Human physiology applied to physiotherapy
The course of human physiology will use some concepts taught in biology, biochemistry and histology in order to expose various topics related to the functioning of major body systems. Remember that the physiology on the respiratory system (cf. 2 BKR - second semester) and physiology on the cardiovascular system (see 3 BKR - 1st term) were also exposed.
We will discuss in particular the following chapters: 1. System of biological regulation. 2. The kidneys and the regulation of fluid and electrolyte balance. 3. Regulation of organic metabolism, growth and energy balance.

Part II : Human biometrics

1.Somatic measures in particular height, weight and linear dimensions. 2. Flexibility and muscle strength. 3. Cardiac and respiratory function. 4. Endurance capacity. 5. explosive force 6. Body composition. 7. Body composition and performance / health. 8. Growth and development. 9. Senescence. 10. Physical activity and health promotion. 11. Assessing the health of the athlete.

Learning outcomes of the course :  
Part I : Human physiology

In human physiology, presentation of some basic principles of homeostatic regulation of the body. In particular, regulation of body temperature, energy balance, arterial pH. Quantitative approach to physical performance.

Part II : Human biometrics

The course of human biometrics proposes to assess an individual from simple anatomical landmarks (applications in the field of health, athletic performance, development of the individual,...). This course will also describe how to evaluate various functional parameters such as muscle strength, flexibility as well as the respiratory and cardiac functional capacity of the individual. Finally, in this course, we will describe how changing the various measures somatic and functional during growth but also in the context of senescence.

Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :  
Part I : Human physiology

In some sense, the undergraduate courses, especially chemistry, histology and biology are the prerequisites of the course in physiology. It is clear that for each part of the field of physiology, all undergraduate courses form a foundation of skills which are based on developments specific to the physiology.

Part II : Human biometrics

In biometrics, the course will use some concepts taught in biology, anatomy, histology, physiology
