Course Objectives Basic knowledge on mechanics/pathomechanics of columna vertebralis, pelvis, hip, knee, ankle joint/foot and shoulder-arm komplex, elbow and wrist are given. A student who successfully completes the course is expected to have acquired the competency to carry the theoretical knowledge to the pathological conditions of loer and upper limbs and spine.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Describes the normal motion/function and make comparisons with pathological conditions.
  • Describes the anatomic and mechanical characteristics of columna vertebralis and compares with pathological conditions; learns preventative factors, ergonomic principles and importance of exercise.
  • Learns mechanic and pathologic features of pelvis, hip, knees, ankle and foot, questions the knowledge to analyse.
  • Learns the kinematic and kinetic data for the dynamic activities of lower limbs.
  • Defines mechanical and pathological conditions of shoulder-arm complex, elbow, wrist, hand and uses this knowledge in practice.
Course Content Mechanics and pathomechanics of columna vertebralis, mechanics and pathomechanisc of pelvis, hip, knee, ankle joint and foot, mechanics and pathomechanics of shoulder-arm komplex, elbow, wrist and hand.
