Current Teaching Responsibilities in the DPT Program

FALL PT 703 Foundational Sciences III 3 CR This course is the third in a series of basic science courses for physical therapists that lay a foundation for the patient management courses. Students will review the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and medical management for selected pathologies. Additional emphasis will be placed on the impact of pharmacology and medical imaging on physical therapy management. Specific course content includes selected pathologies relevant to pediatric and neurologic rehabilitation settings.

PT 722/ 722A Neurological Rehabilitation I with lab 3 CR This course is the first of two courses that review the fundamentals of neuroscience as relates to neurologic function/dysfunction, including motor control and motor learning, normal/abnormal control of movement, clinical presentation and medical management of common neurologic diagnoses, as well as evaluation and intervention techniques for patients with neurological dysfunction requiring physical therapy intervention. Emphasis is placed upon the analysis of subjective and objective patient data and current research to evaluate, diagnose, and develop a physical therapy plan of care as relates to simple neurological diagnoses.

PT 601 Foundations I 4 CR Guest Lecturer for Embryology content (2 hours) This course is the first in a series of basic science courses for physical therapists that lay a foundation for the patient management courses. Students will review the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and medical management for selected pathologies. Additional emphasis will be placed on the impact of pharmacology and medical imaging on physical therapy management. Specific course content will include mechanisms of cellular injury and repair, tissue healing, immunology, infection and other selected pathologies relevant to initial clinical experiences.

SPRING PT 725/ 725A Neurological Rehabilitation II with lab 3 CR

7 Thomas, RMT -CV

This course is the second of two courses that reviews the fundamentals of neuroscience as relates to neurologic function/dysfunction, including motor control and motor learning, normal/abnormal control of movement, clinical presentation and medical management of common neurologic diagnoses, as well as evaluation and intervention techniques for patients with neurological dysfunction requiring physical therapy intervention. Emphasis is placed upon the analysis of subjective and objective patient data and current research to evaluate, diagnose, and develop a physical therapy plan of care as relates to complex neurological diagnoses. This course includes the Spring Neuro Clinic, a 6 weekly sessions experience with patient volunteers and supervised SPT examination and intervention.

PT 745 Special Topics 3 CR Guest Lecturer for Peripheral Neuropathy and Diabetes (3 hours lecture & lab) This course focuses on both knowledge and related skills needed for working with special populations. The topical areas include, but are not limited to women’s and men’s health, orthotics and prosthetics, work hardening, vestibular rehab, lymphedema, wounds and burns with an emphasis on a multidisciplinary approach to examination, evaluation, and intervention.

PT 612/ 612A Basic Examination and Evaluation with lab 3 CR Guest Lecturer for Neurological Exam (6 hours) This course introduces the student to the patient/client management concepts from The Guide to Physical Therapist Practice. Principles and application of systems review and basic examination techniques that are applicable to a variety of patient populations are learned. Emphasis is placed on differential diagnosis through clinical decision-making by integrating basic sciences of anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, and pathology with analysis and synthesis of subjective and objective patient data. The students learn upper and lower quarter screening examination techniques for musculoskeletal dysfunctions. Students develop examination skills on various patient populations in the classroom and clinic.

SUMMER PT 702 Foundational Science II 3 CR Guest Lecturer for Embryology content (6 hours) This course is the second in a series of basic science courses for physical therapists that lay a foundation for the patient management courses. Students will review the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and medical management for selected pathologies. Additional emphasis will be placed on the impact of pharmacology and medical imaging on physical therapy management. Specific course content will include selected pathologies relevant to the musculoskeletal system and acute care.

PT 875-10 Physical Therapy Electives – the Summer Neuro Clinic 1 CR The Neuro Clinic is an elective course that focuses on advanced practice working with a variety of patients with neurological dysfunction. It will build upon the foundational knowledge and skills the student has developed specifically through PT 722 and 725 as well as in all courses in the program to facilitate optimal, wholistic patient care. In addition to practice refinement in examination, evaluation, treatment planning, implementation, progression and refinement,

8 Thomas, RMT -CV students will gain experience in treating more than one patient per class session and become responsible for time management with patient interaction as well as meeting documentation deadline. Students will have the opportunity to refine ongoing professional communication while working as a lead student therapist as well as in a supportive role.
