PTA 265L implements the clinical application of various electrotherapy modalities. By using lab simulation and role playing of actual clinical situations the students will use information from the PTA 265 lecture to problem solve, think analytically and modify parameters as it relates to observed responses and conditions presented. The application of treatment procedures as set out in the mock treatment plans will require the use of appropriate communication skills. Approved terminology from the APTA: Guide to Physical Therapy Practice and the APTA: Electrotherapeutic Terminology in Physical Therapy will be required for documentation of treatment parameters and patient reaction to applied electrical interventions. |
