Dumke College of Health Professions HTHS 1111 - Integrated Human Anatomy and Physiology II Credits: (4) Typically taught: Fall [Full Sem, Online] Spring [Full Sem, Online] Summer [Full Sem, Online] Integrated Human Anatomy and Physiology II is the second semester of a two-semester anatomy and physiology sequence focusing on the structure and function of the human body. Course module topics include: the nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular (blood), cardiovascular (heart and blood vessels), respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive body systems. Laboratory sessions serve to enhance the lectures through discussions, data analysis, hands-on activities, and activities utilizing cadaver specimens and interactive digital cadaver technology. Prerequisite: HTHS 1110 with a grade of C or better. HTHS 1120 - Case Studies in Health Sciences Credits: (3) Typically taught: Fall [Full Sem, Online] Spring [Full Sem, Online] Summer [Online] Case Studies in Health Sciences is a course designed for students wishing to explore the interdisciplinary nature of health care using case study models. Each case study focuses on a disease process. Progression through each case study involves a review of anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, medical terminology and a study of health professionals including their educational and training requirements. Additionally, the student will explore key medical diagnostic tests (e.g. laboratory, imaging) used in patient disease diagnosis, management and prevention. The course emphasizes the importance of the team approach to patient care. Prerequisite: HTHS 1101, HTHS 1105 and HTHS 1106 or HTHS 1110 and HTHS 1111 or an equivalent course in anatomy and physiology. HTHS 1130 - Common Medicines Credits: (3) Typically taught: (offered only as needed) This is an introductory course and will provide information regarding proper drug usage for persons without significant backgrounds in the Biological Sciences. The course primarily discusses over-the-counter medicines as well as prescription drug groups which are commonly used by the public. The overall objective will be to provide information in such a way that individuals are more aware of possible drug-related problems, able to make wise and appropriate choices, and become well-informed consumers. May be repeated twice with a maximum of 6 credit hours. HTHS 2230 - Introductory Pathophysiology Credits: (3) Typically taught: Fall [Full Sem, Online] Spring [Full Sem, Online] Summer [Full Sem, Online] An introduction to the pathophysiologic disruptions of normal human body function. This course will emphasize disease mechanisms and the body's response to restore homeostasis. Units of study include foundational concepts of cellular injury, genetics, acid-base, electrolyte, and fluid balance and functional alterations of the immune, hematologic, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, respiratory, urinary, musculoskeletal, and reproductive systems. Prerequisite: Completion of HTHS 1110 and HTHS 1111, or HTHS 1105 and HTHS 1106, or ZOOL 2200, or an equivalent human physiology course with a grade of C or better. Concurrent enrollment in HTHS 2231 is recommended. HTHS 2231 - Introductory Pathophysiology Laboratory Credits: (l) Typically taught: Fall [Full Sem, Online] Spring [Full Sem, Online] Summer [Full Sem, Online] Laboratory and computer exercises involving analysis of both clinical and laboratory data. Students evaluate signs, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of various pathological conditions and diseases. One two-hour laboratory per week. Co-Requisite: HTHS 2230. HTHS 2240 - Introduction to Pharmacology Credits: (3) Typically taught: Fall [Full Sem, Online] Spring [Full Sem, Online] Summer [Online] Introductory pharmacology course which covers pharmacological principles including modes of action, uses, modes of excretion, and patient side effects of various drug classes. The drugs are presented in a "system approach" with emphasis on medications utilized in diagnosing and treating diseases associated with the various body systems. Class format includes a 3 hour lecture class with students participating in oral presentations and case studies. Prerequisite: (Recommended) HTHS 1101, HTHS 1110 and HTHS 1111. HTHS 2830 - Health Sciences Directed Readings Credits: (1-3) Typically taught: Fall [Full Sem] Spring [Full Sem] Directed Readings in Health Sciences areas. Must have departmental approval.
