AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES Acquiring knowledge of the physiological bases of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation of the main neurological diseases, with particular reference to the treatment of clinical conditions producing disorders of motor function. AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES Acquire knowledge of the physiological foundations of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation of major neurological disorders, with particular emphasis on the treatment of clinical conditions that cause motor function disturbances. Special emphasis is placed on stroke rehabilitation, particularly in the sub-acute phase. As a model for the rehabilitation of degenerative diseases, Parkinson's disease rehabilitation is specifically described, detailing the involvement of the kinesiologist specialist in the care of these patients. TEACHING METHODS Lectures with slides. Students with valid certifications for Specific Learning Disorders (SLD), disabilities, or other educational needs are invited to contact the instructor and the School/Department disability coordinator at the beginning of the course to agree on any teaching methods that, while respecting the course objectives, take individual learning styles into account. SYLLABUS/CONTENT Physiological bases of rehabilitation: plasticity mechanisms and neuromuscular facilitation techniques. Elements of physiology and pathophysiology of motor control. Clinical exploration of the motor control: transcranial magnetic stimulation and assessment of spinal reflexes. Upper motor neuron syndrome and lower motor neuron syndrome. Integrated treatment of the positive phenomena of the upper motor neuron syndrome: spasticity, spastic dystonia and spastic co-contraction. Rehabilitation of the patient with stroke. Rehabilitation of the patient with Parkinson's disease. Rehabilitation of the patient with aphasia and unilateral neglect. No invasive brain stimulation techniques (NIBS) and their application in rehabilitation. RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY G. Sandrini, R. Dattola - Compendio di Neuroriabilitazione. Verduci Ed.
