CLS 6231 - Urology and Nephrology

Credit(s): 5.50

In this course we begin with a review of renal anatomy, physiology and normal function as a prelude to understanding dysfunction and its effects on patients. Next comes a comprehensive exploration of the differential diagnosis, work-up, assessment, evidence-informed treatment and collaborative management of common and critical renal and urinary conditions. Through lectures, classroom activities, case discussions and peer presentations we will explore this vital system from both traditional naturopathic and primary care perspectives.
