NURS 367 - Pathophysiology and Clinical Reasoning for Nursing

Credit(s): 3
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 130 /BIOL 130A , BIOL 265 /BIOL 265A .
Basic principles and processes are introduced early in the course, including descriptions of cellular biology; genes and genetic diseases; forms of cell injuries; fluids and electrolytes and acids and bases; immunity; and tumor biology. Knowledge of these processes is applied to the pathophysiology of common diseases. The presentation of each disease/disorder entity includes relevant risk factors, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations and a brief review of treatment. Clinical reasoning will be augmented by applying models for nursing clinical judgment to clinical case studies.
