SHC152 Pathophysiology for Healthcare Science

This is an introductory module to the structure and function of the human body and how it is affected by disease, delivered with a focus on healthcare science.
SHCM00 Clinical Assessment for Healthcare Scientists

This module will give practitioners the opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding which underpins the use of clinical assessment in the context of differential diagnosis. Practitioners will be expected to apply knowledge and basic skills of clinical assessment to their individual scope of practice within a cardiology, respiratory physiology or sleep-disordered breathing clinic. The opportunity to gain a greater understanding of the role of other diagnostic modalities such as radiology and pathology are integral to the module.
SHHM49S Clinical Assessment Skills

This module builds upon students existing knowledge as registered health care practitioners and provides a systematic and comprehensive education in holistic clinical assessment and clinical reasoning. This is underpinned by a sound knowledge of anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology. Emphasis is placed upon the integration of knowledge, clinical methods and consultation skills into a competent consultation enabling the student to draw accurate clinical conclusions, which they can justify from a pathophysiological and psychosocial perspective
SHHM59S Clinical Diagnosis and Patient Management for Advanced Practice

This module builds upon the skills of clinical consultation, assessment and reasoning acquired in the SHHM49 Clinical Assessment Skills module. During this module students will be introduced to the diagnostic consultation as well as clinical decision making skills. The module adopts a case based approach; students will be introduced to a weekly clinical case that is critically reviewed from the diagnostic assessment all the way through to the therapeutic management. The student will learn to adapt the consultation to include any scenario, preparing for advanced practice in their clinical settings. Emphasis will be upon reasoned differential diagnoses and the bio-clinical reasoning underlying the management of a holistic consultation.
SHP354 Systems Physiology and Common Pathologies

This module builds on the students¿ knowledge and understanding of human physiological processes which are fundamental to health and wellbeing. Students should extend their comprehension of systems failure and the adverse effect this has on maintenance of health. Students should have a basic understanding of human anatomy and physiology.
