Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology: is a medical discipline that focuses on the function and symptoms of diseased organs, generally for purposes of diagnosis and patient care. Pathophysiology differs slightly from pathology, which studies all aspects of disease, not just organic function. Taking a pathophysiology course is an important part of receiving a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), as it is imperative for RNs who want to be successful on a clinical team.
