Traumatology is a field of activity in continuous development, which is important for the physiotherapist because of the high percentage of patients it represents. Therefore, it is essential to have full and up-to-date Physiotherapy training in which students complement and relate pathological knowledge to the possibilities of action in Physiotherapy.
No prerequisites are required.
- Understand and know how to apply the applicable physiotherapeutic procedures to the pathology of the musculoskeletal system.
- Know the diagnostic process in Physiotherapy, establishing appropriate therapeutic objectives in the physiotherapeutic approaches to traumatic pathology in the musculoskeletal system.
- Know how to design a physiotherapy intervention plan based on research and scientific evidence.
- Develop the skills necessary to intervene in the process of promotion and health prevention.
- Maintain an attitude of motivation and self-improvement throughout the learning process.
- Develop the skills necessary to work together and communicate verbally as well as in writing.
