Course description: Toxicology is defined as a science that studies toxins, where the term poisons contain a substance that causes adverse effects
on living organisms. Course content will introduce students to a variety of forms and mechanisms of toxicity to the living
organism and on the environment with particular emphasis on the field of clinical toxicology.
Special attention will
be devoted to analyzes which are needed in emergency situations with the aim of diagnostic significance and prognostic value
in the further treatment of the patient, but also the increasing significance of determination of drug concentrations during
treatment. Clinical laboratory diagnosis of poisoning will include familiarization with the increasing number of methodological
analysis which is primarily aimed at determining the patient's condition, then the cause of poisoning (measurement of biochemical
parameters of the patient, determining the specific effects of the poison, the analysis of toxicological screening, detection
of specific toxins).
