This course explores the principles and practices of rehabilitation in individuals with cardiopulmonary disorders, focusing on the assessment, management, and therapeutic interventions aimed at improving cardiovascular and respiratory function. Students will gain an understanding of the pathophysiology of common cardiopulmonary conditions, as well as evidence-based strategies for physical rehabilitation, exercise prescription, patient education, and long-term health promotion. Emphasis is placed on multidisciplinary approaches, clinical decision-making, and the role of rehabilitation professionals in enhancing quality of life and functional independence among affected populations.
