OverviewUsing more than 80 brief, straightforward case studies that represent key body systems, Physiology Case Studies in Pharmacy helps students of pharmacy and other health professions apply basic physiological principles. Each case includes a set of questions to pave the way for learning and review. This book fills an important niche in demonstrating the integrative role of physiology, pathophysiology, and pharmacy in patient care. Although these case studies are examples, not true life, they capture the real world that practicing pharmacists and other health care professionals work in every day. KEY FEATURES: Designed as a supplemental text for courses in physiology and pathophysiology, with 82 concise cases in cellular physiology; nerve cell function; the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, pain, and autonomic nervous system; the endocrine system; muscle physiology; and the cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, renal, and immune systems.
