PT 471B Patient/Client Management: Musculoskeletal II
This course is the
second in a series of three courses on management by the physical therapist for
patients with orthopedic dysfunction for all body regions. Students will progress to this course after
successful completion of PT 471A. Each element of patient/client management
will be considered throughout the course, including examination, evaluation,
diagnosis, prognosis, intervention, and outcomes. This second course consists of lecture and
laboratory components, and focuses on solidifying the knowledge of foundational
concepts introduced during the first course (PT 471A), with application to
upper quarter body regions. As the
course progresses, student performance expectations will demonstrate higher
levels of application, analysis, and synthesis of course content.
