MedSurg | Metabolic / Endocrine
The Metabolic and Endocrine Course reviews the major organs and glands involved in secreting hormones in our bodies. Hormones are responsible for regulating nearly every basic function of our body, like our heart rate and processing blood sugar. This course breaks down what happens when each gland is overactive or underactive. We will also walk you through the sometimes confusing condition known as Diabetes Mellitus.
