Main themes
  • Osteology, arthrology, myology, peripheral nervous system, vascular system (major arteriovenous and lymphatic axes)
  • Topographic approach: joints of the head, neck, trunk and limbs, the muscles that mobilize them, their innervation and vascularization.
Learning outcomes

At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to :

1
  • Name and describe the structures of the musculoskeletal system (2.1, 5.3, 11.1 Kiné – 9.1 EP)
  • Identify the function of the muscles and the joint ranges associated with them (2.1, 5.1, 11.1 Physiotherapy – 9.1)
  • Describe the axes of rotation of the joints and the resulting movement mechanisms (2.1, 5.1, 11.1 Physio – 9.1 EP)
  • Use the description of the structures of the locomotor system to explain the movement (5.1, 11.1, 11.2 Kiné – 9.1 and 9.2 EP)
  • Distinguish structures to explain movement (5.1, 11.1, 11.2 Kiné – 9.1 and 9.2 EP)
  • Apply movement analysis concepts to assess alterations in musculoskeletal function and mechanical disorders. (5.1, 5.3, 11.1, 11.2 Physio – 9.1 and 9.2 EP)
  • Use the concepts seen during the course to solve concrete cases (5.3 Physio - 9.3 EP)
 
Content
Content and teaching method - Anatomy of the locomotor system (bones, joints, muscles, peripheral nerves). - Movement analysis of each joint. - Analysis of postures and dynamic gesture.
Teaching methods
Masterclass illustrated with numerous anatomy plates.
Evaluation methods
Written exam by MCQ.
Some questions concern structures or organs illustrated in the questionnaire.
The assessment is carried out using a multiple choice exam, containing questions with 5 propositions with, for each of these questions, a single correct answer. The correction of the exam is arithmetic and does not include a negative point in the event of an incorrect answer. For the calculation of the final mark, arithmetic rounding to the nearest unit is systematic, except for marks lower than 10/20 for which rounding is done towards the lower unit.
Other information
Prerequisite : Essentials of systematic and functional anatomy (LFSM1102) and Mechanics and biomechanics (LFSM1105, LFSM1109).
Evaluation : MCQ
Support : notes, atlas, anatomical pieces, websites.
