Rehabilitation of osteoarticular diseases (2017/2018)
The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
------------------------
MM: PROTESIOLOGIA E ORTESIOLOGIA
------------------------
Provide notions concerning the rehabilitation of the patient with upper and lower limb amputee, in a multidisciplinary team environment. PROVIDE basics Several types of prosthesis. Provide notions regarded the orthosis and Their use within the rehabilitation program
------------------------
MM: MALATTIE DELL'APPARATO LOCOMOTORE IN ORTOPEDIA E TRAUMATOLOGIA E IMAGING
------------------------
..................................................................
------------------------
MM: MEDICINA FISICA E RIABILITAZIONE DELL'APPARATO LOCOMOTORE
------------------------
The student will improve knowledge of the pathophysiology of the neuro-musculoskeletal disorders including pain syndromes resulting from acute and chronic diseases, relevant in rehabilitation. The student will acquire knowledge of functional assessment to identify neuro-musculoskeletal dysfunctions resulting in acute and chronic diseases related to recovery. The student will be able to define the rehabilitative goals and understand the treatment plan of neuro-musculoskeletal disorders including the pain syndromes, in a multidisciplinary team environment.
------------------------
MM: METODOLOGIA DELLA FISIOTERAPIA DEI DISORDINI MUSCOLOSCHELETRICI
------------------------
- know differential evaluation and the planning of physiotherapy interventions in musculoskeletal disorders; - know definitions, dimensions, possible determinants, possible consequences, and determinant-specific treatments of functional impairments, limitations of activity and restrictions of muscoloskeletal disorsders (joint stiffness, contractures, muscle deficit, pain, altered sensitivity and Image, articulate instability, postural alterations, kinematic alterations and remedies ...); - know rational and foundations of practical application of basic physiotherapy techniques (manual therapy, stretching, therapeutic exercise ...).
------------------------
MM: REUMATOLOGIA
------------------------
To know the basic pathogenesis of rheumatic diseases To asses the clinical manifestations for the diagnosis of arthritis and connective tissue diseases To know the classes of treatment and understand the role of the physiotherapy in the different rheumatic diseases
