This module forms part of the BSc (Hons) Rehabilitation Science programme at Keele University, an innovative, integrated programme that prepares the graduate for further study or employment in health and social care settings. The module introduces the normal anatomy and physiology of the human musculoskeletal and other body systems (excluding the neurological, cardiovascular and respiratory systems) and provides a basic introduction to movement science.The programme reflects the shifting emphasis away from increasing the quantity of care towards enhancing the quality of care, moving away from a medical disease model towards a health model based on personal responsibility and prevention of disease.
Aims
To introduce the normal anatomy and physiology of the human body, focusing on the musculoskeletal system. To provide a basic introduction to movement science in the healthy adult (musculoskeletal).To introduce terminology associated with movement science (musculoskeletal).
Intended Learning Outcomes
describe the anatomy and physiology of the human musculoskeletal system;: 1,2,describe, in outline, other body systems e.g. the digestive system and endocrine system (excluding the neurological, cardiovascular and respiratory systems);: 1,recognise and begin to analyse normal anatomical presentation and physiological function in the musculoskeletal system utilising the principles of movement science;: 1,2,explain the relevance and role of physiological measurements (musculoskeletal and other body systems, excluding the neurological, cardiovascular and respiratory systems).: 1,2,
