Aims and Objectives

Compétences à acquérir : INITIATION A LA KINE  RESPIRATOIRE

 By the end of the courses, the students have to be able to :

  • Observe, feel(get) and measure the lung ventilation(breakdown) of a healthy subject (Biometrics of the thorax and the vertebral column, E.F.R)To understand(include) the ventilatoire mechanics and to estimate from the results(profits) spirométriques the possible ventilatoires disorders(confusions) ( restrictive, obstructive and mixed syndrome)T
  • Understand(include) the ventilatoire mechanics and to estimate from the results(profits) spirométriques the possible ventilatoires disorders(confusions) ( restrictive, obstructive and mixed syndrome)
  • Analyse the real patients'condition
  • Be able to stand back to judge his/her own work to improve dramatically their handling techniques
Description

The Human biometrics respiratory classes are based on the students' willingness to combine theory with practical experience.

The training is made up of:

 - Basic theory knowledge about the following subjects: Knowledges ostéologiques, myologiques and physiological of the respiratory system, the notions of ventilatoire mechanics, purposes and basic principles of an index card(form) of coverage(care) of a patient and specific terminology.

 -  Practical exercises (individually or in groups) whose aims are:

- to be able to learn properly, to evaluate et to evaluate oneself

- to analyse spontaneous observation

- to inculcate a specific case history "ROM"  to treat the patients

- to try to repeat and reproduce the handling techniques taught during the classes 

- to compare what was observed during the real handling experiences and, perhaps, to change the notions learnt until then

The exercises done during the classes (method Paul Dotte) could be found as schemes in the reference book. The students will get an exhaustive list of the things they must know.

 

-  Reflexive exercises: the students need to stand back to judge their own work as far as their  training courses are concerned. Thanks to the process of self-criticism links between theory and practical exercises could be established and the students are thus able to improve their own handling.

Teaching and Learning MethodsLectures
Tutorials

Theory courses and practical training (to observe and to combine theory and patents , to learn the specific gesture to adopt and to learn from clinical cases)

Assessment MethodsOral examinations

The certificative and formative appraisal is based on the student’s ability to think about his/her future handling.

Each student will be asked to reproduce handling exercises, receiving specific orders and instructions.

The certificative consists of the following appraisal :  oral exam and practical exercises.
