It is recommended to have reached the competences of the following subjects: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Cellular Biology, Human Anatomy (I and II), Histology, Human Genetics, Psychological Bases, General Pathology, Fundamentals of Surgery, Microbiology, Radiology and Physical Medicine, Pathological Anatomy, Pharmacology, Immunology, Epidemiology, Obstetrics and Gynaecology.
It would be advisable to review, in order to have sufficient knowledge of the basic sciences, given that these were take three or four years ago. It is convenient be familiar with the physiopathology, the semiology, the general propaedeutic, with the purpose of facing the study of these clinical subjects and the indication and interpretation of the tests for complementary diagnostics. The knowledge of pharmacology is necessary in order to be able to make the prescriptions and opportune indications in the different pathologies and to evaluate the iatrogenic or toxic possibilities.
Sufficient knowledge about the psychological basis of health status and disease is recommended as well as an adequate level of knowledge in interpersonal communication and professional behaviour.
The student will preserve confidentiality and professional secrecy of the data that may be accessible during apprenticeships in clinical care services. Also, to maintain an attitude of professional ethics in all their actions.
Infectious diseases:
The teaching of infectious pathology in undergraduate medical studies can be defined as the activities designed to provide the student with a level of competence in this area, suitable for a particular field of study as well as a solid basis for being able to acquire one's own competencies in the future of this specialty.
The infectious pathology has a series of differential characteristics
1. Its contents are transversal, similar to oncology.
2. It is a medical discipline.
3. It is a very extensive discipline.
Not all the potential contents of infectious pathology have to be part of a subject. Sometimes they have to be share with other specialities. The distribution of contents will depend on the different organization of the hospital services, university departments and of the lines of research.
Good coordination with the Microbiology course is important for an adequate vertical integration between the two subjects.
A very important question is how to approach the teaching plan. In many programs, an etiological criterion is followed. This conception contrasts with the clinical reality, in which the diseases are show in form of syndromes. The syndromic approach will be fundamental in orienting diagnosis and behaviour in the face of most clinical situations, however, the etiological approach, may be valid in some cases, for particularly relevant microorganisms or groups of microorganisms. Likewise and although during the degree the priority has to be the infections of the community with the highest prevalence, it is also necessary to incorporate into the teaching plan notions of nosocomial infection, international health, and the practical use of antimicrobial agents.
Therefore, the objectives of training are that the student will have to acquire the theoretical knowledge and the practical antimicrobial skills needed to identify the main problems caused byinfectious diseases. It will also be required to guide the diagnosis and treatment of the main community infectious diseases and hospital infections. You will also need to acquire the right attitudes in your relation with the patients and thus with the rest of the health providers, especially the nurses.
Geriatrics
The fundamental purpose is to study of the sick elderly person, emphasizing those aspects differentials that appear especially in very advanced stages of life, which includes knowledge of physiological changes that occur in this stage: concept of fragility, main geriatric syndromes, impact of surgery in the elderly and convalescence, more prevalent diseases and health Organization.

Management of complex situations in Geriatrics
This Guide describes the framework, contents, methodology and general rules of the subject, in accordance with the current curriculum. The final organization of the course with respect to the number and size of groups, calendar distribution and dates of examinations, specific criteria for evaluation and review of examinations will be carried out in each of the Teaching Hospital Units (HTU), which will explain to the students through their web pages and the first day of class of each subject, through the teachers responsible for the subject in the HTU.
In the current exceptional circumstances, at the discretion of the teachers and also depending on the resources available and the public health situation, some of the theoretical classes, practical and seminars organized by the Teaching Units may be taught either in person or virtually.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

This subject does not provide the single assessment system.
The evaluation system is based on a theoretical part (70% of the final grade) and a practical part (30% of the final grade).
For the theoretical part (70%):
Two partial theory exams will be scheduled, which will be eliminatory when the grade obtained in each of them is greater than 5.
For the practical part (30%)
The evaluation of the practical part will be specified in the program of each HTU according to its particularities and will be based on the evaluation of clinical case seminars and the Practices of advanced clinical simulation (PSCA). According to the particularities of each Teaching Unit and subject, the practices/seminars may be evaluated on an ongoing basis and will be specify in the programme of each HTU.
The student, who has not passed the partials and/or has not passed the practical part, may attend the final recovery test containing a theoretical part and a practical part.
Depending on the criteria of responsible professors and the available resources in each teaching unit, part of the contents of the theory lectures or practical seminars can be delivered and evaluated in the simulation rooms with the corresponding methodology.
Final Qualification
The final grade is the weighted average of theoretical knowledge (70%) and practical assessment (30%). The weighting of each of the partials in the final grade will be proportional to the subject content and may not exceed 50%.
It will not be possible to make the average between the theoretical evaluation and the practical evaluation, if a minimum score of 5/10 is not obtained for both parts.
Students who have not passed each subject by means of partial examinations and who on the day of the final exam have not submitted all required parts will be qualified as "NOT ASSESSABLE".
