Course content

 

Topics covered generally include:

 

1. Aetiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis and clinical presentation of complex cardiopulmonary dysfunction across the lifespan, including:

 

- Critical care: intensive care and high dependency

 

- Limitations to exercise capacity

 

 - Paediatric respiratory disease.

 

2. Adaptation of history taking for patients presenting with complex cardiopulmonary dysfunction.

 

3. Adaptation of physical examination principles and procedures commonly used in assessing the cardiopulmonary function of patients with complex cardiopulmonary disease and related issues of reliability and validity.

 

4. Radiological and medical investigations commonly ordered for the investigation of cardiopulmonary function in acute care, exercise training and paediatric care.

 

5. Techniques, indications, contraindications, complications, progression, biological basis and empirical evidence for physiotherapeutic management of complex cardiopulmonary dysfunction including:

 

- manual hyperinflation

 

- non invasive ventilation

 

- suctioning

 

- exercise testing and prescription

 

- interventions for paediatric respiratory conditions.

 

6. Non-physiotherapeutic conservative, surgical and pharmacological management of complex cardiopulmonary disorders, including complications and side effects.

 

7. Physiotherapeutic care of the patient in intensive care or high dependency including:

 

- ventilated patients

 

- respiratory failure

 

- multi system failure and acute head injury

 

- spinal injury

 

- neonatal intensive care

 

- the multidisciplinary team and the role of the physiotherapist.

 

8. Rehabilitation and exercise for pulmonary and cardiovascular disorders, including:

 

- indications and contraindications

 

- exercise testing

 

- exercise prescription and progression

 

- monitoring and safety

 

- patient education

 

- outcome measures

 

- the multidisciplinary team and the role of the physiotherapist.

 

9. Patient education and health promotion strategies relevant to the pulmonary and cardiovascular systems.

 

10. Psychosocial considerations relevant to managing patients with complex cardiopulmonary dysfunction.

 

11. Biological basis and empirical evidence for physiotherapy interventions for patients with complex cardiopulmonary dysfunction.

 

12. Ethical, lifespan, gender, cultural and legal issues relevant to the management of complex cardiopulmonary dysfunction.

 

13. Further outcome measures for complex cardiopulmonary disorders including reliability, validity and responsiveness.
