Biomechanics

This course covers the biomechanics of the human anatomy. This course covers muscular-skeletal movements as it applies in orthotics and prosthetics and the practitioner's considerations when applied to the proper selection of devices.

Upon completion of this module, the participant will understand:

  • Muscular-skeletal system
  • Kinetics and kinematics
  • Center of gravity
  • Base of support
  • Forces
  • Levers and forces
  • Newton's laws of motion
  • The law of equilibrium
  • Support systems
