associate's degree in physiology: Advanced Physiology and Pathophysiology Nancy Tkacs, PhD, RN, Linda Herrmann, PhD, RN, ACHPN, AGACNP-BC, GNP-BC, FAANP, Randall Johnson, PhD, RN, 2020-03-26 Note to Readers: Publisher does not guarantee quality or access to any included digital components if book is purchased through a third-party seller. Specifically designed for future healthcare providers who will diagnose, manage, and prescribe This advanced physiology and pathophysiology text is designed to address the specific learning needs of future nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other advanced healthcare providers caring for patients across the lifespan. Focusing on practical applications of physiology, it facilitates in-depth understanding of important pathophysiological concepts as they relate to major disorders commonly seen in clinical practice and includes comprehensive pediatric and geriatric considerations. This knowledge is crucial to providing the foundation required to be an informed and confident clinical decision maker. The author team includes experienced clinicians and educators: nurses and nurse practitioners, physician assistants, doctors of pharmacy, physicians, and basic scientists. This collaboration has produced a text that carefully details and richly illustrates the cellular structure and function of each organ system and mechanisms of associated major clinical disorders. Uniquely interweaving aspects of organ function during healthy states with disease-associated changes, the text emphasizes and extends the basic science foundation to practical clinical applications. The text promotes a deep understanding of cellular function in health and disease that provides the bedrock knowledge required to master pharmacology for prescriptive practice. Equally important, the solid foundation of applied pathophysiological mechanisms offered in this text prepares the student clinician to care for patients with a broad variety of disorders. This resource not only provides a deep dive into pathophysiology, but it also examines why patients often present with particular symptoms, the rationale for ordering specific diagnostic tests and interpretation of results, and common management strategies that proceed from the underlying pathophysiology. Key Features: Designed explicitly to build a foundation for pharmacology and clinical courses that lead to successful clinical practice and prescribing Includes comprehensive lifespan considerations with key insights from specialists in pediatric and geriatric pathophysiology Provides a complete chapter on the basic principles of genetics and genomics with coverage of genetic variations, assessment, and genomics woven throughout the book Integrates thought questions and case studies to promote discussion and synthesis of information Offers a unique Bridge to Clinical Practice in each chapter to translate science to patient care Includes more than 500 images to illustrate complex scientific concepts Summarizes the contents succinctly with handy key points at the end of each chapter Provides access to the fully searchable ebook, including student ancillaries on Springer Publishing ConnectTM |

associate's degree in physiology: Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology Kenneth S. Saladin, Robin McFarland, Christina A. Gan, 2021-03 Audience Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology, third edition, is intended for students in associate degree, certification, and careertraining programs; students in high-school advanced placement classes; students who are seeking a general education science class; and those who may not have set foot in a college classroom for many years. The prose and vocabulary in Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology are appropriate to serve this broad spectrum of readers. Keeping in mind that many students are interested in exploring medical professions, a Career Spotlight feature has been included in every chapter, and references to further career information are found in appendix B. Theme The goal of this book is to help students succeed. Like climbing a mountain, learning essentials of anatomy and physiology takes place one step at a time, and, similar to the feeling of exhilaration when one has arrived at a mountain peak, there is a powerful sense of achievement upon mastering the knowledge of anatomy and physiology. The mountain-climbing theme is echoed in visual and pedagogical features of the book. A base camp on the first page of each chapter lists key information students need to understand in preparation for navigating the chapter. Throughout the chapter, there are milestones that mark progress, such as the Before You Go On checkpoints with an image of a climber steadily moving upward. The study guide at the end of each chapter features a victorious climber on the summit, a celebration that mirrors the student's mastery of the chapter information. What's New in the Third Edition? The new edition of Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology by Saladin and McFarland has been significantly updated. A hallmark of previous editions, according to both students and reviewers, is the exceptionally clear writing. In this new edition, we continue our commitment to students, with approachable language and relatable examples and analogies. We present current, solid scientific information. We have included numerous updates based on recent, peer-reviewed journal articles, as well as updated clinical examples and disease statistics. We have expanded discussions of health and disease to help students apply concepts of anatomy and physiology to their daily lives-- |

associate's degree in physiology: Anatomy & Physiology Michael P. McKinley, Valerie Dean O'Loughlin, Theresa Stouter Bidle, 2021 Human anatomy and physiology is a fascinating subject. However, students can be overwhelmed by the complexity, the interrelatedness of concepts from different chapters, and the massive amount of material in the course. Our goal was to create a textbook to guide students on a clearly written and expertly illustrated beginner's path through the human body. An Integrative Approach One of the most daunting challenges that students face in mastering concepts in an anatomy and physiology course is integrating related content from numerous chapters. Understanding a topic like blood pressure, for example, requires knowledge from the chapters on the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and how these structures are regulated by the nervous and endocrine systems. The usefulness of a human anatomy and physiology text is dependent in part on how successfully it helps students integrate these related concepts. Without this, students are only acquiring what seems like unrelated facts without seeing how they fit into the whole. To adequately explain such complex concepts to beginning students in our own classrooms, we as teachers present multiple topics over the course of many class periods, all the while balancing these detailed explanations with refreshers of content previously covered and intermittent glimpses of the big picture. Doing so ensures that students learn not only the individual pieces, but also how the pieces ultimately fit together. This book represents our best effort to replicate this teaching process. In fact, it is the effective integration of concepts throughout the text that makes this book truly unique from other undergraduate anatomy and physiology texts-- |
