nurs6501 week 10 assignment :The Pathophysiology of Disorders
During the last 5 weeks, you have explored various body
systems: neurological, cardiovascular, respiratory, and hematological. These
four systems work together along with other body systems to complete a myriad
of functions. For this reason, when disorders occur within one body system, it
can create potentially devastating effects throughout the entire body. For
instance, Parkinson’s disease is a disorder of the central nervous system, yet
its alterations actually affect multiple body systems from the cardiovascular system
to the gastrointestinal system. In this Assignment, you examine alterations
associated with disorders, as well as the impact of the alterations on multiple
body systems.
