Exam 2 Material Flashcards
Motor control says movement comes from what?
interaction between the task, performer, and their environment
static task examples
sitting and standing
(not moving)
dynamic task examples
sit to stand
walking
step up/down
reach to grasp
rolling
APA
RPA
what two observable constructs are involved in the movement analysis model?
postural control and coordination
postural control includes what?
verticality and stability
coordination includes what?
smoothness, timing, sequencing, accuracy
what are the six core tasks?
-sitting
-sit to stand
-standing
-walking
-step up/down
-reach/grasp/manipulate
Initial conditions
-evaluation of the environment and observing STARTING posture
-ex. symmetry, alignment, posture (verticality and stability), environment
Movement preparation (aka preparation)
-Does the individual understand the instructions?
-How do they prepare for the task?
-Are they performing the baseline task without modifications?
-ex. To stand up are they changing the positioning of their feet, or are they reaching for an arm rest, pulling on the side of the bed etc.
-Sometimes it is not observable
Initiation
-Begins the moment the displacement of the segment begins
-Does the movement begin with the appropriate timing and in appropriate direction?
-Looking at sequencing and timing
Execution
-period of actual segment movement
-how do they execute the movement?
(vision (like turning head), using all limbs or one side,etc)
Termination
-Instant when the motion stops
-How did they end their transition/movement (knees bent, BOS, etc)
If expected outcome is met, what is next?
repeat task at least once with progression as needed
If expected outcome is not met, what is next?
Repeat with task regression
what is the order of the movement analysis framework
initial conditions
prep
initiation
execution
termination
expected outcome achieved?
-As an individual ages, ____ and ____ are progressively lost? (that we discussed)
-This makes it harder to do what?
-loss of muscle strength(especially core) and spinal flexibility
-makes it harder to move in the horizontal plane (like rolling)
What three areas are typically used to initiate a roll?
-UE
-Head-trunk
-LE
Expected outcome
-Was the speed appropriate
-Symptoms of the task (dizziness etc)
-Consistency in performance
-Progressions/regressions?
Does rolling include critical events?
NO
-rolling is variable so the person does NOT have to go through critical events
When would we do movement analysis?
-early in examination process
-generate hypothesis about contributing factors
-consider further testing
-Pattern recognition (a must for PT’s)
-Informs for Prognosis and intervention to select appropriate tests/measures
Body functions and structures part of the ICF includes what? Impairments would include?
Body functions: examples
-Cardiovascular functions
-Digestive functions
neuromuscular functions
-Voice and speech functions
Body structures: examples
-muscles
-joints
-heart
Impairments: examples
-pain
-decreased strength
-lacks ROM
-decreased endurance
-Decreased balance/coordination
-Impaired sensation
Examples of activities of the ICF model
-self care
-mobility: getting out of bet, walking, stairs etc
-Communication: speaking or writing
Activity limitations:
-assistance needed with any activity
-inability to perform activity
what is a regulatory factor
something that can be controlled
-surface
what is a non-regulatory factor
-environment that you cannot control
-weather, noise, weight of blankets etc
