Learning outcomes of the course unit
  • The students
    - gain an insight into the biomechanics of the human body and its static and dynamic movement sequences.
    - are familiar with the most important methods for analysing the functionality of the musculoskeletal system and individual body components.
    - are able to evaluate static and dynamic force effects and have the knowledge to dimension artificial implants through strength analyses.
    - are familiar with the most common implants and their implantation methods.
    - learn the most important implant materials and their applications, positioning and fixation.
    - know the basic planning steps for implanting artificial replacement joints and organs.
    - gain an insight into the principles and methods of orthopaedic and neuromusculoskeletal rehabilitation.
    - know the most important analytical procedures for assessing and quantifying successful rehabilitation.
    - know the basic functioning of passive rehabilitation techniques (wheelchair, orthoses, etc.).
    - know the basic functioning of active rehabilitation techniques (robotics, exoskeleton, etc.).
