Study Notes
Health Breakdown Through the Lifespan - Part 2
- This presentation covers various diseases and their classifications
- Specific diseases are discussed, including pictures and videos
- Students are assigned a table from a pre-tutorial activity to categorize diseases
- A review of the categorized diseases will be conducted at a later time
Aetiological Classification of Disease
- This section provides a classification scheme for different diseases
- Congenital diseases are present at birth and can be developmental (e.g., cleft palate) or inherited (e.g., haemophilia)
- Metabolic diseases involve abnormal metabolism or biochemistry (e.g., diabetes mellitus)
- Degenerative diseases involve progressive loss of structure and function (e.g., osteoarthritis)
- Neoplastic diseases involve the growth of new tissue, which can be benign or malignant (e.g., melanoma)
- Infectious diseases are caused by microorganisms, including insects and worms (e.g., chicken pox)
- Immunological diseases involve an abnormal immune response (e.g., anaphylaxis)
- Nutritional diseases involve nutrient deficiencies or abuse (e.g., rickets)
- Induced by a physical agent diseases include accidental or intentional trauma (e.g., fractures)
- Psychogenic diseases have a psychological origin (e.g., depression)
- Latrogenic diseases are caused by medical treatment (e.g., HIV/pressure ulcers from treatment)
- Idiopathic are diseases where the cause is unknown (e.g., some cancers)
- Additional diseases and their classification categories are presented in the table.
