Description
This course builds upon the biophysical concepts exemplified through previous pathophysiology and pharmacotherapy courses. Students examine increasingly complex pathophysiological processes occurring across the lifespan and explore the interrelatedness of the pathophysiologic process to the body?s function as a whole. Critical pharmacotherapies utilized to affect positive change in the identified pathophysiological processes are investigated from a nursing perspective.
