Sažetak
Aim: The main aim of implementation of basic clinical procedures in our anatomy course is to demonstrate the importance of sound anatomical knowledge for confident practical work. Methods: Anatomy seminars and practical classes are accompanied with visual presentation of particular clinical procedures using An@tomedia CD-ROM, and the same procedures are afterwards practiced and performed on cadavers. Particular attention is focused on invasive procedures affecting the integrity of skin or mucosa (eg. intercostal catheterization or lumbar puncture). A list of indications for every particular procedure is compiled (less important) in addition to a detailed description of ‘layers that are traversed’ and ‘anatomical structures that are endangered’ during the particular procedure (more important). Results: We are certain that the following benefits will be achieved: improvement of basic anatomical concepts and principles, improvement of body parts manipulation skills, understanding of benefits and risks of even simple clinical procedures, raising interest for clinical and applied anatomy, putting pressure on clinicians (during clinical years) to repeat basic procedures on patients, raising confidence of first year students in general. Conclusion: We believe that implementation of basic clinical skills in anatomical courses would make anatomy classes even more interesting and enjoyable for both students and teachers. We also believe that those acquired skills would lead to much more confident students and ease the approach to real patients.
