17
Q

initially, what are 5 reasons a patient does not use the affected limb?

A

weakness or paresis
altered force production
sensory loss
spasticity
stroke-related pain (commonly shoulder pain)

18
Q

what is learned bad use?

A

when normal movement of the paretic limb is prevented, compensatory strategies are used to complete the tasks

19
Q

what two principles of neuroplasticity relate to “forgetting to use”

A

use it or lose it
repetition matters

20
Q

during which phase do therapeutic interventions focus on reducing secondary impairments?

A

chronic

21
Q

gadupe

A
22
Q

what are things to consider when choosing the interventions to use?

A
  • which impairments are contributing to the functional status
  • stage of recovery
  • learned nonuse (restorative interventions)
  • if the UE is flaccid (WB & support)
  • task-oriented approach (make it salient)
  • facilitation (but only what is needed)
  • trunk stability is a prerequisite
23
Q

why is soft tissue/joint mobilization and ROM initiated early in poststroke patients?

A

encourage AROM and prevent contracture

24
Q

in ranges of 90 deg shoulder flexion be careful not to perform _________ of ________

A

distraction of humerus

25
Q

scapula should be mobilized with emphasis of ________ and ________

A

upward rotation and protraction

25
Q

should you use shoulder pulleys with neurologic patients? why or why not?

A

no
they do not facilitate appropriate scapulohumeral rhythm

26
Q

what ICF domain do performing purposeful activities fall under?

A

activity domain

27
Q

having an intrinsic motivator falls under which two principles of neuroplasticity?

A

specificity and salience

28
Q

how do you use the upper limb as a stabilizer?
–> early or later stage intervention?

A

increase WBing and approximation of joints
–> early stroke intervention

29
Q

how do you use the upper limb as a manipulator?
–> early or later stage intervention?

A

reaching and grasping objects & performing ADLs – need finger extension
–> later stroke intervention

30
Q

what phase do you start to initiate constraint-induced movement therapy?

A

subacute –> require distal motor function

31
Q

what is the protocol for using CIMT?

A
  1. restraint unaffected arm with mitt, sling, or glove for 90% of working hours for a 2-3 week period
  2. therapy sessions are intense, repetitive task training for 6-8 hours a day
32
Q

the ideal shoulder sling:
- helps maintain _____ alignment with allowed _____
- ______ tendency of humerus to IR
- takes some weight of the arm off the ______

A
  • normal ; freedom of movement
  • decreases
  • upper trunk
33
Q

what are general rules for sling use to support UE?

A
  • minimize use during rehab
  • useful for initial transfer and gait training
  • stay away from traditional slings if you can
34
Q

what are effective alternatives to sling use?

A

taping/strapping
electrotherapy

35
Q

studies show the arm trough ______ the subluxation vs shoulder sling

A

overcorrects

36
Q

what is a WC arm trough?

A

board or lap tray attached to WC to provide support for flaccid arm

37
Q

gadupe

A
38
Q

what are pros for resting hand splint?
what is a con?

A

pros:
- limits contractures with spasticity return
- prevents extreme wrist flexion

con:
- enforces learned non-use

39
Q

in a patient using a 4WW or RW, if grip strength is an issue what can you add to assist them?

A

arm trough
or therapist facilitates hand over hand facilitation
tapping with Ace bandage

40
Q

what is a pro of using unilateral devices?
what is some cons?

A

pros:
- offers independence

cons:
- encourages compensatory gait pattern –> usually step to gait pattern is used

41
Q

what is the SAFE model?

SAFE patients by day 2 after stroke had _____ probability of achieving upper limb function

Some arm & finger ext.
98%
