-
3.00 Credits
This course will focus on the role of sonographic imaging in high risk obstetrics. Topics will include, but are not limited to: maternal diseases and potential fetal consequences; multiple gestation; management of high risk pregnancies; assessment of fetal well being; role of Doppler; interventional procedures; and advanced technologies currently used in obstetrics.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will familiarize the student with obstetrical imaging as visualized with ultrasound. Coursework will include the physiology of pregnancy, embryology, spermatogenesis, oogenesis, and the development of the fetus. Fetal development will include the three trimesters of pregnancy. Lecture and hands-on demonstrations will coincide appropriately to facilitate a simultaneous understanding of didactic and practical application.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will introduce the student to vascular sonography. It will include the hemodynamics, pathology and pathophysiology of the vascular system. The student will be introduced to normal and abnormal vasculature and the differentiation between the venous and arterial systems. Discussion will include the clinical signs and symptoms and the appropriate diagnostic testing and treatment of various vascular diseases. Emphasis will be placed on the functional workings and settings associated with vascular procedures.
-
4.00 Credits
The study of physiological mechanisms affecting physical therapy examination, evaluation and intervention. Includes physical agents, exercise, and modifying variables as related to maintaining and restoring homeostasis. Also includes applied cardiovascular, respiratory, and exercise physiology. Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 2 hours.
-
1.00 Credits
This course is designed to instruct physical therapy students in the physical therapy management of individuals with upper and lower extremity amputation, and incorporation of orthotic devices in patient/client management. (Lecture: 2.5 hours per week for 6 weeks)
-
4.00 Credits
The first of two courses that study human anatomy, emphasizing structure and function in relationship to human movement, inter-relationships of neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, pulmonary systems, and intraabdominal structures. This course emphasizes building a foundation in human anatomy that will be built upon in the second course and integrated in clinical courses. (Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 2 hours.)
-
3.00 Credits
The first of three courses to study disease processes, medical management (including pharmacology), medical screening (including diagnostic imaging and lab testing), and elementary to advanced differential diagnosis. (Lecture: 3 hours.)
-
4.00 Credits
The analysis of human movement is taught from the developmental, kinesiological, and biomechanical perspective. The student will learn functional anatomy, kinesiology and pathokinesiology of the joints, posture, functional movement patterns of the neck, trunk and limbs as a foundation for evaluation and intervention strategies of the musculoskeletal system. (Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 2 hours.)
-
2.00 Credits
The second of two courses that study human anatomy, emphasizing structure and function in relationship to human movement, inter-relationships of neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, vascular, and integumentary structure. This course builds upon the foundation built in Human Anatomy I and includes further exploration of structures and relationships using cadaver dissection. Evidence for the anatomical basis of examination and intervention is explored. (Lecture: 1 hour, Lab: 3 hours.)
-
2.00 Credits
The first of two courses introducing patient handling and physical therapy tests and measurements and intervention strategies. This may include assessment and monitoring of vital signs, goniometry, manual muscle testing, modalities of heat, cold, sound, and water and therapeutic exercise. Introduces problem solving, communication, and patient management skills. (Lab: 4 hours.)
