INTRODUCTION
Allocated Time:
Review:
5 Minutes
You have had previous lectures on anatomy and physiology during the Combat
medic course, this lecture will built upon what you have already learned.
Objective:
This chapter covers the functions of the skeletal system, the structure
and the physiology of the formation of bone (ossification). The
physiology of bone growth is covered, along with the factors that affect
bone growth. Bone remodeling is covered as a homeostatic process of
bone, along with bone's role in calcium homeostasis. Fractures and the
repair of bone are also included. The effect of exercise on bone tissue is
described.
Importance:
Nursing Assistants work in different health care setting so it is important to
gain an understainding of this subject as it will apply to clinical setting.
Fit:
This is the sixth chapter on anatomy and physiology.
Approach:
You will be presented the subject in a lecture format and will be tested using a
written exam at a later date.
Control Statement:
If you have any questions during the lesson please feel free to ask.

hormones that stimulate opposing activities of osteocells in order to maintain blood
calcium homeostasis.
