Learning outcomes
The course is designed as a theoretical one, based on the fundamentals of anatomy and physiology of the nervous system. This knowledge is a prerequisite for completing the clinical course. It introduces students to basic functional neurological systems and their disorders. Providing basic knowledge of causes, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of nervous system diseases. The aim of the course is to understand the functioning of the nervous system, including special examinations in neurology, which are a prerequisite for the application of concepts and methods of physiotherapy on neurophysiological basis.
Expertise: The student is able to describe the basic mechanisms of neurological disorders, and is well versed in professional terminology. Can explain the nature of motor, sensory, extrapyramidal system disorders, spinal syndromes, autonomic system dysfunction, intracranial hypertension syndrome, meningeal syndrome. Professional skills: The student is well versed in general neurology, can apply the acquired knowledge to physiotherapeutic concepts, methods and procedures that use in their application and diagnostics neurophysiological basis. General eligibility: The student is able to practically investigate reflexes, carry out the therapy by the method of sister Kenny and investigate the surface and deep sensations.
