Module-inhoud:

Six case studies that involve either clinical cases or public health cases (such as outbreaks or other public health scenarios). The cases will be presented online, one every 6 weeks, during the second year of the diploma. The scenarios will be accompanied by questions that will require desktop research and thought as well as a mastery of the materials learned during the first year, in order to answer the questions well. Each case study will be worth 5 credits and an overall mark will be provided for the six case studies. A detailed study guide will be provided online.
Module-inhoud:
*Hierdie inligting is slegs in Engels beskikbaar.
This is a research report consisting of a case series of a group of three patients with a specific infectious disease; or an infectious disease theme. The cases are selected and written up to illustrate an important clinical principle or report on or to demonstrate a variation in presentations and/ or treatment responses etc. The series must “tell a story” and offer insight rather than merely recording the clinical details of the disease episodes (although such documentation is required as part of the report).
Module-inhoud:
Students will learn how to investigate and determine the cause of a disease outbreak for both when the disease in question is known and when the disease in question is unknown. They will learn how to use appropriate study designs and to calculate attack rates and odds ratios in order to investigate outbreaks. They will learn how to write outbreak investigation reports.
