ME565 Clinical Medicine IV
This course is the final in a series of four courses designed to introduce students to the broad scope of clinical medicine through an organ systems-based approach. The Clinical Medicine IV course will specifically cover diseases found in the renal and genitourinary organ systems, as well as drugs used in women’s health, pediatrics, geriatrics, hematology, and rheumatology. During this course, for each disease/disorder covered, the student will be given the opportunity to: 1) identify pathophysiological processes; 2) understand biological processes and genetics in relation to pathologic disease; 3) recognize common and atypical presentations of disease; 4) develop a high quality list of differential diagnoses; 5) design an appropriate diagnostic approach; 6) interpret common radiological and laboratory studies needed for evaluation; 7) construct an appropriate treatment plan; and 8) recognize the impact of consulting other healthcare professionals in a patient’s management as clinically indicated.
