Obiettivi

Acquisire le conoscenze fondamentali di fisiologia umana, sviluppare la capacità di identificare i principali vizi di postura e apprendere le metodologie di cura pertinenti, al fine di applicare un approccio critico e basato su evidenze nell'analisi e nella gestione dei disturbi posturali.
Gli obiettivi specifici, formulati secondo i Descrittori di Dublino, sono i seguenti:

  1. Conoscenza e Comprensione:
    Conoscere i fondamenti fisiologici che sottendono la postura e i suoi vizi, insieme a una chiara comprensione delle metodologie diagnostiche e terapeutiche per la loro gestione.
  2. Applicazione di Conoscenza e Comprensione:
    Sviluppare la capacità di applicare le conoscenze teoriche per identificare e analizzare criticamente i vizi di postura in contesti clinici simulati
  3. Autonomia di Giudizio:
    valutare autonomamente le informazioni relative ai vizi di postura, formulando giudizi critici e basati su evidenze per l'inquadramento e la scelta delle strategie di intervento.
  4. Abilità Comunicative:
    Comunicare in modo chiaro ed efficace le informazioni sui vizi di postura, sia con specialisti che con non esperti, utilizzando un linguaggio appropriato e comprensibile.
  5. Capacità di Apprendimento:
    sviluppare le competenze necessarie per l'apprendimento continuo e autonomo nel campo della postura e dei suoi disturbi, utilizzando diverse fonti e aggiornando costantemente le proprie conoscenze

Contenuti sintetici

Fisiologia della postura, principali alterazioni della postura, diagnosi ed approccio terapeutico

Aims

Acquire fundamental knowledge of human physiology, develop the ability to diagnose major posture vices and learn relevant treatment methodologies in order to apply a critical and evidence-based approach in the analysis and management of postural disorders.

The specific objectives, formulated according to the Dublin Descriptors, are as follows:

  1. Knowledge and Understanding:
    know the physiological foundations underlying posture and its vices, along with a clear understanding of diagnostic and therapeutic methodologies for their management.

  2. Application of Knowledge and Understanding:
    develop the ability to apply theoretical knowledge to identify and critically analyze posture vices in simulated clinical settings.

  3. Autonomy of Judgment:
    independently evaluate information related to posture vices, making critical and evidence-based judgments for framing and choosing intervention strategies.

  4. Communication Skills:
    communicate information about posture vices clearly and effectively with both specialists and non-experts, using appropriate and understandable language.

  5. Learning Skills:
    develop the skills necessary for continuous independent learning in the field of posture and its disorders, using a variety of sources and constantly updating their knowledge
