CSPM 219 - Physiology


Semester Hours: 4
Physiology is the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of living organisms.  This course seeks to illustrate both the body’s cellular functions and the integration of the organ systems to achieve and maintain homeostasis. It is achieved through communication, which occurs in various ways, both electrically and chemically. A thorough understanding of this basic science is necessary for the subsequent study of pathology and managed care. This course is designed to provide a comprehensive and fundamental understanding of such by correlating didactic information and clinical cases, which will promote critical thinking and prepare students for medical conditions encountered in a clinical setting. All lectures will be conducted in the traditional didactic format. The information is cumulative, and therefore it is critical to keep up with the reading material.  Questions during and after lectures are encouraged, as it is intended to make lectures as interactive as possible.
