As a physical therapist assistant (PTA), these various systems are not within the scope of physical therapy in terms of diagnosis, but the PTA must be aware of all of the manifestations that dysfunction to any system can elicit. Also, the PTA must understand the impact on these conditions during exercise. Finally, understanding the physiology, pathology, and side effects of medications to treat these abnormalities is a prerequisite to determining the best treatment interventions, progression, and care.
