Q

CP - Common Gait Pattern(s)

A

Spastic Diplegic and Spastic Hemiplegic

18
Q

Spina Bifida - Etiology

A

Congenital neural tube defect

Overall incidence is declining

19
Q

Spina Bifida - Risk Factors

A

heredity
environmental
teratogenic
folic acid

20
Q

Spina Bifida - Occulta

A

mild presentation; results in only boney defect with spinal cord, meninges and spinal fluid intact

21
Q

Spina Bifida - Meningocele

A

protrusion of meninges; involves the bifid vertebra, with only CSF filled sac protruding

least common

22
Q

Spina Bifida - Myelomeningocele

A

protrusion of meninges and spinal cord; most severe surviving form

23
Q

Spina Bifida - Myelocele

A

Meninges open, spinal cord exposed; low survival rate

24
Q

Spina Bifida - most common vertebral location

A

Lumbosacral (90%)

25
Q

Spinal Bifida - Clinical Presentation

A

not symmetrical, muscle imbalance, contractures, scoliosis; paralysis

26
Q

Spina Bifida - Ox Intervention

A

Primarily for standing and ambulating; joint stability and deformity prevention

27
Q

Spina Bifida - Common Gait Pattern

A

increased pelvic oscillation, trunk/pelvis leaned posteriorly, shortened steps

28
Q

MS - Etiology

A

chronic, inflammatory demyelinating disease of brain and spinal cord; Idiopathic

29
Q

MS - Clinical Presentation

A

decreased balance
difficulty with swallowing and speech
visual impairments
pain
fatigue
muscle weakness
cognitive issues and fatigue

30
Q

MS - Ox Intervention

A

FOs
SMOs
AFOs
KOs
KAFOs

31
Q

MS - Common Gait Pattern

A

Ataxic; clumsy, unsteady, possible tremors

32
Q

CVA - Etiology

A

AKA Stroke; rapid loss of brain function, blockage of blood to brain

33
Q

CVA - Clinical Presentation

A

Neurological function impairment; issues with speaking, eating, emotion control, eating control, vision, spasticity, etc.

34
Q

CVA - LL Ox Intervention

A

Assist in ambulation; increase proprioception and reduce spasticity

35
Q

CVA - UE Ox Intervention

A

Assist in shoulder stability; reduction/prevention of wrist and elbow contractures

36
Q

CVA - Common Gait Patterns

A

Hemiparetic

37
Q

TBI - Etiology

A

Commonly 15-24 year olds (risk taking), secondarily toddlers and geriatrics
Causes: MVA, Falls, GSW, Sports/Athletics

38
Q

TBI - Clinical Presentation

A

Initially flaccid, followed by increased spasticity and rigidity; two posturing types (decorticate and decerebrate)

39
Q

TBI - Classification Scale

A

Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS)

40
Q

TBI - Orthotic Intervention

A

Contracture prevention, reduction, & correction; stability in static standing
