Loading flashcards...
1
Define effective dose
dose that produces therapeutic response in target tissue
2
Define fluence
total energy delivered per unit area at tissue surface
fluency = irradiance = power density = intensity
3
what brainwave is used for bottom up processing of incoming sensory information?
gamma (>30 Hz)
4
What brainwaves are used for top down processes (to redirect attention)?
Alpha (8-15 Hz) & Beta (15-30 Hz)
5

taste, gag reflex, carotid reflex
6
Which nuclei are part of the medulla?
(1) Solitary nucleus, (2) Trigeminal Nuclei, (3) Cochlear Nuclei, (4) Vestibular Nuclei, (5) Inferior Olive, (6) Hypoglossal Nucleus, (7) Nucleus Ambiguus, (8) Dorsal Motor Nucleus of Vagus
pneumonic: Mitch (medulla) SATCHDIV
7
How do you coactivate the Trigeminal Nuclei?
vibrate face/mouth, muscles of mastication (bite down)
8
How do you co-activate the Cochlear Nuclei?
acoustics
9
How do you co-activate the Vestibular Nuclei?
head/trunk movements, eye movements
10
How do you co-activate the Nucleus Ambiguus?
swallowing & speaking
11
How do you co-activate the Dorsal Motor Nucleus of Vagus?
digestive enzymes? (motor to GI tract & organs)
12
How do you co-activate the Hypoglossal Nucleus?
move tongue or StimPod tongue (motor to tongue)
13

down & in gaze
19
How do you co-activate Red nucleus?
arm swing, proximal shoulder mm
20
How do you co-activate midline cerebellum?
whole body vibration, Rhomberg, core activation (side plank or prone plank with VOR); stop when core starts trembling
21
How do you co-activate lateral cerebellum?
vibration on extremity, muscle contraction, e-stim, arm/leg complex movement, eye movements, *cognitive tasks!, interactive metronome
22
How do you co-activate the DLPFC?
gaze fixation, focus/attention, executive thought, Neurosage
*co-activate DLPFC for Type 1 ADHD with Theta Red*
23
How do you co-activate the OFC?
anti-saccades, go-no-go activities, emotions, inhibition, Neurosage
*co-activate OFC for Type 2 ADHD with Theta Red*
24
Interactive Metronome is best for co-activating what?
Inferior Olive & Cerebellum
25
What is Crawford's ADHD Protocol?
(1) Laser briainstem/cerebellum with CB/MM Red while coactivating for 2 minutes (until they progress)
(2) Laser OFC (Type 2) &/or DLPFC (Type 1) with Theta Red while coactivating for 2 minutes (until they progress)
(3) Laser gut with Gut IR for 5 minutes every visit
26
What is the laser protocol for ADHD Type 1?
laser right DLPFC with Theta Red (&coactivate with gaze fixation, focus/attention, executive thought)
