Pathophysiology

• ApresentaçãoPresentation

  Pathophysiology studies disordered or altered functions - the physiological mechanisms altered by disease in the living organism. This area of biomedical science allows: Identify the etiology of the disease and explain how it develops. Identify the mechanisms responsible for the onset, progression and recovery of the disease. Identify the mechanisms responsible for the development of symptoms and signs of the disease. By understanding the causes and mechanisms of the disease, it will be possible to influence the course of disease evolution rationally.

• ObjectivosObjectives

  To understand the processes basic and general pathophysiology, integrating and interrelationship-them. Acquired scientific knowledge, with nomenclature correctly and appropriate. Understand the theoretical sequence of the etiology, pathogenesis and clinic, as well as the inverse practice from clinical cases to the etiology. Develop critical thinking skills, apply the interpretation of pathophysiological mechanisms, using the method of learning by problems and the construction and analysis of conceptual maps. To know the concepts of natural history of the disease and differential diagnosis. To integrate and apply the knowledge of the pathophysiology in other curricular units such as clinical and laboratory semiotics and supplementary diagnostic tests.

• MetodologiaMethodology

  In this curricular unit, the Team-based learning (TBL) methodology is used, with tasks carried out in small groups, allowing the development of the ability to analyze and apply theoretical concepts.
