Course Objectives The aim of this course is to examine various technological systems used in physiotherapy practice and to explain the principles, areas of use and effectiveness of these systems to students. This course aims to provide students with information about modern rehabilitation techniques and to teach how technology-based tools can be integrated into the physiotherapy process. It also helps students develop their skills in using technology and support patients more effectively in the rehabilitation process.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Students will be able to understand and evaluate various technology-based rehabilitation systems and their role in physiotherapy practice.
  • Students will be able to use these systems effectively in the rehabilitation process by understanding the principles and working mechanisms of the systems examined in the course.
  • ⁠Students will develop the ability to select the most appropriate systems for patient care by evaluating the advantages and limitations of technology-based tools.
  • At the end of the course, students will gain the ability to manage the treatment process of patients more effectively by using modern rehabilitation techniques.
  • In addition, at the end of the course, students will be able to continuously update their own practice by following current research and developments on the use of technology-based rehabilitation systems.
Course Content Examines various technological tools and systems commonly used in physiotherapy and rehabilitation practice. This course teaches students the working principles, uses and effectiveness of technological systems. It also teaches students how to integrate technology-based tools and how to apply them to the rehabilitation process of patients.
