Description:
The study of anatomy and physiology provides a basis for clinical implementation. This knowledge has many applications in the clinical setting and supports patient examination, diagnostic testing, formation of a diagnosis, and patient communication. The discussion boards for this course will explore the clinical application of anatomy and physiology as it relates to the understanding of acute injuries and diseases that impact each body system.
Instructions:
Step 1: Respond to both of the following:
Part A: Choose a disease or condition that impacts the Cardiovascular and/or Respiratory System. Using an outside source, write a four to six sentence summary of the condition you chose.

Part B: Write a four to six sentence evaluation of the condition you chose and how it relates to your review of the assigned Visible Body activities. The assigned Visible Body activities can be found by selecting the “Visible Body Courseware” tab on the left side of the course homepage. What did you find interesting about the condition you chose? Which specific assigned Visible Body activities for this module were most relevant to the condition you chose, and how did they help you better understand it?
