Special physiology and pathology (SEN)
The ageing process affects almost all body systems and is accompanied by physiological changes and an increased susceptibility to certain diseases. This subject focuses on central aspects of geriatrics, in particular changes in the cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal, nervous and metabolic systems.
Building on this, there is a comprehensive introduction to common age-related diseases such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's or dementia. The aim is to develop a sound understanding of the development, symptoms and relevance of these diseases in the context of exercise and training in old age.
