ANATOMY: LOWER AND UPPER LIMBS
HBS2ALU
2019
Credit points: 15
Subject outline
In this subject the anatomical principles and terminology introduced in HBS1HBB will be applied to the detailed study of the anatomy of the lower limb and the upper limb and hand. The concept of integrated function of multiple body systems will be developed in each region and relevant medical imaging techniques and clinical assessment skills will be incorporated. The subject is taught in a blended mode. Face-to-face lectures and on-line activities will provide an outline of the major content of this subject which is reviewed in workshops, but students will be responsible for their own learning using all the learning activities.

Graduate capabilities & intended learning outcomes
01. Apply anatomical principles to describe normal structure and function of body systems within the lower limb and explain its role in support, locomotion and posture.
- Activities:
- Online learning activities, practical classes, lectures
02. Apply anatomical principles to describe normal structure and function of body systems in the upper limb and explain its role in grasp.
- Activities:
- Online learning activities, practical classes, lectures
03. Apply observational and communication skills to make accurate observations of anatomical structures or events and infer their relationship to function using cadaveric material, the living body or medical imaging in a laboratory environment.
