Outcomes
  • By the end of this course, learners will be able to:
  • Understand the structure and function of tendons, especially at the tendon-to-bone attachment (enthesis)
  • Explain the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in tendon injury and healing.
  • Differentiate between tendonitis, tendinosis, and tendinopathy.
  • Apply knowledge of tendon pathology to clinical assessment and diagnosis. Make informed clinical decisions for evidence-based treatment and rehabilitation of tendon injuries.
  • Make informed clinical decisions for evidence-based treatment and rehabilitation of tendon injuries.
  • Communicate tendon injury mechanisms effectively to patients for better compliance and recovery.
Requirements
  • No prior specialization required:
  • open to licensed physiotherapists, physiotherapy interns, and final-year students.
  • Basic understanding of anatomy and biomechanics is recommended for better comprehension.
  • Active participation in the class sessions.
  • Completion of all modules/quizzes (if included) to receive the course certificate.
