TEACHING AND LEARN 1 The course provides an understanding of teaching and learning theories with application to clinical practice for occupational and physical therapy. This course is cross listed with OTH 711 and is an interprofessional collaborative course. 458
This course covers the basic principles of Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics, as well as common adverse drug reactions of medications. The students will be exposed to key categories of medications including autonomic, cardiovascular, pain and inflammatory, endocrine, neurological, anti-infective and anti-cancer, as well as key special topics. The focus will be on understanding how these medications impact medical and rehabilitation management of the patient.
This course provides an introduction to principles of imaging for the health professional including radiography, CT scans, magnetic resonance imaging, and special studies and arthrography. How findings related to imaging impact clinical decision making for patient/client management will be discussed via case studies. 2021-22 Catalog
CLINICAL EXERCISE 2 Lecture and Lab. This course is a continuation of Foundations of Clinical Exercise 1. This course will serve as a foundation for designing appropriate exercise programs for individuals with cardiopulmonary and neuromuscular issues. Elements of exercise testing and specific prescription will be addressed with focus on the role of the physical therapist in primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention and their role in exercise testing and prescription.
ISSUES 2 This course builds on Professional Issues 1 with the student exploring in more depth issues related to professional socialization including conflict management and negotiation, practice and reimbursement issues, use of substitutes, further integration of ethical decision making, and classroom teaching principles.
ISSUES 3 This course is the final course in the sequence for professional socialization and development. The focus of this course is to provide the student with content related to important state and national issues for the profession and understanding about the governance structure of the profession. The student will prepare for employment with preparation of a resume, cover letter, interview skills, a professional development plan, and exploration of advanced practice opportunities upon graduation. 2021-22 Catalog
PRACTICUM 2 In this course, students will continue the work initiated in Community Practicum 1 and focus on implementation of the community project that produces positive health & wellness outcomes in collaboration with the partner agency. While gaining experience in the specialty role of community-based provider, students will also gain experience in collecting outcomes, project management, and disseminating results of a project. This course is cross listed with OTH 819 and is an interprofessional collaborative course.
This course is the first in a sequence leading to the completion of the culminating project for the DPT curriculum. Students will develop skills in the application of high-quality evidence (research, clinical expertise and patient preferences) to physical therapy clinical practice. In addition, students will begin the doctoral project experience through a literature review and preliminary project planning. Credits: 1 461
This course is the second in a sequence that leads to the completion of a culminating project for the OTD and DPT curricula. Students will select an area of concentration from clinical practice, research, education, service, or advocacy. The student will work with a faculty advisor to develop, plan, and implement a project that will be presented at the completion of the 3rd year prior to graduation. This course is an interprofessional collaborative course. Credits: 1
MANAGEMENT 3 Lecture and lab. This course continues from Musculoskeletal Management 2 with content for examination and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions in physical therapy. Content will be provided on injuries and conditions from acute to post- rehabilitation across the lifespan. The student will review and discuss scientific evidence and theoretical rationale to support the examination and treatment approaches covered. This course will focus on advancing clinical decision making in musculoskeletal management via case studies in lecture/lab that focus on various clinical aspects, including complex management of cases. Application of examination and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions in the pediatric, older adult, women's health, occupational health and work hardening principles, measurement and fabrication of orthotic devices, special equipment in orthopedics, sports medicine, primary and secondary prevention in orthopedics, and advanced manual therapy and exercise prescription will be covered and integrated into the patient/client management process. The Guide for Physical Therapist Practice will be used as a template for terminology and classification of patient problems. PTH 827L: LAB FOR PTH 827 Credits: 0 462
MGMT 3 - ADULTS This is the second of a two-part series about physical therapy management of adults with neurological conditions. Students will participate in didactic and laboratory experiences about neurologic pathology, clinical reasoning processes that guide the examination, evaluation, and treatment of adults with neurologic dysfunction. Current theory and practice of neuro- therapeutic exercise are applied to adults diagnosed with spinal cord injury, balance dysfunction, degenerative conditions and vestibular deficits. This includes assessment and treatment of seated postural dysfunction and wheeled mobility prescription. PTH 834L: LAB FOR PTH 834 Lab for PTH 834 Credits: 0 463
