92901 Advanced Nursing: Immune Response and Haematological Disruptions
6cp; intensive mode; 500-level subject; clinical studies subject
Postgraduate

This subject is designed to extend students' clinical knowledge base and nursing care management in relation to a broad range of clinical problems that are associated with alterations to the immune system, cellular proliferation or haematological processes. Included are problems such as HIV/AIDS, immuno-suppression, multi-resistant infections, blood diseases and pharmacological interventions which are found across a range of clinical environments and are of considerable importance to acute care clinicians. Targeted in-depth presentations and self-determined practice-focused learning contract objectives assist the student to explore these important aspects of acute care in the context of their own specialty areas.
