Abstract

Pathokinesis is a process of conceptual organization of a situation of movement commitment by which the Physiotherapist, faced with his object of study from his epistemological reason, considers and represents the factors that are conditioning the entire context of the situation, requiring guidelines to advance This process improves the quality of professional practice, which is why this article sought to conduct a bibliographic review to establish the conceptual and guiding elements that have been given for the development of an adequate pathokinesis. To do this, the databases Pubmed, Ebsco, Host, Cocraine, Sport Medic, Scielo, Oldmedline, Doyma, Google Scholar were consulted, from 1975 to 2010. As a result of the search, it was found that pathogenesis is a process of analysis and conceptual construction that graphically represents the facts linked to the movement that, through the organization, allow the Physiotherapist to find the factors for making decisions and improving the effectiveness and quality of the practice.
