Language(s) of instruction :

French language

Units courses prerequisite and corequisite :

Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program

Course contents :

Part 1: Anatomy

Part 2: Neuroanatomy

Neuro-anatomy:
The course is intended to convey information on the anatomical and functional organisation of the vegetative nervous system.

Part 3: Histology

Histology of blood and lymphatic circulatory systems and heart

Part 4: Physiology

General organization of the cardiovascular system.
Functional study of the heart: electrical aspects.
Functional study of the heart: the mechanical aspects.
Study of the vascular system.
Cardiovascular responses to physiological or pathological situations.

Part 5: General pathology

The courses in general pathology within this module concern heart infarcts and circulation disorders. We will describe the general physiopathological mechanisms that account for the development of infarcts, namely arteriosclerosis, cleft in the atheromatous plaque, formation of thrombus, vascular occlusion, ischemia, and tissular necrosis. Next, we will turn to a particular case of infarct: namely myocardial infarction. We will consider circumstances in which it can occur as well as its physiopathological features. The course on circulation disorders will focus on edema, embolism and thromboses.

Part 6: special pathology

Introduction to cardiopathies (heart troubles) that include heart revalidation in therapeutic care: stable angor, unstable angor, acute infarcts of the heart muscle, valvulopathies, hypertension, heart deficiency.

Part 7: physiotherapy

The course in physiotherapy introduces principles of reeducation related to heart problems.

Learning outcomes of the course :

Part 1: Anatomy

Part 2: Neuroanatomy

Neuro-anatomy:
Knowing about the anatomical and functional organisation of the vegetative nervous system makes it easier for students to understand how cardiovascular functions regulate themselves and why they may go wrong in pathological conditions.

Part 4: Physiology

Knowledge of the elements listed in the overview

Part 5: General pathology

Describe the physio-pathological mechanisms involved in the appearance and development of prevailing pathologies. Notions taught in this course are necessary to understand the course in special pathology.

Part 6: special pathology

Bring students to understand major tenets in pathogenesis, clinical presentation, stages in the treatment of considered diseases.

Part 7: physiotherapy

Theoretical and practical introduction to reeducation treatments adapted to various heart pathologies by integrating them into a multidisciplinary approach.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills :

Part 1: Anatomy

Part 2: Neuroanatomy

Neuro-anatomy:
Elementary information on the Anatomy of the nervous system as taught in secondary schools and in the introductory course to human anatomy.

Part 3: Histology

Prerequisites: general histology
co-requisites: : the other lectures of the module

Part 4: Physiology

Part 5: General pathology

Biochemistry, physiology, histology.

Part 6: special pathology

Notions of anatomy, understanding physiology and major physiopathological mechanisms.
