| Publisher Description: The study of anatomy and physiology is a necessary first step for many careers--not only those in healthcare fields such as medical assistant, nursing assistant, medical records technician, dental assistant, and laboratory technician, but also in sports-related and exercise fields. More than most, these fields require hands-on practice and experience. The purpose of this laboratory manual is to provide a structured environment that introduces you to the hands-on side of anatomy and physiology. Many of the activities in this manual simply reinforce basic concepts described in your textbook. Others, including the many interactive, hands-on procedures and dissections, extend well beyond textbook concepts. These labs are designed to provide true lab experiences to supplement your existing knowledge and to expose you to the techniques and requirements of working in a laboratory. Each activity begins with a list of objectives to guide your expectations and learning from the activity. A list of materials is included for all interactive laboratory investigations check these lists to be sure you have everything you need before beginning the lab. The purpose of the Pre-Lab Review in the interactive labs is to refresh your memory about topics related to the lab. Perform each procedure exactly as described, taking careful note of the Safety and Caution notes, as well as the Clinician Tip and Hint features. At the end of each interactive lab, use the conclusion questions to review the concepts. The main portion of the laboratory manual consists of 16 chapters that focus on various body systems. After the last chapter, a collection of Cumulative Case Studies helps you put all of the information you have studied to use in a clinical scenario. These case studies require an understanding of multiple body systems and will give you a good idea of how anatomy and physiology principles are used in healthcare-related fields. |
