elective area <strong>of</strong> orthopaedic examination and treatment. <strong>St</strong>udent clinical per<strong>for</strong>mance will be determinedusing the OPA clinical evaluation tool. As each rotation is independent <strong>of</strong> the others, the sequencing <strong>of</strong>rotations will vary among individual students and will be based mainly on availability.OPA 5831 – OPA Clinical Rotation 11: Minimally Invasive/Arthroscopy Elective Hours: 4<strong>St</strong>udents will have an opportunity to select the focus <strong>of</strong> a full-time clinical rotation. This topic may be inan area not covered in the required rotations or may be an additional four-week in one <strong>of</strong> the previouslyattended rotations. This rotation will focus on the examination and care <strong>of</strong> patients in the designatedelective area <strong>of</strong> orthopaedic examination and treatment. <strong>St</strong>udent clinical per<strong>for</strong>mance will be determinedusing the OPA clinical evaluation tool. As each rotation is independent <strong>of</strong> the others, the sequencing <strong>of</strong>rotations will vary among individual students and will be based mainly on availability.OPA 5906 – Research II Hours: 2This course is a continuation <strong>of</strong> the process <strong>of</strong> scientific inquiry begun in Trimester 1. Concentration isgiven to developing a relevant research inquiry and clinical outcome studies. <strong>St</strong>udents have anopportunity to review relevant articles to examine the use <strong>of</strong> evidence in clinical decision-making. Theparts and process <strong>for</strong> presenting a patient case report is presented.OPA 5907 – Research III Hours: 1This course applies in<strong>for</strong>mation covered on case reports in Research II. <strong>St</strong>udents are expected to gathernecessary in<strong>for</strong>mation during the Clinical Rotations to present a clear and pr<strong>of</strong>essional case reportfollowing the guidelines given in Research II. <strong>St</strong>udents are expected to integrate related scholarlyliterature with patient management, knowledge/skills gained in the classroom as it applies to one selectedpatient examined and treated on a clinical rotation.OPA 6403E – OPA Imaging Hours: 3This course provides skills in the ordering and clinical application <strong>of</strong> diagnostic imaging tests <strong>for</strong>commonly occurring skeletal and s<strong>of</strong>t tissue dysfunctions <strong>of</strong> the spine, pelvis and extremities. The basics<strong>of</strong> MRI, CT, ultrasonography, nuclear Imaging, and special diagnostic imaging procedures such asfluoroscopy, venography, and 3-D reconstruction are covered. Special emphasis is placed on thecommunication <strong>of</strong> diagnostic findings to the supervising orthopaedist and the orthopaedic patientpopulation.PHT 5006C – Massage and S<strong>of</strong>t Tissue Palpation Hour: 1Course material emphasizes the development <strong>of</strong> skills necessary to per<strong>for</strong>m massage to the spine andextremities. Physiological and psychological effects <strong>of</strong> massage are discussed. Indications,contraindications and medicolegal aspects <strong>of</strong> massage are also discussed. <strong>St</strong>udents are instructed in thetheoretical basis <strong>for</strong> use <strong>of</strong> massage. Relevent research is discussed as well.PHT 5103 - Critical Thinking II Hour: 1This course combines instruction in clinical problem solving and critical thinking through the skills <strong>of</strong>:problem synthesis, metacognition clinical reasoning, and decision making. Patient cases are utilized todevelop these skills. These skills are especially needed <strong>for</strong> the autonomous practitioner who practices instates with direct access to Physical Therapy. The material in this course builds on the critical thinkingcourse from first trimesterPHT 5132C - Musculoskeletal I: Orthopaedics Hours: 4This course will be a presentation <strong>of</strong> the foundations <strong>of</strong> medical and physical therapy orthopaedics,including surgical and non-surgical conditions. This course will emphasize the dysfunction philosophy108
as related primarily to extremity conditions and some spinal conditions. Examination and interventionmethods will be introduced in lab session. Intervention approaches <strong>for</strong> different dysfunctions will bediscussed. This course will be designed to follow the topics discussed in the Biomechanics class andcomplement the Therapeutic Exercise course. The material will be integrated and applied in Mock Clinicthe third trimester. Examination, evaluation and intervention <strong>of</strong> the extremities and spine will be furthercovered in the fifth trimester.PHT 5133C – Musculoskeletal II: Mock Clinic Hours: 3This course will integrate the theory and practice <strong>of</strong> examination <strong>of</strong> physical therapy patients with amusculoskeletal diagnosis. Through the use <strong>of</strong> a "Mock Clinic", the student will learn and practicehistory taking during patient interview, as well as practice tests and measurements through the 18 steps <strong>of</strong>a musculoskeletal examination. This course will build upon examination techniques learned in Skills &Procedures, Therapeutic Exercise I and Musculoskeletal I, as well as applying the in<strong>for</strong>mation instructedin Anatomy, Biomechanics, Pathology, Massage, and Physical Modalities. From the in<strong>for</strong>mation gatheredin the interview and physical examination, the student will exercise diagnostic skills, practice prognosticand intervention prescribing skills, and document impairment lists, long-term and short-term goals, andintervention plans.PHT 5134C - Musculoskeletal III: Advanced Extremity Examination, Hours: 3Evaluation and Treatment (E1)Course emphasizes the interpretation <strong>of</strong> basic science knowledge and integration with basic clinical skillsneeded to complete a differential evaluation <strong>of</strong> extremity dysfunction and proceed to treatment.Knowledge and principles <strong>of</strong> functional anatomy, biomechanics, and pathology are presented as anintegrated concept related to clinical cases. The clinical content <strong>of</strong> the course includes differentialexamination, with special emphasis on palpatory techniques such as end-feel, and joint mobility testingand treatment. Critical thinking and problem solving are emphasized with specific clinical cases.PHT 5135C - Musculoskeletal IV: Advanced Spinal Examination, Hours: 3Evaluation and Treatment (S1)Course material emphasizes the development <strong>of</strong> clinical knowledge and skill necessary to complete adifferential spine examination and to plan and carry out effective interventions <strong>for</strong> spinal impairments.General principles <strong>of</strong> spinal functional anatomy, tissue and spinal joint biomechanics and pathology arepresented as well. Spine examination procedures covered in this course include structural assessment,active range <strong>of</strong> motion, palpation <strong>for</strong> position, condition and mobility (PIVM), neurovascular screening,and history taking and interpretation. This course will focus on the principles and techniques necessaryto per<strong>for</strong>m a competent physical therapy examination and intervention program <strong>for</strong> all spinal regions(except upper cervical spine) including thrust and non-thrust manipulations. When students return fromtheir 6 th trimester full-time clinical internships, the 7 th trimester curriculum will continue to review andinclude more advanced physical therapy manipulation (thrust and non-thrust) technique optionsPHT 5140C – Pediatric Physical Therapy Hour: 2The normal development <strong>of</strong> gross motor skills will be reviewed and contrasted with abnormaldevelopment that occurs in the presence <strong>of</strong> various conditions and pathologies. The etiology and clinicalfeatures <strong>of</strong> common pediatric disorders not previously covered will be discussed. Basic methods <strong>of</strong>evaluation, assessment, clinical decision making, goal setting, and treatment in a variety <strong>of</strong> settings willbe discussed. This course will include videotape patient analysis and laboratory experiences.PHT 5143C - Neuromuscular I: Concepts and Evaluation Hours: 3This course will examine the theoretical basis <strong>for</strong> evaluation and treatment <strong>of</strong> neurologic disorders.Historical perspectives will be explored with emphasis on current theories <strong>of</strong> motor control, motor109
