This subject builds on the principles introduced in BM1041 Anatomy and Physiology
for Physiotherapy 1. This subject will comprise a detailed study of the gross anatomy
of the lower limb. Physiological processes and anatomical structure will be studied
for the cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, renal, reproductive systems
and endocrinology as relevant to physiotherapy. The emphasis will be on gaining an
integrated understanding of the human body through practical sessions, including the
study of human cadaveric material, and functional and clinical case-studies to facilitate
the integration of material and the correlation to practice.
Learning Outcomes
- to identify and describe in detail the structure (anatomy) and function (physiology)
of the cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive and endocrine
systems;
- to identify and describe in detail the musculoskeletal related structures and functions
of the lower limb;
- to critically apply anatomical and physiological knowledge to physiotherapy practice.
