Course history

Introduction

Physiotherapists must be able to assess physical capacity, and to plan, implement and evaluate measures that are intended to promote physical condition and functioning. These tasks require knowledge about the body’s normal physiological processes at rest and work, and knowledge about the body’s ability to adapt, i.e. how the body’s physiology and structure adapt to various external stimuli and different types of strain and loads. The course emphasises the relationship between structure and function in the cardiovascular system, respiratory system and endocrine system, as well as the interaction between organ systems and the body’s ability to adapt.

Required preliminary courses

The student must have been admitted to the study programme.

Learning outcomes

After completing the course, the student should have the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student can

  • describe anatomical structures related to the cardiovascular system and respiratory system
  • describe the relationship between structure and function in the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, and explain the interaction between these systems
  • describe the mechanisms and functions of the digestive system and the endocrine system
  • describe the mechanisms for governing and controlling different bodily processes and how different bodily systems cooperate to regulate bodily functions
  • explain healing mechanisms after tissue damage
  • explain the mechanisms of the body’s temperature regulation
  • explain energy metabolism and basic nutritional physiology
  • explain important testing principles in exercise physiology
  • describe anatomical and physiological changes across the lifespan

Skills

The student can

  • explain how nutrition and physical activity affect physiological energy metabolism
  • explain physiological processes at rest and during physical activity, as well as the body’s ability to adapt to different types of strains and loads

Teaching and learning methods

The work and teaching methods include self-study, group work, seminars, lectures and practical skills training.

Examiners

Student BEST – Bedre og systematisk teamtrening er et undervisningopplegg i samarbeid mellom sykepleier-, radiografi-, bioingeniør- og paramedisinutdanningen, spesialisering i anestesisykepleie (master) ved OsloMet og medisinutdanningen Universitetet i Oslo. Læringsprogrammet anvender simulering i team og brukes som treningsmetode i mottak og stabilisering av traumer. Hovedfokus er kommunikasjon og samhandling i tverrprofesjonell gruppe.

Undervisningsopplegget ligger i 3. studieår og studentene vil følge forkunnskapskravet til de andre emnene -

Bestått 1. år, SYKK/SYKP2100, SYKK/SYKPPRA21 og SYKK/SYKPPRA30 - for å kunne delta her.*

* For kull 2022 ved OsloMet er det bestått 1. år, SYKK/SYKPPRA20, SYKK/SYKP1060, SYKK/SYKP2000 og SYKK/SYKPPRA30.

Course contact person

Etter fullført emne har studenten følgende læringsutbytte definert i ferdigheter og generell kompetanse:

Ferdigheter

Studenten

  • kan anvende faglig kunnskap for å bidra til samhandling i et tverrfaglig team

Generell kompetanse Studenten

  • kan vurdere egen profesjonsrolle i en tverrfaglig sammenheng
