Class/Training Description: This RXPP 603 class 7 focuses on Hematologic, Cardiovascular, and Lymphatic Systems. Many psychopharmacological agents have significant effects on these systems. The prescribing psychologist must be very familiar with the normal physiology and pathophysiology of these systems. The trainee will become familiar diagnostic testing with these systems. Hematology is the science or study of blood, blood-forming organs and blood diseases. In the medical field, hematology includes the treatment of blood disorders and malignancies, including types of hemophilia, leukemia, lymphoma and sickle-cell anemia. Interventional Cardiology is an area of medicine within the subspecialty of cardiology that uses specialized imaging and other diagnostic techniques to evaluate blood flow and pressure in the coronary arteries and chambers of the heart, as well as technical procedures and medications to treat abnormalities that impair the function of the cardiovascular system. Embedded within the discussion of cardiology is the lymphatic system, or lymphoid system. Which is an organ system (in vertebrates) that is part of the circulatory system and the immune system. Regarding the systems above, both adult and pediatric treatment populations will be lectured upon.
Objectives: By the end of the training students/trainings will:
1. List 3 compositional features of the Blood.
2. Recite at least 5 cellular components of the Blood.
3. Name 2 lymphoid organs of the lymphatic system.
4. Recall at least 3 processes of Hematopoiesis
5. Differentiate between 2 etiologic (pathophysiologic) classifications of anemias.
6. Distinguish and contrast between 3 morphologic classifications of anemias.
7. Name at least 5 types of anemias and articulate each of their pathophysiologic mechanisms.
8. Match the primary cause of at least 5 types of anemias to their corresponding name and pathophysiological mechanism.
9. Associate at least 6 laboratory studies/tests, and their values, to correct type of anemia.
10. List at least 5 drug classes in which anemias have resulted secondary to drug effects.
11. Name at least 1 acquired form and 1 hereditary form of hemolytic anemias.
12. Evaluate 2 features of acute and 2 features of chronic Leukemia.
13. Compare and contrast 4 subtypes of Hodgkin Lymphoma.
14. Name and articulate at least 3 types of thromboembolic diseases.
15. Classify at least 3 distinct alternations of hematologic function in children.
16. List 3 diseases of the veins.
17. Name at least 7 diseases of the arties.
18. Differentiate between 4 disorders of the heart wall, and 2 manifestations of heart disease.
19. List at least 5 tests of cardiovascular function.
20. Match at least 5 indicators of cardiac function with their correct/corresponding common cause of abnormality.
21. Discuss the cardiovascular functioning in aging and older adults.
22. Classify at least 3 distinct alternations of cardiovascular function in children.
Evaluation: There will be a test/quiz (multiple choice, short answer or true/false) which will be available to students/trainings after the training weekend. A study guide may or may not be provided by the Instructed prior to training. Case studies assignments will be presented that involve dual diagnoses, medical, and/or psychological problems. Students will be expected to respond to the case study assignment in a timely, analytical manner. Students’ experiential case studies will be graded on pass/fail with the expectation for a demonstration of a high-level competence of the biopsychosocial model of care. The grades on the standardized quizzes will constitute one-thirds of the grade; whereas the grade on the case studies and attendance equal two-third of the grade for the remainder of the course. Participations and engagement by the trainee will be observed. Students will be able to submit class evaluations about the class content and Instructor after the training weekend.
Grading Assignments Points Possible
Test (30 questions @ 1 pts each) 30 pts.
Case Study Assignment/Analysis 60 pts.
Participation/Attendance (live or via AdobeConnect) 10 pts.
Course grades:
90-100 pts total = “A”
80-89 pts total = “B”
70-79 pts total = “C”
Students with Disabilities: If you have or believe you have a disability, you may wish to self- identify. You can do so by providing documentation to the Office for Services for Students with Disabilities, located at Garcia Annex (telephone: 646-6840). Appropriate accommodations may then be provided for you. If you have a condition which may affect your ability to exit from the premises in an emergency or which may cause an emergency during class, you are encouraged to discuss this in confidence with the instructor and/or the director of Disabled Student Programs. If you have questions about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), call 646-3635.
Student complaints: If students have a complaint about a course, they are advised to discuss their concerns directly with the instructor whenever possible. If that does not resolve the problem or if they cannot approach the instructor, students should either access NMSU’s online complaint system at https://dos.nmsu.edu/concerns/ or seek out the department head (eadams@nmsu.edu) for help resolving the problem. Both of these processes provide opportunities for the department head to know about issues that need attention and for instructors to receive information about student concerns so that they can respond.
Further Notice: Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) covers issues relating to disability and accommodations. If a student has questions or needs an accommodation in the classroom (all medical information is treated confidentially), contact:
