APPLIED TECHNICAL AND MEDICAL SCIENCES
Learning objective is the knowledge of the technologies of diagnostic imaging available today, the technical and practical aspects, the radiation protection aspects and any precautions necessary for the pediatric field for the implementation of radiological practices to support the rehabilitation process are essential objectives. The course aims to provide every element useful for knowing how to use radiological imaging appropriately.
These objectives will be achieved through lectures designed to facilitate learning and improve the ability to face and solve the main questions relating to diagnostic imaging in pediatric age.

GENERAL AND SPECIALIZED PEDIATRICS
The course intends to promote specific learning about physiology and most important pathologies of neonatal and pediatric age. Specific attention will be dedicated to prenatal and neonatal care, physiology of neonatal transition at birth, promotion of breastfeeding and prevention of neonatal and pediatric injuries.
GENERAL AND SPECIALIZED PEDIATRICS
The course intends to promote specific learning about physiology and most important pathologies of pediatric age. The student will acquire knowledge about the pathogenic mechanisms as well as clinical manifestations and management of major pediatric diseases. Specific attention will be dedicated to immunization, respiratory tract diseases, infectious diseases and immune-mediated diseases with special focus on allergy and autoimmune conditions.

LOCOMOTIVE SYSTEM
Orthopaedics is the specialty that treats diseases or injuries of the body's musculoskeletal system. This system includes bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves and allows you to move, walk and be active. The course is focused about learning the most important and frequent pathologies in pediatric orthopedics and preparing the student to manage all the essentials pre and post trauma/surgery to regain a full healing.
A physiotherapist plays an essential role within the multidisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, occupational therapists, psychologists and play therapists.
The aim of the course is to teach how the physiotherapy gets joints and muscles moving and gains functional skills, such as learning to walk with crutches or a frame.
An experienced physiotherapist will complete an assessment of all children who are going to have orthopaedic surgery. The physiotherapy assessment is essential in aiding decision-making regarding surgery or other recommendations. It also allows us to prepare the family and the child for surgery, answer questions, and plan what help and further physiotherapy might be needed after you are discharged home.
A physiotherapist will help the child after surgery to regain mobility and independence in order to be discharged home.


NEUROPSICHIATRIA INFANTILE / CHILD NEUROLOGY
Gli obbiettivi fondamentali ed irrinunciabili sono:
• Acquisizione di un bagaglio di conoscenze scientifiche necessario per classificare e definire le patologie neuropsichiatriche più comunemente riscontrate nella pratica clinica in età pediatrica.
• Comprensione dei meccanismi neuroanatomici e fisiopatologici che sottendono al deficit neurologico e le peculiarità in età pediatrica;
• Approccio clinico al bambino affetto da patologie neurologiche di interesse riabilitativo;
Fundamental and indispensable objectives are the following:
• To acquire precise scientific knowledge necessary to classify and correctly define the pediatric neurological diseases most frequently encountered in the clinical setting.
• Comprehension of the main pathophysiological mechanisms responsible of the neurological deficit and specific in children.
• Clinical approach to child affected by neurological diseases most encountered in rehabilitation clinical setting.
