    5.00 Credits
    West Liberty University

    The first course in a two-part series devoted to the study of human anatomy and physiology. It is designed to provide students with essential knowledge of the major anatomical regions, structures of the human body, important physiologic functions, and mechanisms for maintaining homeostasis within it. Concepts of development, metabolism, fluid and electrolyte balance, and acid-base balance are included. It uses a system and an intersystem approach, with correlation to disease processes. The course covers topography, internal structures, and functions with correlations to diagnostic modalities currently used by practitioners to establish correct diagnoses and appropriate therapies. Case studies wll illustrate the anatomical findings in the classical clinical presentations of the most common chief complaints. Topics covered include the head and neck, the skin, the cardiovascular system, the respiratory system, the gastrointestinal & hepaic systems, male genitourinary and female genitourinary.
