Yes, BPT students study all elements of basic pharmacology, and surgery-related subjects so they are better informed about patient conditions.
Although Physiotherapy students do not perform surgeries, the BPT course provides General & Orthopedic surgery, Pharmacology, and Pathology to help the students make the physiological connection between physiotherapy treatments and medical diagnoses. This correlation allows students to design proper rehabilitation plans along with treatment plans to be aware of the nature and intensity of the rehabilitation needs post-operatively.
