Bearing in mind the role of the physiotherapist in the professional field, it is essential that the student has a first practical contact from the beginning of their studies. The syllabus is distributed in different thematic blocks and provides the student with the manual skills, the theoretical knowledge and, fundamentally, practical skills necessary for the subsequent development of other more specific techniques that will be acquired throughout the degree. The subject of Valuation is distributed in two subjects (Valoracion 1 and Valoracion 2), corresponding to the contents taught in the first and second semester respectively. In Assessment 1, the exploration of the upper extremities will be developed: palpation, joint and muscular balance. In Assessment 2, the same procedures will be applied to the lower extremities and the spine. Likewise, the student will learn a battery of specific assessment tests that will be very useful during the patient's exploration.
Not specified.
Students:
- Understand the stages of the diagnostic procedure in Physiotherapy.
- Understand the theoretical basis of assessment procedures in Physiotherapy.
- Understand the internationally recognized standards and identify the international validation tools used in the functional evaluation of Physiotherapy.
- Apply appropriate functional evaluation procedures related to the assessment of muscle strength, range of motion, functional capabilities and vital capacity.
- Identify the functional alterations and disabilities in the processes related to Physiotherapy care, while identifying the needs of the patient / user in order to establish priority in the health care attention during the recovery process.
