CM 720 - Clinical Case Presentation II

Credit(s): 1.00

In the Clinical Case Presentation series, students apply and integrate the concepts and information learned in their academic courses to clinical scenarios. The types of cases examined and discussed include the following: patient cases encountered on clinical mentorship shifts, teaching cases presented by the instructor, and live cases facilitated in the classroom. Rather than simply reviewing what the practitioner did, this class considers each case from a variety of classical Chinese medical perspectives. Students bridge their understanding of Chinese cosmology to an exploration of the case from zang-fu, six conformation, and five-element lenses, thereby connecting the classroom education to the clinical realm. Prerequisite(s): Third-year status; These courses are to be taken in the ordered sequence of CM710, CM720 and CM730.
