Presentation Transcript

  1. Anatomy and Physiology How the body interacts is the study of Anatomy and Physiology…

  2. WHY? • Anatomy – WHAT is there… the parts. • Physiology – HOW the parts work. • Put it together… and we have a body. Something stops working somewhere and you have disease. • Any number of “somethings” can cause the same symptoms

  3. Causing Disease… Like our Patient. All of our body systems interact chemically, electrically and physically. A “kink” in the chain throws the system off. That “kink” can be small, even one gene that doesn’t produce the right enzyme can do it.

  4. The point? • All body systems interact • Therefore, any change in any system can cause a problem. • We study Anatomy and Physiology so we know our baseline – our “normal”.

  5. The Point! By knowing our “norm” we can determine what is “different”. Once we know what is different we can try to treat the problem. A diagnosis DOES NOT give you a treatment.

  6. Treating Disease Diagnosing only tells us what is going on with the person, not how to “fix” the problem. In order to “fix” you need to know how the systems work so you can figure out what needs repair… • Treatment is the repair you do to the system • Sometimes it is a permanent repair, a Cure. • Sometimes it is an ongoing “patch job”, treatment

  7. Treating Disease Cure or Patch job… if you don’t know what the end product should be… you can’t fix it!
