Preface

This textbook provides an introduction to pathophysiology for students in a variety of academic programs for the health professions at colleges and universities. Major disorders are described, as well as selected additional diseases, with the intention of providing information on a broad spectrum of diseases, with one or more distinguishing features for each. It is anticipated that additional information and resources pertinent to the individuals professional needs may be added to classroom presentations and assignments. We trust that students will enjoy studying these topics and proceed with enthusiasm to more detailed studies within their individual specialties.

Organization

The textbook is organized into five major sections, followed by the appendices.

Section IBasic Concepts of Disease Processes
  • An introduction to pathophysiology, including medical terminology and basic cellular changes, is provided.
  • Topics such as fluid, electrolyte, and acidbase imbalances, basic pharmacology, and pain are covered.
  • The core information for each topic is complemented by the inclusion of a specific disease/condition as an immediate clinical application at the end of each chapter.
Section IIDefense/Protective Mechanisms
  • Topics such as inflammation and healing, infection, and immunity are covered.
  • Specific areas included are a review of body defenses, healing involved in specific trauma such as burns, basic microbiology, review of the immune system components, and mechanisms.
Section IIIPathophysiology of Body Systems
  • Selection of specific disorders is based on incidence and occurrence, as well as on the need to present a variety of pathophysiological processes and etiologies to the student.
  • For major disorders, information is provided on pathophysiology, etiology, clinical manifestations, significant diagnostic tests, common treatment modalities, and potential complications.
  • Other selected diseases are presented in less detail, but significant, unique features are highlighted.
Section IVFactors Contributing to Pathophysiology
  • Normal physiological changes related to cancer, adolescence, pregnancy, and aging, with their relevance and effect on disease processes and the treatment of the affected individual, are described.
  • Specific disorders associated with cancer and the developmental stages are discussed.
Section VEnvironmental Factors and Pathophysiology
  • Factors such as immobility, stress, substance abuse, and environmental hazards are the major components in this section.
