Introduction

RHEUMATOLOGY BLOCK

The subject of Rheumatology establishes a basis of knowledge of the osteoarticular pathology of non - traumatic etiology that is susceptible from Physiotherapy. Throughout this course students will acquire an overview and general knowledge that will facilitate relationships with other health professionals, providing a comprehensive point of view from the patient.

TRAUMATOLOGY BLOCK

Study of traumatic illnesses and overuse conditions, which affect the musculoskeletal system

Pre-course requirements

RHEUMATOLOGY BLOCK

Knowledge of anatomy and function of the musculoskeletal system.

Objectives

RHEUMATOLOGY BLOCK

- Acquire theoretical knowledge of non-traumatic osteoarticular pathology of origin in the field of Physiotherapy.
- Know how to apply the diagnostic techniques commonly used in the musculoskeletal system.
- Know the most frequently used drug therapies in rheumatic pathology. - Understand the therapeutic approach to the medical illnesses in the musculoskeletal system.
- Know the most common surgical techniques in surgery of the musculoskeletal system.
- Become familiar with the related medical terminology.

TRAUMATOLOGY BLOCK

- Know the mechanisms that can cause injury to the tissues that make up the Musculoskeletal System
- How does our body respond to both acute and chronic injuries?
- What means we have at our disposal to promote the healing of injuries, which affect our musculoskeletal system

Learning outcomes of the subject

 

 

RHEUMATOLOGY BLOCK

Students should understand the theoretical bases of the more frequent osteoarticular pathologies of origin in the field of non-traumatic Physiotherapy.

Know how to apply diagnostic techniques commonly used in the musculoskeletal system.

Know the most frequently used drug therapies in rheumatic illnesses.

TRAUMATOLOGY BLOCK

Familiarize oneself with the terms and meanings of the words that define the different lesions of the Musculoskeletal System.

How are they classified and what criteria is followed to assess their severity, prognosis and results of different treatments?

Which treatments are most commonly used to repair lesions of the musculoskeletal system.

What factors influence healing and muscle tissue?

Why do some injuries deserve surgical treatment and what are its advantages and disadvantages?

What materials are most useful for osteosynthesis? What precautions should be taken in the postoperative period?
