Practical Interpretation of Physiological Tests
1655-Lek22WYBTES-J
During “Physiological tests interpretations” tutorials Student learns about and performs basic physiological tests evaluating human body functional state. Particular emphasis is placed on the cardiovascular system, acoustic system as well as musculature. Stress tests (exercise tests) results interpretation allows to determine the effect of different types of exercise on cardiovascular system. To assess the impact of exercise on musculature and screen individuals for risk of injury and / or a dysfunctional or performance-limiting movement pattern Students learns Functional Movement Screen testing. In addition, during the course, the student learns about the methods used to assess the activity of the autonomic nervous system and the respiratory system (bodyplethysmography). Since the assessment of auditory functions is crucial in the differentiation of nervous, auditory and balance system disorders Student is introduced with basic methods of auditory system evaluation methods.
