                                3. COURSE DESCRIPTION

• This subject will enable the student to acquire the necessary knowledge and management to
establish an adequate physiotherapeutic diagnosis of acute and chronic respiratory and cardiac
pathologies. This will allow the student to design and establish a program of intervention in
physiotherapy with preventive, curative or palliative purposes in the processes related to the
cardiorespiratory system.

• It is important to jointly carry out this subject with the subject Physiotherapy in Cardio-respiratory
Diseases because they are complementary.

                        9. ATTITUDE IN THE CLASSROOM
1. - REGULATIONS

   Any irregular act of academic integrity (no reference to cited sources, plagiarism of work or
   inappropriate use of prohibited information during examinations) or signing the attendance
   sheet for fellow students not present in class will result in the student not being eligible for
   continuous assessment and possibly being penalized according to the University regulations.
   The use of electronic devices during the classes, both theoretical and practical, is not
   allowed, except when they are used for teaching purposes.
   It is likewise restricted use of the documentation provided by the teacher through the student
   portal (presentations, questions, exercises, seminars, notebooks practices, etc.) to the
   preparation of the subject. Teachers reserve the right to make use of the measures contained
   in the legislation on Intellectual Property, in cases where use and / or unauthorized disclosure
   of such material is detected reserved.

                               10. EXCEPTIONAL MEASURES

   Should an exceptional situation occur which prevents continuing with face-to-face teaching
   under the conditions previously established to this end, the University will take appropriate
   decisions and adopt the necessary measures to guarantee the acquisition of skills and
   attainment of learning outcomes as established in this Course Unit Guide. This will be done in
   accordance with the teaching coordination mechanisms included in the Internal Quality
   Assurance System of each degree.

                                                                                                      10
