Pathophysiology is the study of causes of diseases and reactions of the body to such disease producing causes.
This course is designed to impart a thorough knowledge of the relevant aspects of pathology of various conditions with reference to its pharmacological applications, and understanding of basic pathophysiological mechanisms.
Expected outcomes
1. Describe the etiology and pathogenesis of the selected disease states
2. Name the signs and symptoms of the diseases
3. Mention the complications of the diseases.
