Clinical chemistry is a branch of laboratory medicine that focuses on the analysis of bodily fluids, primarily blood and urine, to aid in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases. The course encompasses the principles, techniques, and interpretation of chemical tests used to evaluate the function of vital organs such as the liver, kidneys, heart, and pancreas. It introduces students to a wide range of biochemical parameters including electrolytes, enzymes, lipids, hormones, metabolites, and proteins. Emphasis is placed on understanding the physiological significance of test results, quality control procedures, instrumentation, and the clinical relevance of abnormal findings. Students also learn about specimen collection, handling, and processing, as well as the ethical and safety considerations in the laboratory environment. The course integrates theoretical knowledge with practical skills to prepare students for professional roles in medical laboratories.
