Medical Technology Education Flashcards
Under the office of the president of
the Philippines that covers
institutions of higher education both
public and private
Commission on higher education
Under CHED, composed of leading
academicians and practitioners
responsible for setting standards
among institutions who offers
BSMT/BSMLS
Technical committee for medical technology education
aims to
develop foundational knowledge, skills,
values and habits necessary for students
General education courses
What does CHED stand for
Commission on higher education
What does TCMTE stand for
Technical committee for medical technology education
are for learners to
develop the knowledge, technical
competence, professional attitude and
values necessary to practice and meet the
demands of the profession
Professional courses
introduction to MLS, lab safety and waste management
PMTP 1
clinical laboratory assistant and phlebotomy
PMTP 2
study of foundations of community
health. It emphasizes the promotion
of community, public and
environmental health through
immersion of student with the people
of the community
Community and public health
study of concepts
and principles of hereditary and
inheritance. Also discusses the
abnormalities and genetic disorders
Cytogenetics
study of fundamentals of cell, tissues, and
organs with emphasis on
microscopic structures,
characteristics, differences, and
functions
Human histology
discusses techniques in
histopathology section of the
laboratory for preparation of tissue
samples collected
Histopathologic techniques with cytology
Preparation of culture media, Collection of specimen, Preparation of bacteria
smear, Inoculation of samples, Characterization of colonies, Biochemical testing, Antimicrobial Susceptibility testing
Clinical bacteriology
- microscopic identification of parasites that are
pathogenic to man (e.g. nematodes,
trematodes, cestodes, protozoa, etc)
Clinical parasitology
- tackles the concept of
inheritance, characterization and
laboratory identification of red cell
antigens and their corresponding
antibodies (e.g. ABO and Rh typing,
blood donation process)
Immunohematology and blood banking
deals with the study of fungi and viruses
Mycology and virology
planning, organizing, staffing,
directing and controlling in a clinical
laboratory setting
Laboratory management
planning, organizing, staffing,
directing and controlling in a clinical
laboratory setting
Laboratory management
about laws and
administrative orders and legal
documents related to the practice of
MT in the Philippines
Medical technology laws and bioethics
study of
concepts of blood as a tissue. Study
of procedures and tests perform for
laboratory such as CBC, platelet
count, blood smearing and many
others
Hematology 1 and 2
focuses on urine and other body fluids (except
blood)
Clinical microscopy
encompasses the concepts and
principles of physiologically active
soluble substances and waste
materials present in the body fluids,
particularly in blood
Clinical chemistry 1 and 2
taken during 4th
year in the program together with
internship
Seminar 1 and 2
deals with nucleic
acid and protein molecule interaction
within the cell. It also deals with the
application of different molecular
techniques as tools in the diagnosis
of diseases
Molecular biology and diagnostics
introduction to laboratory science research
Research 1
research paper writing and presentation
Research 2
