Fisiopatològic

Fisiopatològic refers to the study of the physiological and pathological processes that occur in a disease state. It investigates how the normal functioning of the body is disrupted by disease, leading to observable signs and symptoms. This field bridges the gap between basic physiology and clinical medicine, explaining the underlying mechanisms that cause illness. Understanding fisiopatològic helps in diagnosing diseases, developing effective treatments, and predicting the course of a condition. It examines cellular and molecular alterations, organ system dysfunction, and the body's response to injury or infection. By analyzing these changes, researchers and clinicians gain insights into how to intervene and restore health. The term is derived from the Greek words "physis" (nature), "pathos" (suffering), and "logos" (study). In essence, fisiopatològic seeks to understand the "why" and "how" of disease from a biological perspective. It is a fundamental discipline for medical education and research.
