CLINICAL DECISION MAKING: NEUROMUSCULAR MECHANICS AND CONTROL

MEDSC-M 775

Introduction to core basic science, pathophysiologic, and diagnostic principles requisite for the care and treatment of patients with musculoskeletal, neurologic, and psychiatric presentations and disorders. Basic science concepts include those from the traditional disciplines of cell biology, histology, biochemistry, anatomy, embryology, neuroscience, and behavioral science. Regular integration of these topics with their pathologic and pathophysiologic counterparts. Integration of content related to other competency domains, or "longitudinal threads", that include patient care communication, evidence based medicine, health information technology, quality improvement patient safety, professionalism, scientific inquiry and public health.

KINES 618

Biomechanics of human movement and skill with emphasis on kinematics and kinetics.

PHYTHER 627

Addresses the cardiovascular, pulmonary, neuromuscular and connective tissue properties and adaptations that influence human movement through the lifespan. Through an understanding of the system integration, gain an appreciation of the physiological complexities underlying human movement.

PHYTHER 636

Application of motor control and motor learning principles to the examination, diagnosis, and management of people with movement disorders from spinal cord injuries, PNS dysfunction and progressive disorders of the CNS.

PHYTHER 635

Application of motor control and motor learning principles to the examination, diagnosis, and management of people with movement disorders stemming from CNS pathology. Emphasis on neurological interventions across the lifespan.
