PPT 601 - Patient Presentation[COM 2026 only] Course Description: This is the first course in a two-year series of courses. The patient presentation model is designed to allow students to make meaningful connections between the structural and functional foundations of health and wellness. Each progressive course covers new and additional organ systems and patient presentations and cases, all building on the knowledge acquired in earlier terms to prepare students for competent entry to practice. For the first 8 weeks of this course, students will participate in an intensive introduction to the foundational sciences in medicine including anatomy, physiology, microbiology, immunology, pharmacology, embryology, biochemistry, and pathology. In the later 4 weeks of the course, students begin to engage in a patient presentation model combined with team-based learning to acquire, analyze, and apply knowledge of the foundational medical sciences strongly rooted in clinical medicine. Students will work through a series of modules that cover the structure and function of the human body through a series of organ systems, examining the differences between health and disease through patient cases, symptoms, and causative or diagnostic schemas all within the framework of osteopathic medicine. In Term I, the Patient Presentation Model will focus on the hematologic system. Credits: 4 |
