NSG 3280 Pathophysiology – EXAM 1
Unit 1
Unit Student Learning Outcomes (USLOs):
1. Apply knowledge related to cellular regulation concepts of disease progression. (CSLO 1)
2. Examine simple to complex concepts of cellular regulation related to pathophysiological disease progression.
(CSLO 2)
3. Evaluate current evidence related to pathophysiological concepts of cellular regulation. (CSLO 3)
4. Integrate clinical inferences related to pathophysiological simple to complex concepts of cellular regulation
disease progression. (CSLO 4)
What is Pathophysiology?
Pathophysiology refers to the study of abnormalities in the physiologic functioning of living beings. (aka study
of disease)
Chapter 1: Introduction to Pathophysiology Concepts
Framework for Pathophysiology
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
An understanding of the etiology, pathogenesis, and clinical manifestations of a particular disorder leads to a
diagnosis, which suggests that certain treatments may be helpful.
o Based on common or “classic” presentation of disease in the physiologic functioning of human
beings
o Interrelated topics in pathophysiology
Etiology
Pathogenesis
Clinical manifestations
Diagnosis and Treatment implications
Etiology
o Study of causes or reasons for a phenomena o Identifies causal factors that, acting in concert,
provoke a particular disease or injury.
o Classifications
Idiopathic:
• The cause is unknown.
Iatrogenic:
• Cause results from unintended or unwanted medical treatment o Side
and adverse effects
o Risk factor(s)
A factor that when present, increases the likelihood of disease.
DOES NOT guarantee the individual will get the specific disease.
