This course emphasizes use of current research evidence in healthcare decision-making, an activity known as evidence-based practice, and involves small group, case-based study of commonly encountered cardiovascular disorders, including thromboembolism, heart attack and stroke. Pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment will be discussed from the perspective of clinical and diagnostic professionals. There is an emphasis on critical thinking, clinical application and teamwork skills.
Students will identify case-related topics of interest to investigate. They will evaluate the current wikipedia entry(ies) on the topic and edit or create new content as necessary to fill the information need.
