This second course in the series on advanced anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology builds on the knowledge gained from the General Principles of Anesthesia and prior physiology and pathophysiology courses. Systems presented in this course include but are not limited to Hepatic, Renal, and Immune. The focus of this course is to review advanced physiology and pathophysiology which are elemental to the safe practice of anesthesia as related to culture, gender, race, age, and genetics. It will provide the nurse anesthesia student with extensive knowledge of normal physiology and how it impacts the individualized plan of care. The anesthetic implications of various comorbidities and common pathological conditions are explored in depth. Prerequisite: DNPA-780
