Master of Physiotherapy (MPT) in Cardio-respiratory disorders & intensive care

The Master of Physiotherapy (MPT) in Cardio-respiratory Disorders & Intensive Care under the specialty of Intensive Care Physiotherapy is a postgraduate program designed to train physiotherapists in the advanced management of patients with cardio-respiratory conditions, especially in critical care settings. Spanning 2 years, the curriculum integrates both theoretical and practical components, focusing on areas such as pulmonary rehabilitation, cardiovascular management, critical care interventions, and mechanical ventilation. Key aspects of the course include clinical rotations in intensive care units (ICUs), respiratory care units, and cardiac care units, where students gain hands-on experience under expert supervision. Exposure to ICU monitoring equipment, mechanical ventilators, and ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) systems is also an essential part of the clinical learning process.
