Objectives

Upon completion of this problem, students should be able to explain fluid homeostasis in the human body and apply this to clinical problems, specifically how it is disrupted in nephrotic syndrome.
Global Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Upon completion of this problem, students should be able to explain how the renin angiotensin aldosterone system impacts blood pressure homeostasis and apply these principles to the development, manifestations, and treatment of acute hypertension in a young person.
Global Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Upon completion of this problem, students should be able to explain and apply the mechanisms which regulate blood pressure homeostasis as well as the pathophysiology and approach to essential hypertension.
Global Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Upon completion of this problem, students should be able to explain metabolic acid base equilibrium and be able to recognize the mechanisms leading to metabolic acid-base disorders.
Global Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Upon completion of this problem, students will expand on the material learned in the previous case to be able to use laboratory values to calculate patients’ compensatory responses to metabolic acid-base disorders.
Global Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Describe the determinants of intracellular fluid (ICF) and extracellular fluid (ECF) volume.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Understand how the kidney conserves sodium appropriately during hypovolemic states, and inappropriately in the setting of congestive heart failure.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Illustrate the mechanisms by which the kidney may excrete a dilute versus concentrated urine.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Describe the relationship between total body water and the serum sodium concentration.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Explain the mechanisms responsible for maintaining blood pressure in the normal range.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Explain the pathological consequences of hypertension on the brain, heart and kidneys.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Explain the mechanisms responsible for essential and secondary hypertension.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Explain the mechanisms responsible for elevation of blood pressure in the setting of renal artery stenosis.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Explain the mechanisms of action by which diuretics, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, and calcium channel blockers reduce elevated blood pressure.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Describe how parathyroid hormone and vitamin D act on the gastrointestinal system, bone, and kidney to regulate serum calcium and phosphate balance.
General Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Upon completion of this problem, students will be able to describe the role of the kidney in electrolyte homeostasis and develop an approach to electrolyte abnormalities.
Global Objectives

Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal

Describe the steps of digestion and absorption and roles of the key organs of the alimentary tract in these processes.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Gastroenterology and Nutrition

The Gastroenterology concepts include the physiology and pathophysiology of digestion, absorption and metabolism of macronutrients and micronutrients, the structure and function of the hepatobiliary system, gastrointestinal tract integrity and gastrointestinal autoimmunity. Additionally, these concepts provide an introduction to understanding the common disorders of the gastrointestinal tract and the hepatobiliary system. During this Foundation you will develop an understanding of the important elements of the structure and functional relationships in the gastrointestinal tract. By the end of the Foundation, you should have an understanding of the significance of the cardinal manifestations of gastrointestinal disorders.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Gastroenterology and Nutrition

Homeostasis is the steady-state internal metabolic equilibrium the body requires to function optimally. Hormones are the chemical messengers through which body systems are controlled and integrated. Endocrinology encompasses all the hormonal regulatory mechanisms that are used to achieve and maintain homeostasis. Several different endocrine glands will be studied in turn with respect to their control mechanisms, secretory hormonal products and the effects of the hormones produced. It is important to realize, however, that the function of any one gland is affected by the others. By the end of this subunit, you will gain an understanding of the role of hormones and hormone systems in maintaining homeostasis as well as the pathology that can result from hormonal dysfunction or disease.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Endocrinology

Identify the diurnal pattern of adrenal cortex secretion, as well as the effect of stress on adrenal function.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Endocrinology

Explain the interplay among the major systems involved in maintaining calcium homeostasis including the parathyroid glands, the kidneys, the digestive system and the bony skeleton.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Endocrinology

Identify the role of vitamin D in calcium homeostasis.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Endocrinology

Upon completion of this problem, students will be able to describe the role of insulin in lipid, carbohydrate and protein metabolism in normal homeostasis and and appreciate the consequences of the pathophysiological condition of absolute insulin deficiency.
Global Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Endocrinology

Upon completion of this problem, students will outline the key hormones and organs or tissues involved in calcium homeostasis, as well as the causes and consequences of hypercalcemia. Students will also be able to describe the histological structure of bone, the physiology of bone formation and remodeling and the pathophysiology of osteoporosis.
Global Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Endocrinology

Describe hormones, their structure, and their role in homeostasis.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Endocrinology

Discuss bone’s role in homeostasis in conjunction with other organ systems.
General Objectives

Part 4 / Medical Foundation 4 / Musculoskeletal Medicine

List the physiological limits of normal blood gases.
Clerkship Objectives

Clerkship / Surgery Rotation

List the factors that effect oxygen delivery and consumption.
Clerkship Objectives

Clerkship / Surgery Rotation

Indicate the mechanisms, methods of compensation, differential diagnosis, and treatment of the following acid base disorders: acute metabolic acidosis; acute respiratory acidosis; acute metabolic alkalosis; acute respiratory alkalosis.
Clerkship Objectives

Clerkship / Surgery Rotation

Differentiate the signs, symptoms, and hemodynamic features of shock: hemorrhagic; cardiogenic; septic; neurogenic; anaphylactic.
