ORTHO 10SC: Prevention by Design: Innovation for Chronic Disease Prevention

Focuses on applying design-thinking methodology to identify barriers that limit compliance with evidence-based recommendations for disease prevention, and create a new process in which health workers and patients employ a disease ¿prevention by design¿ approach that more effectively reduces risk-behaviors and promotes adoption of a healthy lifestyle. Students learn about the nature of chronic disease, discuss the challenges of prevention given the complexity of chronic disease, and use case studies to empirically investigate the very people who will use the prevention programs. Students create a Human-Centered Design Program that complements approaches currently being used for disease prevention and makes a critically important addition by focusing on the unique needs, context, goals, desires, strengths and limitations of the end-user. Class structure includes presentations, guest speakers, discussion, and design sessions. Includes field trips for application of knowledge. The final week focses on an integrated plan for ¿prevention by design¿.

ORTHO 97Q: Sport, Exercise, and Health: Exploring Sports Medicine (HUMBIO 97Q)

Preference to sophomores. Sports medicine is the practice of clinical medicine at the interface between health and performance, competition and well-being. While sports medicine had its origins in providing care to athletes, medical advances developed in care of athletes exerted a great effect on the nature and quality of care to the broader community. Topics include sports injuries, medical conditions associated with sport and exercise, ethics, coaching, women's issues, fitness and health, and sports science. Case studies.

ORTHO 110: Practical Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Exam (ORTHO 210)

Designed for students considering a career in sports medicine, orthopaedics, physical medicine and rehabilitation, emergency medicine, internal medicine, family practice, or physical therapy. Focus is on diagnosis and treatment of the most common injuries encountered in sports medicine, from head to toe and from acute trauma to chronic overuse. Students gain competence performing an efficient sports medicine exam, developing a differential diagnosis, and a treatment plan on how to safely return athletes back to their sport. Focused physical exam skills are taught for the neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand, low back, hip, knee, leg, ankle and foot. Most sessions consist of anatomy review, case discussion, and hands-on exam practice in small groups. A few sessions cover specific hot topics in sports medicine such as concussion, athletic heart syndrome, and advanced performance techniques. Course requires an in-class presentation or short review paper.

ORTHO 120: Introduction to Lifestyle Medicine (ORTHO 220)

Lifestyle medicine is an exciting new movement to empower practicing clinicians and aspiring physicians to facilitate behavioral change and promote a culture of health and wellness in patients. Focus is on both concrete, evidence-based findings and tangible, practical tools to readily translate into everyday clinical practice. A series of leading experts and guest lectures guide students through interactive, patient-focused activities in topics including, but not limited to: nutrition, exercise, sleep, motivational interviewing, meditation, and acupuncture. Students enrolling for 2 units use a fitness and lifestyle monitoring wristband and prepare a report on your results.
