Course Descriptions

PHA370
Clinical Decision Making
Clinical decisions will be taught in a controlled laboratory environment. Principles and guidelines for organizing and developing a structured approach to thinking about patient care are addressed during lectures, with lab sessions devoted to the practice of these skills in simulated patient scenarios. X-ray, CT/MRI, laboratory reports, EKG's, and other data are incorporated into the course in a computer format, whenever possible, to create the most realistic approach. The scenarios are complete and require thorough decision making at all levels, from patient presentation to treatment or referral. New medical evidence will be researched by literature searches and presented as it applies to the scenarios discussed. 3 Credits (1 Lecture - 6 Lab) Prerequisite(s): PHA346 and PHA366.
