75301 - Physiotherapy in Specialist Area (IM)

Learning outcomes

At the end of the module the student has the ability to apply knowledge and understanding regarding the clinical-functional balance of subjects with pathology affecting the cardio-respiratory system. Knows the objectives and knows how to plan, plan and implement a physiotherapy intervention, in subjects with respiratory-cardiological pathology and / or subjected to surgery / transplantation.

The student knows and understands the epidemiology, the preventive aspects and the main operating techniques in burns patients. Knows and understands the role, the purpose of rehabilitation and knows how to plan, plan and implement an adequate rehabilitation intervention in the burn patient.

The student knows and understands the theoretical principles and knows how to plan, program and apply a physiotherapy intervention in patients with pelvic floor dysfunctions or with urinary and fecal incontinence.

Teaching methods

Frontal lessons, use of digital tecnique and practical exercises.

In consideration of the types of activities and teaching methods used, attendance in this training activity requires all students to complete modules 1 and 2 in e-learning mode and participate in the classroom (8 hours) for the third module of specific training on safety and health in study/internship environments.

Assessment methods

The verification of learning takes place through an oral test lasting 20/30 minutes, which aims to verify the acquisition of knowledge, the presentation and critical judgment skills developed by the students. The exam consists of three questions on respiratory rehabilitation, specifically on the functional assessment of patients with cardio-respiratory problems and the various rehabilitative techniques that can be applied Two questions will follow on the rehabilitation issues of the burn patient and two questions on the rehabilitation of the pelvic floor. In the evaluation, particular attention will be paid to the acquisition of clinical reasoning and a logical-deductive method in the exposition of the contents.

Training gaps or inappropriate language cannot help but consider the test negative.

During the test, the use of mobile phones or support materials such as handouts or notes is not permitted.

Students with learning disabilities and temporary or permanent impairments are encouraged to contact the dedicated office (https://site.unibo.it/studenti-con-disabilita-e-dsa/it/per-studenti) as soon as possible, in order to agree on appropriate compensatory measures. The request must be submitted in advance (15 days before the exam date) to the instructor, who will assess the adequacy of the measures, considering the educational objectives."
