Offer 3 with catalog number 6023158FNW for working students in the 1st semester at a (F) Master - specialised level.
This course requires a good topographic and functional basic knowledge of the musculoskeltal anatomy.
Based on a profound basic knowledge of anatomy, this course intends to focus in detail on the anatomy of limbs, thrunk and neck in relation to the knowledge of joint kinematics and with special impact on musculoskeletal manual therapy.
instructions and demo's will be provided on point-carré
additional web sources may be used to support the dissection excercises
General description
Learning objective: ‘the master has a profound knowledge and comprehension in the anatomy, physiology and biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system. This allows him to evaluate normal and disturbed functioning’.
Specific competences: profound and detailed knowledge and comprehension of its clinical relevance
The student has a detailed 3-dimesional knowledge of the human musculoskeletal anatomy (myology, peripheral neuro-anatomy, vascularisation). He pays special attention to human anatomical variation and variability, including anomalies. He has a special interest in its clinical relevance for musculoskeletal rehabilitation.
The student recognizes the dissected anatomical structures
The student can differentiate between different anatomical structures
The student knows the morphological features, the function and the vascularisation and innervation of every dissected and visible anatomical structure
The student is able to explain the function of anatomical structures based on its topographical representation
The student is able to demonstrate the interrelationship between muscles, vessels and nerves based of the dissected anatomical structures
The student is able to comment and demonstrate specific topographical regions on the dissected specimen
The student is able to link the dissected and visible anatomical structures to his profound and pre-existing knowledge of osteology and arthrology.
The student is able to link the dissected and visible anatomical structures to his clinical knowledge and experience of musculoskeletal rehabilitation
The student is able to reflect on the impact of specific musculoskeletal rehabilitation techniques based on e profound knowledge and comprehension of macroscopic human anatomy
General description of competences
Learning objective 6: ‘ the master in MT is able to interpret medical findings with respect to musculoskeletal therapy’
And learning goal !: ‘ the master in MT is able to interpret the results of clinical applied research in daily clinical musculoskeletal rehabilitation practice
Specific description of competence:
The student is able to link the visible anatomical structures to his clinical experience of musculoskeletal rehabilitation practice
General description of competence
Learning objective 12: ‘ the master in MT thinks critical about his own clinical care tacking’
The students can reflect critically about the impact of specific musculoskeletal treatment techniques based on a profound knowledge and understanding of macroscopic human anatomy
The final grade is composed based on the following categories:
Oral Exam determines 100% of the final mark.
Within the Oral Exam category, the following assignments need to be completed:
See internal anatomy lab regulations (provided to the student on study-platform) which has to be submitted in hard copy after signing.
the students will be scored on their interactive groupswork during dissection courses (see attitude goal of this course)
The subscore(s) of group or individual tasks and exercises organised during the academic year, which for content or organisational reasons cannot be reorganized, will continue to be part of the overall final score for this course.
