PT 472C Patient/Client Management: Neuromuscular (Advanced)

This course is the third in a series of three courses on assessment and management of the patient with neurological dysfunction. This course will expand upon concepts and skills learned in previous courses in physical therapy assessment and management of neurological dysfunction. Students will refine their skills in examination, evaluation and formulation of a treatment plan for the patient with complex neurological impairments and those with multiple system dysfunction. Movement analysis, motor control and motor learning theory, as well as clinical reasoning skills will be applied to identify and address impairments, abnormal movement patterns and activity limitations. Current literature will be incorporated to promote evidence-based practice.
