All Chapters with Answers and Rationals
What is Pathophysiology - ANSWER: Study of the Physical & Biological abnormalities occurring with in
the body as a result of the disease
Physiology is the study of - ANSWER: how the body functions
Pathology - ANSWER: the science of the causes and effects of diseases, especially the branch of
medicine that deals with the laboratory examination of samples of body tissue for diagnostic or
forensic purposes.
8 Determining Factors of Disease - ANSWER: - Genetics
-Age
- Gender
- Culture
- Ethnicity
- Individual Perception
- Group Perception - Gov't Perceptions
Diseases - ANSWER: Acute chronic illnesses that one acquires or is born with, that causes physiologic
dysfunction in one or more body systems.
Homeostasis - ANSWER: **STABILITY**process by which organisms maintain a relatively stable
internal environment
Ex: the concentration of various ions in your blood must be kept steady, along with pH and the
concentration of glucose
Etiology - ANSWER: cause of disease
_______is closely related to the questions of WHY a certain disease or disorder develops. - ANSWER:
Etiology
4 Etiological Factors - ANSWER: - Biologic agents
- Physical Forces
-Chemical agents
-Nutritional Excess Deficits
Pathogenesis - ANSWER: development of disease
__________ Is closely related to the questions of HOW a certain disease or disorder is developed. -
ANSWER: Pathogenesis
The model of ______ accounts for the processes that MAINTAIN a certain disease or disorder. -
ANSWER: Pathogenesis
4 Pathogenic Mechanisms of Viral Disease - ANSWER: 1- Implantation of virus at the portal of entry
2- Local Replication
3- Spread to Target organs
4- Spread to sites of shedding of virus into environment
, The model of ______ accounts for the processes that INITIATES a certain disease or disorder. -
ANSWER: Etiology
Signs (Objective) - ANSWER: A MANIFESTATION that is noted by an observer
(Think: 'Observer' = 'Objective')
Symptoms (Subjective) - ANSWER: Subjective complaint by the person w/ a disorder
World Health Organization (1948): Definition of 'Health'
[ Millenial state of mind] - ANSWER: Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-
being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity.
World Health Assembly (1977): Definition of 'Health'
[ Traditional state of mind] - ANSWER: All citizens of the world reach a level of health by the year 2000
that allows them to live a socially and economically productive life.
Healthy People 2010: Definition of 'Health'
[Political State Mind] - ANSWER: Health is an interaction between an individual's biology and
behavior, physical and social environments, government policies and interventions, and access to
quality health care.
The mechanism of high blood pressure is an example of __________.
A. Physiology
B. Pathology
C. Pathophysiology - ANSWER: C. Pathophysiology
Rationale: Pathophysiology is the Mechanistic study of disease
Aspects of the Disease Process - ANSWER: -The Etiology ( onset)
-Pathogenesis ( How Disease evolves)
-Morphologic changes ( How disease changes; Mutations of disease)
-Clinical manifestations ( How disease presents as a clinical manifestation)
-Diagnosis ( Designation of a health problem)
-Clinical course (Chronic; Acute;Subacute)
What are the two major aspects of Pathogenesis, that are paramount in the prevention and
management of the treatment of various diseases? - ANSWER: Disease etiology and Disease
progression
Syndrome - ANSWER: A complication of signs and symptoms
Ex: I.B.S
5 Factors that Affect Adaptation to Stressors - ANSWER: - Age
- Health Status
-Psychosocial resources
-The rapidity with which the need to adapt occurs
