AB  - Background: COVID-19 has affected the educational systems across the world. During the lockdown period, the General Nursing Care studies - in the form of the Distance Educational Program of our university - took place only using a remote form of teaching via the online plat-form with the exclusion of regular contact sessions. This study aimed to assess the objective results and the satisfaction rate of the students attending the course of Anatomy during this alternative form of teaching and compare them with ones from previous and subsequent unaltered academic years; Methods: For this study, we used the online questionnaire method and the analysis of the official students' results (Number of students, who were able to pass the final ex-am successfully and number of students, who discontinued their university studies after the first year); Results: While maintaining the same syllabus, teaching materials and study conditions within the study of Anatomy during the COVID pandemic, the exclusion of contact sessions resulted in the decline of both - success and satisfaction rates within the given subject and the education mentioned above at the university. Two years after the pandemic, we realized an increase in both parameters, but the success rate was not at the same level as before the pandemic; Conclusions: We discuss the remote form of teaching as the enforced alternative under the state of emergency, not as the possible standard in the education in health sciences. Disruption of the education system still has recognizable consequences even two years later.
