Course Name: MEDICINE - III (NEUROLOGY)

Code(Credit): CUTM1988 (3-1-2)

Course Objectives:

  • To understand the Aetiology, Pathophysiology, signs & Symptoms & Management of the various Neurological conditions. 
  • Acquire skill of history taking and clinical examination of Neurological conditions as a part of clinical teaching
  • Acquire knowledge of various drugs used for each medical condition to understand its effects and its use during therapy. 
  • Development of clinical problem-solving skills. 
  • Development of strategies for health promotion and prevention of neurological damage.

Course Outcome:

COS     OUTCOME                                                       MAPPING COS WITH POS 

                                                                                            (High-3; Medium-2; Low-1)        

CO1     Understand how to recognize and interpret abnormal findings              PO1(3), PO2(2), 

               on the neurological exam, be able to distinguish between                      PO5(2), PO10(2)

              upper and lower motor neuron findings, nerve root/plexus, peripheral nerve,

              neuromuscular junction, and muscle
                    

CO2    Know the aetiology, Classification, Pathology,                        PO1(3), PO7(1)

            Clinical Features, Relevant Investigations, 

            Complications, Surgical & Non Surgical Management 

            of various Neurological Conditions.                       

CO3   Acquire knowledge of various drugs used for                         PO1(2), PO2 (2)

          each medical condition to understand its effects

          and its use during therapy.

Course Syllabus:

Module I

  • Neuroanatomy: Review the basic anatomy of the brain and spinal cord including: Blood supply of the brain and spinal cord, anatomy of the visual pathway, connections of the cerebellum and extrapyramidal system, relationship of the spinal nerves to the spinal cord segments, long tracts of the spinal cords, the brachial and lambar plexus and cranial nerves.
