, stress, sexual system – management and functions)

Skills:

The student can describe the composition of the human body, the importance of individual functionally specific cells, the composition and function of the cardiovascular system and blood, as well as the connection with the state of immunity, describe the mechanical and electrical activity of the heart. It includes the basics of the inflammatory process in relation to immunity, describes metabolic processes, ion changes and subsequent changes.

Can describe the structure and function of the respiratory system, their measurability with an emphasis on the regulatory mechanisms of breathing (nervous, hormonal and other chemical influences).

Can describe the function of individual parts of the digestive system, enzymatic and other processes.

As part of the excretory system, he is able to describe in detail the acidification and alkalization of urine, the influence of the kidneys on maintaining the stability of the internal environment and functioning as an endocrine organ. He will be able to describe the structure and function of individual endocrine glands and the influence of their hormones on other organs, including the regulatory mechanisms of hormonal control.

Competence

The student is competent to use the acquired knowledge from physiology for their application and connection with related subjects such as pathological physiology, exercise physiology, biomechanics or nutrition.

search, sort and assess information related to physiological processes, use the information obtained in everyday practice.
