This pharmacology assignment seeks to answer two question from a given scenario (appendix I), therefore, it would be divided into “Part A” and “Part B”. To achieve this, “Part A” will discuss the relevant patho-physiology of an acute asthma exacerbation and “Part B” will discuss the relevant pharmacology and management issues of 3 drugs that were used in the treatment of Cora (Psuedonym, NMC 2015), including their pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. The role of the nurse in care of the asthmatic

Gastrointestinal Physiology Horses are monogstric animals with a relatively small stomach. From the horse’s mouth to their large intestine, their gastrointestinal tract is similar to that of a human’s. However, past the cecum, a horse’s gastrointestinal tract has more similarities to that of a cow’s (Bentz, 2014). Horses are classified as hindgut fermenters, meaning a balance of good and bad bacteria aid in the digestion of foodstuff in the cecum and large intestine (Costa et al., 2012). The hindgut

How does the knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the uterus inform midwifery practice in the postnatal period? The researcher seeks to inform the reader information based on the anatomy and physiology of the uterus and how it informs midwifery practice during the postnatal period, whilst providing an outline of other structures of the female reproductive system and their functions. The essay will also provide information and knowledge relating to Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) Royal

“Cerebral physiology” was a euphemism for phrenology, a now-discredited pseudo-science. But make no mistake: in its day, phrenology was on the cutting edge of brain science. First, different areas of the brain were associated with different mental capacities or faculties. And, as the brain developed, it shaped the skull. For Lombroso, the criminal was the product of a vitiated nervous system. Both the brains and skulls of criminals demonstrated evidence of atavism; in other words, criminals were

Toxoplasma gondii, Joan Ng Kiat Yee: BM304 revision guide 2015 The physiology, metabolism, biochemistry Toxoplsama gondii is an intracellular apicomplexan parasite that forms cyst coccidian in warm-blooded animals, primarily in the Felida – domestic cats (Shannon et al., 2015). The organism also causes a wide range of diseases in different intermediate hosts, ranging from animals, such as mammals and birds to human (Astrid et al., 2000). In human, this parasite poses serious threat by causing a

The aim of this report is to provide an overview of chronic heart failure, examining signs symptoms and treatment related to the case study, medical history. The anatomy and physiology of the heart will be discussed, and the pathophysiology of chronic heart failure. Heart failure is a general term used to describe several types of cardiac dysfunction that result in inadequate perfusion of tissue with vital blood-borne nutrients. Most causes of heart failure result from dysfunction of the left ventricle

interest in science based subjects, specifically Physiology. Studying the subject as part of my Health Studies course has made me comprehend that the life of Science is what I want to be a part of. My interests in the natural world and the study of science have motivated me to take it to a sophisticated level and further my understanding. Studying Science at college has given me a good foundation of skills and knowledge which I will bring to studying Physiology in University. I believe that the course will

veins and arteries known as the circulatory system. During the pumping action it carries deoxygenated blood through the veins to the lungs where oxygenation takes place and is then circulated through the arteries back to the heart. Anatomy and Physiology of the Heart The heart is located in the thoracic cavity of the chest in the middle of the lungs and beneath the sternum. At the base, or top of the heart, is the aorta, pulmonary arteries, and superior vena cava. It forms a tip called the apex
