About the course

This is the first of a series of modules which will walk you through important concepts to apply when carrying out a primary healthcare consultation.  In this first part of the Introduction there will be a little reminder on anatomy, physiology and patient assessment. Remembering the structure and how the body works is very important for the clinical reasoning process. 

You will work as a “detective”, interpreting all the “clues” and finding a diagnosis for the patient!  

These are the learning outcomes of this Module Intro A:  

• Refresher on basics of anatomy and physiology of main human systems. 
• Assemble the different steps for Information Gathering.   
• Use a logical process to break down information and work through it to reach the diagnosis.
