Course content
"Laboratory diagnosis of viral infections" includes the study of viral infections, the peculiarities of acute and chronic diseases, taking into account the individual characteristics of the patient and his attitude to the disease. The course is designed to summarize the student's understanding of the definition, classification, pathogenesis, clinical and laboratory diagnosis of common viral infections. Knowledge of epidemiological and laboratory features of infectious diseases which are accompanied by respiratory, hepatic and other syndromes, will allow for early diagnosis, diagnosis at the prehospital stage, which will ensure timely appointment of appropriate treatment to the patient and the necessary preventive measures. and influences on the pathogenesis of infection, basic infection prevention measures and approaches to HIV therapy and control.
