Preface

There is a shortage in Ethiopia of teaching / learning material in the area of anatomy and physicalogy for nurses. The Carter Center EPHTI appreciating the problem and promoted the development of this lecture note that could help both the teachers and students. Human anatomy and physiology is more than just interesting, it is fascinating. To help get the students and instructions involved in the study of this subject, a number of special features are incorporated throughout the lecture note. The lecture note provides a thorough review of human anatomy and physiology applicable to the nurses. It covers all body parts using a systemic approach. Each chapter is designed to aid effective student learning.

Each chapter contains:

- The Learning objectives: what the students are expected to accomplish upon completion of a particular chapter. - Key concepts: summary of selected key terms included in the chapter. - Illustrations: there will aid the students to achieve a better understanding of the subject matter.

Introduction

The course human anatomy and physiology for nurses is designed to help student nurses learn and understand how the human body is organized and function. Equipping the student nurse with the knowledge of anatomy and physiology will further assist the student in understanding what happens and what to do when the body is injured, diseased or placed under stress. This teaching and learning material (lecture note) for nursing students at a diploma level is prepared in line with this concept. Therefore, the students are expected to achieve the following general educational objectives after completion of the course: - Understand and use anatomical terms. - Understand the function of the various organs and their relations with one another. - Know the location of each organ and the important anatomical land marks. - Know the normal structure of the human body in general. - Use the knowledge of anatomy and physiology in nursing practice.

1.1 What are Anatomy and Physiology?

Anatomy: the word anatomy is derived from a Greek word "Anatome" meaning to cut up. It is the study of structures that make up the body and how those structures relate with each other. The study of anatomy includes many sub specialties. These are Gross anatomy, Microscopic anatomy, Developmental anatomy and Embryology. Gross anatomy studies body structure with out microscope. Systemic anatomy studies functional relationships of organs within a system whereas Regional anatomy studies body part regionally. Both systemic and regional approaches may be used to study gross anatomyquotesdbs_dbs9.pdfusesText_15
