Reinforce your understanding of pathophysiology with this dynamic, easy-to-use online course! With modules corresponding to the chapters in Gould's Pathophysiology for the Health Professions, 7th Edition, Pathophysiology Online provides narrated animations, slide shows, and interactive exercises to help you master concepts relating to disorders and disease processes. It presents information in small "chunks" for easier comprehension, using a case-based approach to encourage critical thinking and help you apply pathophysiology concepts to real-world practice. Ideal for visual learning styles, this online course makes it easy to review and master the fundamentals of pathophysiology.

    • 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.
    • Clinical Correlation case studies apply pathophysiology to the real world, with each case featuring 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, plus Think About short-answer exercises — all with immediate feedback and source references.
    • Learning features in each module include a lesson overview with learning objectives, glossary terms, and a module summary.
    • Audio glossary offers quick, easy access to pronunciations and definitions for new and unfamiliar terms, with some including illustrations.
    • NEW! Updated content reflects the revisions in Gould’s Pathophysiology for the Health Professions, 7th Edition textbook.
    • NEW! The Bigger Picture bulleted summaries identify other body systems that might be affected by a disease or disorder found in a specific body system.
    • NEW coverage of COVID-19 is added, as well as new information on other conditions and diseases.
    • NEW diagnostic methods and treatments are covered, showing how these are impacted by digitalization, information technology, and artificial intelligence.
    • NEW! Updated statistics on diseases and their related pathophysiology are included in the modules.
    • NEW photographs and illustrations are added.
