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.
