Basic principles of neurorehabilitation. Computed and robotic rehabilitation technologies Invasive rehabilitation and therapeutic modalities. Mechanisms of adaptive neuroplasticity, motor learning in rehabilitation therapy in neurological patients. Demonstration of Kinesiologic laboratory and robotic rehabilitation systems. Demonstration patients of rehabilitation department, rehabilitation examination (posture and motion assessment) Manipulative Therapy: Musculoskeletal Medicine: Karel Lewit Practical Functional Examination and Demonstration of acute rehabilitation of a patient with a ventilation and posture disorder.

Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to introduce clinical rehabilitation, basic functional tests of motor skills and functional therapy options. After the course the student should be able to basically examine a patient with respect to detection of the most common movement pathologies and should be familiar with the most common compensatory mechanisms resulting from these pathologies. Student becomes familiar with basic principles of clinical rehabilitation programmes in the most common diagnosis with respect to other clinical medical fields.
After the course the student should be able to basically examine a patient with respect to detection of the most common movement pathologies and should be familiar with the most common compensatory mechanisms resulting from these pathologies. Student becomes familiar with basic principles of rehabilitation programmes in significant and common diagnosis and realizes connection among other clinical fields.
