What Human Anatomy And Physiology Principles covers

Human Anatomy And Physiology Principles gives Biomedical Engineering Level 6 learners the body knowledge needed to understand the equipment they service. It begins with medical terminology, body compartments, cells, tissues and organs. Each system then gets its own outcome, covering anatomy, physiology and common disorders: musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, nervous and reproductive. Dental anatomy covers the tooth, the buccal cavity, common dental diseases and diagnostic and therapeutic equipment. Special sensory organs close the unit with the eye, ear and nose. Basic patient care, medical ethics and the relevant code of practice run through the work.
