Pre-Clinical & Para-Clinical Departments at SRIMS College of Physiotherapy

To ensure a strong foundational understanding of the human body and its functions, SRIMS College of Physiotherapy integrates comprehensive teaching from expert-led Pre-Clinical and Para-Clinical departments. These departments not only follow the CBME curriculum as per NMC norms but are tailored to provide physiotherapy students with relevant clinical correlations and practical applications as per CBPC (Competency Based Physiotherapy Curriculum).

Goals:
  • Enable comprehension of normal structure and development of organs and systems with clinical correlation for physiotherapy relevance.
  • Teach functional and cross-sectional anatomy essential for understanding movement sciences and kinesiological assessments.
  • Identify microscopic structures of tissues and organs, which aids in pathology interpretation and therapeutic planning.
  • Understand developmental anomalies, teratology, and congenital abnormalities relevant to pediatric physiotherapy.
  • Learn basics of karyotyping and gross congenital anomalies affecting movement and neuromuscular development.
  • Interpret CT, MRI, and sonographic images critical for modern physiotherapy diagnostics and patient communication.
Facilities Available:
  • Well-equipped Anatomy Museum
  • Body embalming unit and cold storage for cadaveric studies
  • Expert faculty-led dissection and prosection-based teaching
  • Infrastructure meeting all NMC norms

Goals:
  • Develop a thorough understanding of organ functions, body systems, and physiological changes across lifespan stages crucial for physical assessment.
  • Demonstrate responses to environmental stress and exercise, laying the groundwork for exercise physiology.
  • Conduct basic physiological experiments and interpret test results (e.g., ECG, spirometry).
  • Apply physiological principles to clinical conditions in cardiopulmonary, neuromuscular, and musculoskeletal domains.
  • Perform general and system-based physical examinations – vital for patient evaluation and rehabilitation planning.
Facilities Available:
  • Expert faculty with hands-on experimental training
  • Fully equipped physiology lab
  • Compliant with all NMC norms

Goals:
  • Understand biochemical and molecular processes influencing musculoskeletal health, healing, and nutrition.
  • Explore enzymology and metabolic pathways important in tissue repair and inflammation.
  • Study nutrient assimilation and malnutrition as it impacts patient recovery and therapy outcomes.
  • Perform relevant biochemical tests and interpret results for patient assessment (e.g., Vitamin D, calcium, electrolyte balance).
  • Learn molecular basis of genetic and metabolic disorders influencing physiotherapy outcomes.
Facilities Available:
  • Practical lab training under expert faculty
  • Facilities aligned with NMC standards

Goals:
  • Understand pathophysiological mechanisms and morphological changes in diseases affecting movement and function.
  • Correlate pathology findings with clinical symptoms for better patient assessment.
  • Perform and interpret pathological investigations (e.g., hemoglobin, ESR, urinalysis) used in physiotherapy planning.
  • Exposure to specialized pathology sections including histopathology and hematopathology.
Facilities Available:
  • NABL-accredited 24x7 diagnostic lab
  • FDA-approved blood bank
  • Dedicated sections for histopathology, cytology, immunofluorescence & molecular diagnostics
  • Teaching by senior pathologists

Goals:
  • Understand microbial agents and immune responses relevant to infection control in physiotherapy settings.
  • Learn laboratory diagnosis and antimicrobial resistance management essential in patient care.
  • Emphasize infection prevention and outbreak control – vital for rehabilitation units and home visits.
  • Study host-parasite relationships and defense mechanisms, enabling better risk assessments in immunocompromised patients.
Facilities Available:
  • State-of-the-art microbiology lab
  • Advanced diagnostic instruments
  • Faculty experienced in teaching and research
  • NMC-compliant infrastructure

Goals:
  • Understand commonly used drugs relevant to pain management, inflammation, muscle relaxants, and neurological conditions.
  • Learn laboratory diagnosis and antimicrobial resistance management essential in patient care.
  • Emphasize infection prevention and outbreak control – vital for rehabilitation units and home visits.

Goals:
  • Understand public health principles and community-based rehabilitation (CBR).
  • Apply concepts of national health programs, epidemiology, and disease prevention in physiotherapy outreach.
  • Conduct family visits, health education, and BCC (behavior change communication) for preventive physiotherapy.
  • Learn basic research methodology, program implementation, and health surveillance.
  • Gain real-world exposure through family adoption programs and field visits.
Facilities Available:
  • Experienced public health faculty
  • Teaching integrated with field-based learning
