7. Consistently demonstrate professional behavior and respect for faculty, peers and cadaveric

materials throughout the course. (Affective: Responding)

8. Recognize genetic influence on anatomical structure and describe the influence of gene alleles on

anatomical structure. (SRE 7A) (Cognitive: Knowledge)

Overarching goals:

At the end of the course, students are expected to have an adequate working knowledge of anatomy to

enable them to:

1. Apply and integrate anatomical knowledge of the body in advanced course work in the

professional curriculum.

2. Apply anatomical knowledge in clinical settings in order to adequately assess the source of

impairment, functional limitations, and develop an appropriate intervention program for the client.

3. Recognize the range of normal variation in gross anatomical structures and be able to utilize this

information during clinical examination and evaluation of clients.

Outline of Content and Assigned Instructor:

See attached course schedule.

Dr. Jeno is the primary lecturer with occasional lectures by Dr. Schindler. Both faculty members are in labs.

Content relating to upper extremity, lower extremity, arthrology, head, neck, trunk, pelvis and perineum are

covered throughout the course.

Description of Teaching Methods and Learning Experiences:

Lecture - traditional lecture with active learning and functional application of knowledge

Laboratory - lab consists of cadaver dissection, introduction to imaging, dry lab experiences with case studies

Discussion– case study presentations, small group discussions with teaching assistants to review content and

prepare for upcoming examinations, active learning with dry lab activities

Information is presented in lecture, laboratory, and discussion format. Independent learning is expected

throughout the course in an effort to promote life-long learning in the anatomical sciences and their application

to patient care practices. The laboratory portion of the course requires dissection and study of human cadaveric

specimens working in groups of 4 students. Clinical case presentations prepared and presented by the students

are used to enhance the learning experience in the laboratory. Discussion sessions allow the students to

interact in small groups with teaching assistants. This allows for the opportunity for individual and group

learning utilizing methods that can be tailored to the needs of the specific students. Group discussion and

tutorial opportunities enhance the learning opportunities for the students.

Methods of Evaluation:

GRADING:

A 92% - 100%

B 84% - 91%

C 76% - 83%

Failure 75% or below

**Passing requires a grade of C or better for the course. Grades are determined on a total point basis. To

be eligible to take the final exam, cumulative written exam score must be above the 70% level. The

expectation is that every student in the course passes with a score higher than 80% as failure to master the

foundational information in this course has the potential to impact success in future classes and

professional practice.

SAMPLE EXAM QUESTIONS

PT 422 Anatomy for Physical Therapy

The format of exams remains similar throughout the semester. The final exam is a similar format

but computer graded. Each exam includes matching, short answer and clinical questions. There may also

be multiple choice, true/false, and perhaps diagrams or pictures. The exam may have other components as

deemed necessary by the instructor. You will be notified in advance of changes to the format.

Be advised that lecture and laboratory portions of this course are intimately tied together.

Structures identified and discussed in laboratory will appear on the lecture exams and lecture material will

appear on the laboratory exams. Independent learning is expected throughout this course. Material from

the textbook which relates to the lecture content is also appropriate for testing. Clinical relevance of

lecture material and examples are provided in your text and will be provided in lecture when possible.

This material is also subject to testing.

Many of the questions on the exams will be clinical format similar to the type of questions that you

will encounter on your National Exam.

FORMAT EXAMPLES

Multiple Choice

With spinal cord damage at the level of C2, what function will be lost?

A) regulation of blood pressure

B) regulation of heart rate

C) function of muscles of speech

D) function of respiration muscles

True/False

________The kidney is a retroperitoneal structure.

________The deltoid ligament of the ankle is frequently damaged with eversion sprains.

ago.

a. What nerve(s) may have been damaged resulting in this weakness?

b. List the muscles that perform dorsiflexion.

c. What other motions would you suspect would be absent or weakness due to dysfunction of the

nerve(s)?

2. A patient is referred for strengthening of the upper extremity following an Ulnar Nerve tear at the

elbow.

a. What muscles will not be functional?

b. What actions will be weakened? Which will be absent?

3. What stabilization will be required to test the strength of the quadriceps muscle group?

4. If your patient is standing and you ask them to extend their trunk, what muscles will they be utilizing to

accomplish this task?

These are examples of actual test questions, however the entire matching question is not included

in these examples. The examples are meant only as a reference to help make test taking easier. By the end

of the semester, you will have a working knowledge of the information in these questions as well as similar
