| Goals | "Cardiovascular Adaptation and Rehabilitation in Exercise" course aims to understand the effects of exercise on the cardiovascular system and the role of these effects in rehabilitation processes. This course comprehensively covers the responses of the cardiovascular system to exercise, adaptation processes and rehabilitation strategies for cardiovascular diseases. It is aimed to provide students with knowledge and skills on how exercise programmes should be designed to improve cardiovascular health. In addition, it is aimed to develop a scientifically based understanding of how to manage a safe and effective rehabilitation process in individuals with cardiovascular disease. |
| Course Content | Topics such as Cardiovascular System Physiology, cardiovascular effects of exercise, cardiovascular rehabilitation, Nutrition and Lifestyle Changes in Cardiovascular Health constitute the general content of this course. |
| Learning Outcomes |
- Students will be able to explain the anatomical structure and functioning of the cardiovascular system and the physiological changes that occur during exercise - Students will be able to analyse the acute and chronic effects of exercise on the cardiovascular system and describe the positive effects of regular exercise on heart health - Students will be able to apply cardiovascular fitness assessment tests, analyse exercise test results and evaluate cardiovascular risks. - Students will be able to explain the importance of nutrition and lifestyle changes that promote heart health and integrate this knowledge into exercise programmes. - Students will have knowledge about new technologies and devices used in cardiovascular rehabilitation and will be able to incorporate these tools into rehabilitation processes |
