PTAT 1800 - Neurology

Credits: 3
Students examine multiple pathologies of the nervous system including stroke, demyelinating diseases, spinal cord injury, Parkinson’s Disease, cerebral palsy, and traumatic brain injuries (TBI). In addition, students contrast normal structures and function of the nervous system, including motor control centers of the brain and spinal tracts, to a nervous system with specific impairments. Students develop skills to assess, treat, and manage the neurologically impaired patient based on clinical signs and symptoms of neurological disorders.

Prerequisite: Completion of PTAT 2970.
