NUR 5313 - Advanced Pathophysiology

Credits: 3
This course focuses on the pathogenesis of human disease based on a molecular and cellular framework. Regulatory and compensatory mechanisms that aim at maintaining and restoring homeostasis in response to changes in the internal and external environment are explored. Students are encouraged to apply critical thinking processes of deduction, induction, analysis, and synthesis in integrating pathophysiologic alterations encountered in their clinical practice with the theoretical framework presented in class.
Prerequisite(s): Undergraduate Pathophysiology course.
