The GI and Hepatic Systems Module focuses on the pathology, pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, diagnostic methods, and drugs used for the treatment of disorders related to these systems. This module emphasizes the ongoing development of clinical reasoning skills, an understanding of the clinical-pathologic correlations of the diseases, and skills of critical judgment based on evidence. Diagnostic methods and procedures, their indications, contraindications, and complications will be discussed. An understanding of ethical, psychosocial, and cultural factors that affect patient behavior and influence treatment plans will be integrated into the topics presented in this module.
