CFS-6200 INTEGRATIVE PATHOPHYSIOLOGY & BIOMECHANICS IN HEALTH CARE 1
This course provides a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between biomechanics, homeostasis, and pathophysiology in healthcare. Students will focus on upper extremity anatomy and concepts of neuromusculoskeletal pathophysiology. Immunological concepts focused on pathogen presentation and recovery of homeostasis are discussed. Concepts of genetic transformation and neoplasia are considered. Participants will develop critical thinking skills to differentiate between normal and abnormal states, predict the impact of pathology on homeostasis, and apply biomechanical principles to the spine and joints. Cases studies are used to develop a holistic perspective on the patient presentation and the biological factors influencing health and healing. The course also includes content specific to the structured approach of PICO in clinical decision-making processes.
