Basics of Neurological Physiotherapy at Different AgesLaajuus (7 cr)
Code: TH00CJ61
Credits
7 op
Objective
The student is able to
• identify dysfunctions of the nervous system and the effect of them on client´s functional ability at adult clients,
• explain the connections between dysfunctions of the nervous system and constrains of the performance and participation,
• identify neuropsychological changes and the effect of them on client´s functional ability and participation,
• explain the promoting and limiting factors of the client’s living environment and individual resources related on client’s ability to function,
• take into account the ethical principles of physiotherapy
• select and apply appropriate examination methods of physiotherapy to detect client’s resources and deficiencies of nervous system and their effects on the client’s performance and participation,
• draw up physiotherapeutic diagnosis of a neurological client and based on it, client-oriented goals (GAS, SMART),
• explain the main evidence based physiotherapy methods to support neurological client’s ability to function,
• choose and justify the evidence based methods of physiotherapy in designing, implementing and evaluating physiotherapy.
Content
Control of movement and performance at level of nervous system (upper and lower motor neuron deficiencies), identifying the effects of the main tonus and movement disorders (for example spasticity, rigidity, ataxia), identifying the common perceptual cognitive disorders (neglect, apraxia) affecting on physiotherapy planning and implementation, identifying relationship between constrains of nervous system and limitations of performance and participation in adults, physiotherapy for supporting ability to function at different ages; using technology in examination and implementation of physiotherapy.
Qualifications
The student is able to
• describe structures and function of musculoskeletal and nervous systems.
• observe and analyze motion and movement
• guide and facilitate human motion and movements
• describe the main neurological phenomenon and concepts.
