Physiotherapy

Exercise Physiology. • Bioenergetics: aerobic metabolism, anaerobic lactacid and a-lactacid metabolism. • Cardio-circulatory, respiratory and metabolic adjustments and adaptations to physical exercise. Components of Physical Fitness (maximum aerobic power, anaerobic capacity and power, strength and muscular endurance, flexibility, body composition). Functional Evaluation of Fitness. Functional age related decay. Exercise as prevention and therapy in elderly people. Neurological and physiatric classifications of the lesion levels of different disorders (spinal cord injury, cerebral palsy). The Paralympic athletes.

Cardiovascular physiology. Physio-pathology of movement.

The student is provided on the specific topics with material in the form of scientific papers and handouts produced by the teacher and documents produced by specific scientific societies and by national and international sports organizations. The student who wanted to deepen can use books of Exercise Physiology such as: Exercise Physiology: Integrating Theory and Application by William J. Kraemer Ph.D., Steven J. Fleck PhD, et al. | Publisher Lippincott Williams & Wilkins | Aug 23, 2016

Lectures in which the active participation of students is particularly encouraged.

Attendance to the course is mandatory for all teaching modules. In order to take the exam, it is essential to attend at least 75% of the lesson hours of each module.

Lectures in which the active participation of students is particularly encouraged. The teacher presents the topic of the lesson with slides designed according to a logical scheme that favors the provision of notions in a preparatory way. During the presentation, the teacher questions the learners on topics of the single slide in order to review concepts of anatomy, physiology or pathophysiology of the nervous system that are considered acquired in previous teachings.

During the three-year period, students are provided with the opportunity to explore topics of particular interest for the education of students on the Physiotherapy degree course, both through participation in conferences and congresses and through the planning of specific elective educational activities
