PT 721 PathologyThis course is designed to acquaint the student to the basic principles in the study of disease. Included is an overview of pathological processes (cell injury, inflammation, neoplasia, etc.), followed by organ system pathology (cardiovascular, respiratory, nervous system, etc.), and multi-system pathology (nutritional, endocrine, wound healing, diabetes, trauma, etc.). A sign/symptom, pathogenesis, pathophysiological approach will be accentuated. Emphasis is also placed on diseases treated by the physical therapist. Pathology serves as an underpinning of mechanisms that lead to impairments, functional limitations and disabilities that are treated in the clinic. Credit(s): 3
