Exam coverage for WGU D236 Objective Assessment Pathophysiology
Exam includes foundational and systems-based disease processes
that explain how normal physiology is altered in illness. It focuses on
cellular injury, inflammation, infection, immune responses, fluid and
electrolyte imbalances, and genetic and environmental influences on
disease. The exam also evaluates understanding of pathophysiological
mechanisms affecting major body systems, including cardiovascular,
respiratory, neurological, endocrine, renal, gastrointestinal, and
musculoskeletal systems.
Emphasis is placed on applying disease mechanisms to clinical
scenarios, understanding progression of illness, recognizing signs and
,symptoms, and connecting pathophysiology concepts to nursing
assessment and patient care decisions. 🩺📘
