ANATOMY 03048, LECTURE AND LAB FINAL PREVIEWS, FALL 1999 11/23/99

W. Crone (303 FTZ, 629-7439, cronewil@hvcc.edu, http://www.hvcc.edu/academ/faculty/crone/index.html)

THE LECTURE FINAL WILL BE SATURDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1999 FROM 3:45 TO 5:45 PM IN AMSTUZ 110. Please bring sharpened #2 pencils for the Scantron form.

This test will cover neuroanatomy and lower and upper extremities. At the rate we're going, I'm not sure I will be able to get a lecture in about cartilage, bone, or cerebral histology, so you probably won't have to worry about that in anatomy (save for physiology?). I can tell you that at least three of the"essays" will be patient scenarios requiring some form of neurolocalization. The test will be in a similar format to the last two lecture tests, with 150 points total.

30 multiple-choice questions, two points each, for a total of 60 points.

6 essays, fifteen points each, for a total of 90 points

THE LABORATORY FINAL WILL BE DURING THE LAST WEEK OF CLASSES, DECEMBER 15-17, 1999.

This will be 30 questions covering brain/internal brain case, lower and upper extremities. Although we have made good progress on the lower extremity, I'm not sure if we'll be able to duplicate that with the upper extremity (lots of intrinsic hand muscles). We also have to include a final cleanup of instruments and packaging of the cadavers during Week 15. I can offer the following options to ensure sufficient review time (in addition to making a lot of progress in Week 14 when we return). Wednesday: 12/15/99, Thursday 12/16/99, Friday 12/17/99

  1. everyone has review on Wednesday and Thursday, and then three rounds of testing, each section on Friday with time slots at: 7:30, 8:45, 9:50 or some such pacing.
  2. divide up Wednesday so that half of the class has review 8:00 to 9:25, and then 9:25 to 11:50, and then have Wednesday's lab section take the test on the later days, half of them on Thursday and half on Friday.
  3. keep the pattern as before, where the first hour of each lab section is review.

Please let me know when we get back after the break. If there is not an overwhelming interest for one of the first two options, we'll stick with C.

PHYSIOLOGY BOOKS FOR THE SPRING 2000 SEMESTER

Some of you have expressed interest in the additional books for the spring. Don't worry, we will still be using the histology and neuroanatomy books, as well as the web site case scenarios. The class will be divided into two recitation sections, where we will go over patient scenarios in rooms that should be able to project web and printed page materials. Given this weekly exploration of patient scenarios, I have asked that you buy the following new books for the spring. One is the classic medical physiology textbook. Guyton has an answer for almost every clinical situation. I emailed the authors at U. of Miss.--the next edition will be coming out sometime late 2000, so that doesn't help us. Dr. Hall said that the 10th edition will not be very different than the 9th, except for some molecular updates. The Michael and Rovick book will offer a lot of material for recitation, with its emphasis on problem solving.
