Requisites
Pre-requisite: BIO1206 and SES2104 and Students must be enrolled in the following Program: BSEH
Rationale
This course introduces the Bachelor of Sport and Exercise (Honours) (Clinical Exercise Physiology) students to clinical conditions for clinical populations within the child to adult age range. The course will build upon knowledge and practical skills established in earlier courses including SES2104 to develop clinical knowledge and skills taught and assessed during this course that are requirements of the professional accreditation set down by the professional body, Exercise and Sports Science Australia, as standards for an Accredited Exercise Physiologist.
Synopsis
This course provides an introduction to the common conditions that affect individuals from childhood to adulthood. This course will investigate the epidemiology, aetiology and pathophysiology of major cardiovascular, pulmonary, musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, renal, mental and cancer conditions commonly found in clinical populations from children to adult. Appropriate knowledge and skills will provide expert exercise assessment and testing, prescription of exercise interventions, and monitoring of a client's progression throughout the prescribed exercise programs. Additionally, this course will enable students to build a resource of fundamental and generic skills that underpin an Accredited Exercise Physiologist.
This course contains a mandatory residential school at the Ipswich campus for external students and mandatory on-campus workshops for on-campus students.
Objectives
On successful completion of this course students should be able to:
- Investigate the epidemiology, aetiology and pathophysiology of the major cardiovascular, pulmonary, musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, renal, mental and cancer conditions commonly found in clinical populations from children to adults.
- Describe and analyse assessment, design, delivery and evaluation of clinical exercise interventions for client goals and outcomes.
- Interpret the impact of medical interventions/treatments in relation to exercise and functional capacities.
- Prepare and interpret written professional reports (medical and allied health referral) and critically evaluate the role of multi-discipline interventions on client outcomes.
