A four Weeks Short- Term Course on Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Programs in Musculoskeletal Injuries will be held by Medicine Faculty of Aja University of Military Medical Sciences.
Musculoskeletal injuries (MSIs) are the leading healthcare problem. Risk factors include participation in sports, carrying heavy loads, older age, standing for long periods of time, and walking long distances.. Physical therapists work at the Combat Support Hospitals to provide rehabilitation care to injured personnel and reduce recovery time . Rapid access to musculoskeletal physiotherapists can reduce the amount of time people are off sick and is vital in preventing a new acute problem becoming chronic and long lasting.
Aim
1. Apply biomedical and behavioural scientific knowledge to the evaluation and management of complex musculoskeletal disorders
2. Describe the aetiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis and clinical presentation of selected complex musculoskeletal disorders
3. Adapt the clinical examination for more complex disorders of the musculoskeletal system, integrating advanced physical examination procedures
4. Appropriately select, modify as necessary, and correctly demonstrate advanced measurement and testing procedures commonly used in assessing musculoskeletal dysfunction
5. Describe the conservative and surgical management of selected complex musculoskeletal disorders
6. Appropriately select, modify as necessary, and correctly demonstrate advanced active and passive treatment procedures commonly used in the management of musculoskeletal dysfunction
7. Develop appropriate strategies of physiotherapy management to address functional requirements in the home, sport setting and occupational environment
8. Demonstrate a well developed understanding of the physiotherapist's role in promoting wellness as relevant to the musculoskeletal system
9. Effectively assess and treat complex paediatric musculoskeletal disorders
Description
This course aims to provide a holistic preparation for the management of physical rehabilitation programs for patients with musculoskeletal disorders. The course will build upon your understanding
of the role of the musculoskeletal system in the control of movement developed in Motor Control and Dysfunction, and upon the interview, assessment and exercise prescription skills developed in
Movement Rehabilitation. You will be expected to apply and adapt knowledge gained throughout your degree to specific case studies and scenarios relevant to musculoskeletal
rehabilitation.
