week 1 Patho/Pharm Flashcards
illness terminology
disease
illness
chronic (give an examples)
acute ( give an examples)
condition from a pathophysiological process that leads to a diagnosis
human experience of symptoms and suffering
> 3 months (ex: hypertension, high blood pressure, diabetes, myelitis) long term condition
rapid test, short duration ( ex: asthma attack, delirium, allergy, anaphylactic reaction)
this is the study and diagnosis of disease through examination of the organs, tissues, cells and bodily fluids
pathology
what is physiology?
the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of living organisms
together ____ are the study of abnormalities in the physiological functioning of living things
pathophysiology
what is etiology ?
the study of the causes or reasons for a disease
the study of the causes or reasons for a disease
etiology
give an example of what etiology could be?
examples: what is causing diabetes ,asthma
this is when the cause of disease is unknown
idiopathic
idiopathic is ….?
when the cause of disease is unknown
give examples of what idiopathic could be
cancer, dementia, hypertension ( we dont known the causes of it
auto immune disease (type 1 diabetes)
the cause of disease is a result of unintended or unwanted medical treatment
iatrogenic
what is iatrogenic ?
the cause of disease is a result of unintended or unwanted medical treatment
give examples of iatrogenic
the cause of this disease is I’m treating other disease such as cancer, arthritis , Cushing syndrome ( high level of steroids)
–> in other words high dose of steroids to tear underlying disease
this is the development or evolution of a disease from the initial stimulus to the ultimate expression of the manifestations of the disease
pathogenesis
describe what pathogenesis/ definition is
the development or evolution of a disease from the initial stimulus to the ultimate expression of the manifestations of the disease
this is how the disease progress/ the process ( how it multiplies in your body)
give an example
pathogenesis, an example would be type 2 diabetes
describe what clinical manifestations mean
manifestations of the disease that are observed (objective data and subjective feelings).
the disease are observed (objective and subjective feelings)
clinical manifestations
true or false.
Clinical Manifestations of a disease may change over time resulting in the clinical presentation of different stages
true
this is guided by etiology, pathogenesis, and clinical consequences of a particular disorder may suggest that certain treatments could be helpful.
treatment implications
treatment implications
guided by etiology, pathogenesis, clinical consequences of a particular disorder may suggest that certain treatments could be helpful.
the study of patterns of disease in human populations
epidemiology
what is epidemiology ?
the study of patterns of disease in human populations
give an example what epidemiology can demonstrate
ebola and how this virus coming into human population ?
covid could be another example, how is it spreading?
this question could be an example of what?
” why are we seeing so much diabetes in a certain area like norther manitoba?”
epidemiology
true or false.
Understanding the epidemiologic aspects of a disease if essential for effective prevention and treatment
true
age, ethnicity, gender, lifestyle, socioeconomic status and geographic location are ____ _____ that influence the occurence and transmission of disease
epidemiologic variables
Example questions
choose from epidemiology
risk factor
clinical manifestations
etiology
pathogenesis
- How does covid develop in a person?
2.tracking the causes of covid and how it spreads is an example of
3.what causes covid?
4.a covid positive patient is experiencing a loss of taste and smell which are examples
5.being obese is a probable for developing severe covid symptoms
1.pathogenesis
2.epidemiology
3.etiology
4.clinical manifestations
5.risk factor
objective observation is another word for what?
sign
what is an example of sign or objective observation?
example would be diaphoresis
techniques used to physically assess a patient
inspection, palpation, percussion, and auscultation (stethoscope)
inspection
palpation
percussion
auscultation (stethoscope) are techniques used to ?
physically assess a patient
this is a subjective feeling for example pain
this can be referred to as symptom
Pharmacology is what?
drug therapy
true or false these factors are important and relates to the class pathophysiology & pathology?
intellect
advocacy
empathy
communication
true
client safety include :
clinical environments
type of errors
levels of errors
culture of safety
what are the four types of errors
diagnostic errors
treatment errors
preventive errors
communication errors
this occur in performance of an operation, procedure or test in administering a treatment
treatment errors
occur in performance in the dose or method of administering a drug; or in avoidable delay in treatment or in responding to an abnormal test
treatment errors
what is treatment errors?
treatment errors occurs in the performance of an operation, procedure, a test, administering a test etc.
this occurs when there are failures to provide prophylactic treatment and inadequate monitoring or follow up treatment and inadequate monitoring or follow up of treatment
preventive errors
what is preventive errors?
this occurs when there are failures to provide prophylactic treatment and failure to monitor or follow up treatment
this is the result of delay in diagnosis, failure to employ indicated tests, tests or failure to act on results of monitoring or testing
diagnostic errors
what is diagnostic errors?
result of delay in diagnosis, failure to employ indicated tests, failure to act on results of monitoring or testing. failure IN GENERAL.
lack of communication or a lack of clarity in communication
communication errors
what is communication errors?
lack of communication or a lack of clarity in communication
what are the 3 types of errors?
three types of errors are adverse event, near miss, and sentinel event
error of omission.. did not provide care
near miss
error of commission… did not provide care correctly
adverse errors
patient injury or death due to an error
sentinel event
describe adverse
near miss
and sentinel event
error of commission did not provide care correctly
error of omission did not provide care
patient injury or death due to error
when the patient actually got the wrong medication (actually occured)
adverse event
what is error of commission
u actually did something wrong (gave the wrong medication)
what is error of omission
u failed to do the right thing
What is the difference between disease and illness?
patients suffer from illnesses, doctor diagnose and treat diseases
illness: experiences of discontinuities
disease: abnormalities of the functions or structures of body organs/systems
