BP203T:
Human Anatomy,
Physiology and Pathophysiology II (Theory)
COURSE OBJECTIVES
The objectives of
this course are to:
1. Understand the
anatomy and physiology of major body systems.
2. Learn mechanisms
of neurological, gastrointestinal, respiratory, renal, endocrine, and
reproductive functions.
3. Identify common
pathophysiological conditions affecting each organ system.
4. Correlate
structural and functional abnormalities with disease symptoms.
5. Equip students
with foundational knowledge for interpreting disease processes and planning
rational pharmacotherapy.
Course Outcomes
(CO):
Upon successful
completion of this course, the students will be able to:
1. Describe the
structural organization of the nervous, gastrointestinal, respiratory, urinary,
endocrine and reproductive systems.
2. Explain the
physiological mechanisms that regulate the functions of nervous, endocrine and
reproductive systems.
3. Illustrate the
etiology and development of common diseases affecting different organ systems
including cancer.
4. Analyze the
pathophysiological alterations associated with disorders of the nervous,
gastrointestinal, respiratory, renal and endocrine systems.
5. Interpret clinical
manifestations and case findings related to organ system dysfunctions.
Detailed Syllabus:
Unit I
Nervous System
a) Organization of
nervous system, neuron, neuroglia, classification and properties of nerve
fibre, electrophysiology, action potential, nerve impulse, receptors, synapse
and neurotransmitters.
Central nervous
system: Meninges, ventricles of brain and cerebrospinal fluid. Structure and
functions of brain (cerebrum, brain stem and cerebellum), spinal cord (gross
structure, functions of afferent and efferent nerve tracts, reflex activity).
b) Pathophysiology of
epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, migraine, depression, schizophrenia,
Alzheimer’s disease and meningitis.
Unit II
Gastrointestinal
System
a) Anatomy of GI
tract with special reference to anatomy and functions of stomach (acid
production in the stomach and its regulation through parasympathetic nervous
system; role of pepsin in protein digestion). Anatomy and functions of small
intestine and large intestine. Anatomy and functions of salivary glands,
pancreas and liver. Movements of GIT, digestion and absorption of nutrients.
b) Pathophysiology of
inflammatory bowel diseases, peptic ulcer, jaundice, hepatitis, typhoid and
alcoholic and non alcoholic fatty liver disease
Unit III
a) Respiratory
System
Anatomy of
respiratory system with special reference to anatomy of lungs. Mechanism of
respiration and regulation of respiration. Lung volumes and capacities,
transport of respiratory gases, artificial respiration and resuscitation
methods.
b) Pathophysiology of
asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases and tuberculosis.
c) Urinary System
Anatomy of urinary
tract with special reference to anatomy of kidney and nephrons. Functions of
kidney and urinary tract. Physiology of urine formation, micturition reflex and
role of kidneys in acid–base balance.
Role of Renin
Angitensin Aldosterone System in kidney.
d) Pathophysiology of
acute and chronic renal failure and urinary tract infections.
Unit IV
Endocrine System
a) Classification of
hormones and mechanism of hormone action. Structure and functions of pituitary
gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, adrenal gland, pancreas, pineal gland
and thymus.
b) Pathophysiology of
diabetes, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, goiter and polycystic ovary
syndrome.
Unit V
Reproductive System
and Cancer
a) Anatomy of male
and female reproductive system. Functions of male and female reproductive
system, sex hormones, physiology of menstruation, fertilization,
spermatogenesis, oogenesis, pregnancy and parturition.
b) Pathophysiology of
sexually transmitted diseases: AIDS, syphilis and gonorrhea.
c) Etiology and
pathogenesis of cancer.
