Clinical Kinesiology II

Catalog description

Pre-requisites: TEFI 7011. This course is a continuation of Clinical Kinesiology I. It deals with the study of human motion, which includes kinematics and kinetics required for the analysis of normal and abnormal movement. Anatomical, biomechanical, and physiological principles are applied in the analysis of motion of the appendicular system. The course also addresses common deviations from normal structure and function seen in physical therapy practice related to the musculoskeletal system of the extremities. Kinematics and kinetics of gait are also included. Web-enhanced learning and supervised laboratory experiences are used.
