NUR2063 – ESSENTIALS OF PATHOPHYSIOLOGY EXAM 2
QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT ANSWERS
This course (NUR2063) covers the fundamental principles of pathophysiology as
they relate to nursing practice. It explores cellular function, homeostasis,
adaptation, and dysfunction, as well as system-level disease mechanisms
including respiratory, cardiovascular, renal, immunologic, gastrointestinal, and
hematologic disorders. Through case studies and concept-mapping (e.g., asthma,
fibromyalgia), the course emphasizes application of pathophysiologic processes to
clinical scenarios.
