Upon completion of the course, students will be able to:

Understand the main pathophysiological mechanisms underlying medical and surgical emergencies, with particular emphasis on conditions that may arise during diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in radiology.

Recognize early signs and symptoms of clinical deterioration, including respiratory failure, cardiovascular instability, shock, adverse reactions to contrast media, and loss of consciousness.

Understand the fundamental principles of first aid, basic life support (BLS), and vital signs monitoring, and identify situations requiring prompt activation of emergency response procedures and medical assistance.

Understand the pharmacological principles of drugs commonly used in emergency settings, with particular attention to contrast media, adverse drug reactions, drug interactions, and medications used during emergencies and diagnostic procedures.

Understand the principles of patient care, safe handling, and management of critically ill patients during radiological procedures, working collaboratively with other healthcare professionals within the scope of their professional responsibilities.

Develop the ability to assess potentially hazardous clinical situations and communicate effectively with healthcare professionals, contributing to p

Basic knowledge of human anatomy, physiology, general pathology, and pharmacology, required to understand the main clinical emergencies and the principles of first aid.
