There will be a theoretical exam and a practical exam. There will also be a continuous assessment exam in the middle of the course.
It is essential to pass the theoretical final exam and the practical final exam with a minimum grade of 5 in order to be able to average. 55% of the final grade will be from the theoretical exam. 35% of the final grade will be from the practical exam. 10% of the final grade will be from the continuous assessment exam. The final exams can be taken both theoretically and practically even if the continuous assessment exam has not been passed.
Those who do not pass the theoretical or practical assessment exam will have the opportunity to take the basic competences exam (BCE) in order to pass. The subject will be passed with a minimum overall grade point average of 5.
Criteris específics de la nota «No Presentat»:
A student who is not presented will be considered a student who does not appear in the continuous assessment or in the final assessment
It is mandatory to attend the practical classes with the appropriate clothing (uniform and size for the bunk bed). It will also not be allowed to practice with rings, watches, bracelets, earrings or any element that may be detrimental to the comfort and safety of students during the execution of the various physiotherapy maneuvers.
It is essential to take care of body hygiene. The student must attend the practice with his hair gathered, his nails short and unpainted.
Learning outcomes:
- Knowing the physiological and structural changes occuring as a result of the application of respiratory physiotherapy and cardiopulmonary rehabilitation.
- Assessing the cardiac pulmonary patient based on auscultation and complementary tests.
- Applying the physiotherapeutic techniques of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation depending on the patient.
- Retraining the chronic cardiopulmonary patient in exercise.
