Attendance and active participation in the proposed training activities (frontal lessons and outpatient activities) and individual study will allow the student to:
- describe and classify the main neurological diseases describing their symptoms
- recognize motor and cognitive aspects of the main neurological pathologies, with particular reference to the presentation and clinical course of the strength deficit, the appearance of spasticity, muscle-tendon retractions and repercussions on walking
- recognize the syndromic pictures characterized by motor involvement following injury of the peripheral rather than central nervous system
Frontal lectures in the classroom and exercises at the electromyography laboratory of the Dvision of Neurophysiopathology with practical demonstration of nerve conduction velocity and muscle ultrasound
