Paediatric Sport and Exercise Medicine

Exercise is medicine for healthy children as well as for children with chronic disease. This course will give a thorough introduction into paediatric sport and exercise medicine. During this week you will learn how to apply physiological knowledge into clinical practice. We will have several practicals during this week. There will be demonstrations on how to do a cardiopulmonary exercise test, field fitness test and body composition.

This course will be part of the Utrecht Summer School 2023. In the following months the new course information will be uploaded. Please visit the Summer School website in early 2023 to learn more about the topics, assessment, course aim, study load and application procedure.
