Course Description

This course is the first in a series of four, which applies the Patient Management Model to musculoskeletal conditions associated with the hip. Examination, evaluation, diagnosis, prognosis, intervention and outcome assessment for the hip is linked with diagnostic imaging and conservative and surgical management. Interventions integrate joint and soft tissue manual therapy techniques with therapeutic exercise. Emphasis is placed on clinical decision-making and evidenced-based practice in individuals with orthopedic conditions. Exercise applications that are utilized throughout lifespan that address identified impairments; activity and participation limitations are emphasized. Students will apply clinical decision-making strategies to practice, design, modify and progress exercise programs with proper biomechanical alignment and proper muscle balance for optimal performance. This course will be given in a flipped hybridlearning format consisting of traditional face-to-face classroom time, asynchronous on-line video lectures, integrated clinical experiences, as well as face-to-face classroom time for active learning seminars for higher-level activities to solve problems and apply what has been learned outside the classroom to new situations. The active learning strategies facilitate “thinking on your feet.” Students will need to prepare before a class session and then apply what was learned in face-to-face class meetings as well as the video lectures.
