Subject Description
The subject serves to integrate the knowledge gained by the students in neurology and
neurosurgery with skills to apply these in clinical situations of dysfunction and
neurological pathology.
Objectives of the subject
At the end of 4th year BPT the students will be able to incorporate knowledge
gained in basic sciences in conjunction with foundation courses to-
 Integrate the knowledge gained in neurology and neurosurgery with skills to

apply these in clinical situations of dysfunction and neurological pathology.

 Able to identify disabilities due to neurological dysfunction, plan and set treatment
goals and apply the skills gained in exercise therapy and electrotherapy in these
clinical situations to restore neurological function.
