KNPE 429 Skeletal Muscle Oxygen Delivery: Demand Matching in Exercise Units: 3.00
The focus of this course is to develop an advanced understanding of cardiovascular and respiratory responses in meeting oxygen demand of exercising skeletal muscle. Topics: oxygen delivery in exercising skeletal muscle metabolism/contraction; compromised exercise performance in selected diseases; mechanisms of enhancement of exercise tolerance.
Learning Hours: 132 (36 Lecture, 12 Tutorial, 12 Online Activity, 72 Private Study)
Requirements: Prerequisite Level 3 or above and registration in the KINE Specialization Plan and KNPE 125/3.0 and KNPE 225/3.0 and KNPE 227/3.0.
Offering Faculty: Faculty of Arts and Science
Course Learning Outcomes:
- Explain and illustrate cardiovascular and respiratory responses to exercise, and their mechanisms in order to inform expertise in integrative cardiovascular and respiratory exercise physiology.
- Create and apply key principle, cause-effect and physiological models to predict and interpret cardiovascular and respiratory support of exercising muscle and the mechanisms responsible.
- Evaluate, interpret and communicate scientific literature to facilitate evidence-based understanding of advances in cardiovascular and respiratory exercise physiology related to oxygen delivery demand matching.
