Learning objectives

Use knowledge acquired from frontal lessons in the planning of the physiotherapy process on real clinical cases, by means of videotapes, paper, simulated cases with patients affected by musculoskeletal or neurological pathologies. Develop clinical reasoning from data collection to planning and implementation of physiotherapy intervention. Organize therapeutic exercises by taking into account the main aspects (e.g. biomechanics, communication, education and others) and applying basic manual therapy techniques.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Know the physiology of the nervous-muscular-articular systems, neurology and neurophysiopathology. Know and be able to use the methodologies for the evaluation of the patient with neurological problems. Know the applications of innovative technologies based on electromechanical and robotic devices for the upper and lower limb.

Program

Define the concept of assessment based on the ICF constructs, starting from the anamnesis to the clinical assessment of the neurological patient. Encourage clinical observation to promote the identification of neurological signs and symptoms. Put into practice clinical tests to collect symptoms and signs, which do not emerge from the observation of the patient. Develop the student's clinical reasoning once the clinical information has been collected, facilitate the differential diagnosis with the aim of defining a precise functional diagnosis with respect to neurological dysfunctions. Define a rehabilitation project with long, medium and short-term objectives. For each identified objective, build a coherent rehabilitation treatment through rehabilitation proposals that include: patient education, caregiver education, therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, use of aids and orthoses and use of robotic devices.

Didactic methods

Theoretical frontal lesson on assessment through briefing with the class group to bring out students' theoretical knowledge. Theoretical exercise in small groups on clinical cases and practical exercise in small groups. Group plenary to bring out students' expressed and tacit knowledge and skills and organize them in an orderly and coherent way with the teaching.

Learning assessment procedures

Active participation of the student during the small group exercise in which clinical reasoning is required to be consistent with the mandate of the exercises. Participation in the plenary by the student in which reflection on the skills acted out and tacit during the small group exercise is required.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

Observation of skills expressed by students during group exercises. Identification of student reflections that allow him to connect theory and practice.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The final vote will be composed as follows: approved or not approved.
