What the pathophysiology is
• Physiologia, ae, f. gr. fysis = nature; logos = science

• Pathophysiology deals with temporal and spatialtemporal and spatial dynamics dynamics in the intensityin the intensity of pathological processes of pathological processes
• Pathophysiology is devoted to study of protective protective and defensive mechanismsand defensive mechanisms of body tissue, organs of body tissue, organs and systems, and their role and systems, and their role in defence against in defence against noxae, in pathogenesis of disease, and in noxae, in pathogenesis of disease, and in sanogenesis sanogenesis
• Pathophysiology belongs to core subjects of undergraduate medical education
Pathophysiology deals with logic of life under pathological conditions
Pathophysiology help us to understand the logic of life during development of pathological processes
Pathophysiology creates a bridge between sciences and clinical subjects in undergraduate medical education
Pathophysiology is a modern Pathophysiology is a modern integrativeintegrative

• Why pathophysiology is important for medical students and physicians
1. It helps them to find answers to important
questions related to disease processes:
a) a) WhatWhat is the cause/causesis the cause/causes of the disease, and of the disease, and
whywhy
the disease is developing the disease is developing
b) b) What are the mechanismsWhat are the mechanisms responsible for responsible for disease onset, progression, and recoverydisease onset, progression, and recovery
c) c) What are the mechanismsWhat are the mechanisms responsible for responsible for development of development of symptoms and signssymptoms and signs of of
diseasedisease 2. If doctors are able to understand the causes and mechanisms of the disease, then they are able to find the way how to influence them rationally
Relation among pathophysiology and other subjectsof unergraduate medical education
BiologyBiology – pathological processes begin frequently
at the cell level
Anatomy and histologyAnatomy and histology – macro- and microstructural
properties of the human body is essential
for understanding their pathology
BiochemistryBiochemistry – biochemical processes are changed
under pathological condition
BiophysicsBiophysics – biophysical properties of cells, tissues
and organs determine their structural
and functional characteristics
PhysiologyPhysiology – firstly, we have to understand the functions of the
healthy tissues, organs and systems of
the body,
than we are able to distinguish
pathological
functionsPathological anatomyPathological anatomy – to understand the
microstructural and
macrostructural changes under
pathological
conditions helps to understand functional
changes
and vice versa
Microbiology and immunologyMicrobiology and immunology – the subject help us to
understand of the mechanisms involved in
development of disease caused mainly by biologic
noxas and disorders of immune system
PharmacologyPharmacology – PaPhy enables the doctor to treat diseases rationally (causally)
Clinical subjectsClinical subjects – PaPhy is a theory of disease, clinic is medical practice
Humanistic subjectsHumanistic subjects (psychology, ethics, sociology,
antropology...) – psychologic and social factors play an
important role in disease development

It deals with general pathologic processes, and pathomechanisms: -thay are involved in
pathogenesis of more than one disease. It also contain explanation of some basic medical terms
● Examples of general pathological processes – inflammation, fever, hyperthermia, hypothermia, shock, stress, edemas, disturbances of control mechanisms, hyperreactivity, hyporeactivity, damage of genetic information....
● Defensive and adaptive mechanisms –
- non-specific and specific immunity, hypertrophy,
atrophy, hyperfunction, hypofunction, homeostasis
● Incresed predisposition to onset of disease
(diathesis, athopy) – due to genetic or/and
environmental factors

● Cellular and molecular pathophysiology
● Pathogenesis of disease processes can not be reduced to only quantitative changes of structures, functions and mechanisms presenting in healthy people
● It is necessary to take into account development of qualitatively new processes, which are harmful
for the body structure and functionsOne example of such new pathologic
mechanism is vicious circle (a complex of events that
reinforces itself through a feedback loop toward greater instability)
