GENERAL INFO:
Practices will be carried out in teaching laboratories under supervision. You work independently, in pairs or in small groups. We practice how to work in a clinical laboratory environment and apply what we have learned in theory. PARTICIPATION IN THE LABORATORY PRACTICES IS MANDATORY. Absences must always be reported to the teacher and a way to compensate for the absence must be agreed upon.

HEMATOLOGY I:
Blood cell production: erythropoiesis, granulocytopoiesis, thrombopoiesis, lymphopoiesis, monocytopoiesis. Function of the coagulation system: primary haemostasis, secondary haemostasis and fibronolytic system.
Laboratory tests: Complete blood count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, MGG staining, preparation and evaluation of peripheral blood smear and basic laboratory diagnostics to evaluate the function of the coagulation system.
