Biochemistry for Medicine Course
This course explores biochemistry in alcohol-related ketoacidosis and starvation states. Learners connect redox chemistry, hepatic metabolism, ketogenesis, and gluconeogenesis to lab panels, ABG interpretation, and electrolyte patterns. It covers fluid selection, dextrose use, thiamine administration, and safe decisions on insulin and bicarbonate, enhancing clinical reasoning for medical practice.

What will I learn?
The Biochemistry for Medicine Course offers a focused, case-based study of alcohol-related ketoacidosis and starvation states. Participants link redox chemistry, hepatic metabolism, ketogenesis, and gluconeogenesis with lab panels, ABG interpretation, and electrolyte patterns. They learn to apply this knowledge for fluid selection, dextrose use, thiamine, and safe choices on insulin and bicarbonate.
