Webinar Measure Skin Functions

Webinar Medir as Funções da Pele

SCOPE AND CONTENTS

Quantification of skin variables by noninvasive means. The skin barriers and the most representative variables of the “barrier” against dessication (TEWL and epidermal water balance) of the physical and chemical “barrier” (melanetic, anti-oxidant and microbiome content) and the mechanical “barrier” (sonographic structure and biomechanical indicators). Transcutaneous variables (microcirculation and blood gas analysis).

KEYWORD

Quantify “barriers”; biomechanics; sonography and edema.

RECIPIENTS

Students, graduates, graduates, researchers (MSc, PhD), interns of specialty (dermatology, reconstructive and cosmetic plastic medicine, others).

Webinar Exercise and Recovery of Peripheral Infusion

Webinar Exercício e recuperação da perfusão periférica​

SCOPE AND CONTENTS

Physiotherapy programs (thermotherapy, ultrasound and physical exercise) improve the symptomatology of peripheral arterial disease, sarcopenis and other diseases involving inactivity. However, the individual response is very varied and some of these have an intolerance to exercise. In this sense, the individualization of the exercise is an essential requirement, which implies evaluating and quantifying its impact in each case. Recovery depends heavily on microcirculatory homeostasis and in this sense, we try to provide in this course quick and practical formads to access this information, essential in physiotherapy.

KEYWORDS

physiotherapy; peripheral vascular disease; homehealth

RECIPIENTS

Pre-graduate or post-graduate physiotherapy students, junior researchers (MSc, PhD) (limited to 10 students)
