Developed for students in the health professions Pathophysiology Online for Gould’s Pathophysiology for the Health Professions, 6th Edition presents disease processes and disorders in a clear and visual way. Modules correspond to material in the main text, and animations, slide shows, and other interactive resources enhance understanding of pathophysiology for any learning style. A case-based approach presents information in small "chunks" for easier comprehension and helps you apply concepts. Within each module, a set of lessons lets you study and review pathophysiology — with exercises to allow self-assessment.

Newer Edition Available

    • Clinical Correlation case studies lets you apply pathophysiology to the real world, with each case including a patient with a pathology pertaining to a specific body system, along with an electronic health record and self-assessment questions.
    • Self-assessment activities promote learning with Self-Check activities such as image association, drag-and-drop, matching, multiple choice, and flash card activities, and Think About short-answer exercises — all with immediate feedback and source references.
    • Animations, slide shows, and audio narration demonstrate the more difficult disease and health processes, showing how, why, when, and the order in which abnormal physiologic processes take place.
    • Student-friendly learning tools in each module include a lesson overview with learning objectives, glossary terms, and a module summary.
    • Audio glossary offers quick, easy access to new and unfamiliar terms — some with illustrations — along with pronunciations and definitions.
