Physical Therapy Examination
SAR PT 515
Prereq: (SAR HS 369 or SAR HS 581). Coreq: (SAR PT 520). This course is designed to teach the process of physical therapy examination. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model of health and health-related domains will be utilized to develop a general framework for physical therapy examination across systems. The patient management model as outlined in the "Guide to Physical Therapy Practice" will be introduced to provide a process for gathering information. Students will learn to identify disability level problems as well as functional limitations through patient history. Historical information will direct the examination. Analysis of functional tasks will be performed and used to develop hypotheses and direct impairment level testing. Students will learn the appropriate use of impairment level tests across systems. The process of establishing relationships between disabilities, functional limitations, and impairments will be introduced. The interaction of the individual, the task, and the environment will be emphasized. Students will be introduced to interventions that target task and environmental constraints. Professionalism, medical terminology, and methods of documentation will be incorporated. Students must register for two sections: lecture and a laboratory. 4 cr. Tuition: $3180

Functional Anatomy
SAR PT 520
Prereq: (SAR HS 369 or SAR HS 581). Coreq: (SAR PT 515). Builds on previous knowledge of human musculoskeletal anatomy to examine human movement. Principles of biomechanics, connective tissue behavior, and muscle physiology are integrated with joint structure and function to form the basis of understanding normal and pathological movement. Students must register for two sections: lecture and discussion. 4 cr. Tuition: $3180
