Aim of the course -
Last update: prof. MUDr. Andrej Sukop, Ph.D. (10.12.2019)

The aim of this issue is an  introduction to the surgery on theorecal and practical way.

A. Seminars explain theoretically:

Introduction, history of surgery, surgical branches and specializations. Examination of the patient in surgery.

Basic guide and keeping of medical documentation in surgery

Basic principles of the first aid and emergency care (blood circulation and cardiovascular system, respiration and ventilation, state of consciousness). Basic characteristics of the shock, preventive care of the shock in the first aid.

Common surgical issues: nosologic units (tumors, cysts, ulcers, sinuses and fistulas, necrosis, gangrene), parallel diseases and problems (metabolic, cardiovascular, ventilation, psychological, and psychiatric), specific aspects (childhood, old age).

 Technologies in surgery- endoscope and endoscopy, microscope and microsurgery, highly specialized devices. Surgical medical supplies- types of bandages and dressings, suture materials, basic instruments.

Administration of medicaments: injections, infusions, installations, infiltration, and others (ingestion, sticking-plaster, gel, cream, ointment, eye and ear drops).

Surgical drainage, catheterization.

Wound types and characteristics, wound healing (first intention, second intention). Hemorrhage, bleeding, physiological and surgical hemostasis. Inflammation and infection in surgery (wound, local, systemic, general), prevention of the tetanus, nosocomial infection.

Management of the operation theatre, surgical team. Asepsis, antisepsis, means and types of sterilization and disinfection. Preoperative management of the patient (local, general), including surgical field itself. Local and general postoperative treatment, postoperative complications.

 Nutrition and dietetics in surgery.Physiotherapy in surgery.

B. The next goal presents the practical knowledge and training in dressing techniques, surgical instruments, types of suture material, sutures and other types of  skin closure., prepare of surgeon to surgery,  donning the gown and gloves, basic techniques of wound suturing, dressings: ward and outpatient department, and assisting of surgery at operating theatres.
