Clinical Biochemistry: Lecture Notes

A vast array of topics essential to clinical biochemistry, including the principles of sample processing and error avoidance, the interpretation of diagnostic tests (such as sensitivity and specificity), and the investigation of major organ systems and metabolic disorders. Significant sections detail the biochemistry of fluid and electrolyte imbalances (e.g., hypernatraemia, hypokalaemia), endocrine disorders (focusing on the pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, and reproductive axes), and the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases such as diabetes mellitus, liver and kidney failure, cardiovascular disease, and various cancers using tumor markers. Additionally, the text addresses nutritional assessment, therapeutic drug monitoring, and the unique challenges of paediatric and geriatric biochemistry.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/pharmacy_simpleProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
