This course will present common and uncommon disease processes encountered in the anesthetic settings across the lifespan. The participant will gain a better understanding of the general concepts of the disease, including etiology, pathogenesis, treatment strategies and anesthetic implications. These concepts are applied in a systems-oriented approach to disease processes affecting musculoskeletal, cardiopulmonary, renal, nervous, gastrointestinal, immune, hematological and endocrine systems. By the end of the course, students should be able to understand the relation between the symptoms and disease process.
