OTH 751 - Anatomy/Kinesiology II Second course of a two-part sequence in Functional Anatomy and Kinesiology. Provides a detailed study of the science of human movement in the context of activity from biomechanical, neuromuscular, and anatomical perspectives. Students will learn bony landmarks and the musculoskeletal system of the human body underlying occupational therapy assessment and intervention, with a focus on the forearm, hand, head, neck and lower extremities. Includes principles and methodology of body mechanics, movement analysis, muscle strength testing, and joint range of motion testing. Students will learn muscle palpation, manual muscle testing, range of motion, and motion analysis. Models will be used to facilitate understanding musculoskeletal anatomy and assessment and its relationship to occupational performance. The use of detailed activity analysis, case stories and problem-based learning will introduce clinical signs and symptoms associated with biomechanical disease and injury for integration into occupational performance. Students will demonstrate information literacy by recognizing the need for information and the ability to locate, evaluate, and effectively use necessary information as it relates to clients and occupational therapy.
