---

 

Area:	School of Occupational Therapy
Credits:	25.0
Contact Hours:	4.0
Lecture:	1 x 2 Hours Weekly
Laboratory:	1 x 2 Hours Weekly
Syllabus:	Investigative and practical approaches to the anatomical structure, function and integrity of the head, trunk, pelvis and lower limbs involving an integrated study of the peripheral nervous systems, osteology, arthrology and muscle function with biomechanical and kinesiological principles. Application within an occupational context.
Unit Outcomes:	Upon completion of this unit students will be able to - Identify and describe human neuro-musculo-skeletal and surface anatomy of the head, trunk and lower extremities from a 3 dimensional perspective. Apply biomechanical and kinesiological principles toanalyse and measure normal movement of basic head, trunk and lower limb activities used in daily occupations. Explain the actions and functions of neuro-musculo-skeletal structures of the head, trunk and lower limb.
