Acute New, usually of rapid onset and of concern, opposite of chronic Asymptomatic showing no symptoms of disease Chronic Long-standing, constant. Opposite of acute Clinical manifestations the presenting signs and symptoms of the disease Complications New secondary or additional problems Concept a general idea that can be applied to similar situations Diagnosis the process of discovering exactly what is wrong with someone or something, by examining them closely Disease the functional im...

What is the difference between pathophysiology and pathology? Pathophysiology: the study of the functional bodily changes that occur as a result of an injury, disorder, or disease (the mechanisms of disease) Pathology: the study of changes in cells and tissues as a result of injury or disease (studying a disease) What is a syndrome? a specific condition with a recognizable, predictable pattern Define pathogenesis. the disease beginning; when the disease process begins until symptom on...

Pathophysiology the study of the functional changes that occur in the body as a result of an injury, disorder or disease Pathology study of changes in cells and tissues as a result of injury or disease Pathogenesis the disease beginning Disease the functional impairment of cells, tissues, organs Etiology cause of disease Primary prevention prohibits a disease condition from occurring Secondary prevention it's the early detection of disease through screening and early treatment Tertia...

Pathophysiology the study of diseases (pathology) and the study of the functions of the body (physiology) Pharmacology study of drugs Etiology the study of causes/reasons. Identifies causal factors. Causal Factors what causes the disease or virus to infect. Idiopathic cause is unknown Iatrogenic of or relating to illness caused by medical examination or treatment. eg. Iatrogenic disease, Iatrogenic pneumothorax Risk Factors factors that put you at higher risk for certain illnesses or di...
