FND III - EXAM 1 Flashcards
What is the ICF schematic?
International classification of functioning, disability, and health
Impairment
Activity - extent of functioning
Participation - involvement in life
Context - social/attitudinal environment
What is the difference between a primary and a rehab treatment diagnosis?
Primary - medical diagnosis resulting in therapy disorder
Rehab treatment - conditions and functional deficits manifested as a result of the primary diagnosis and for which services are rendered.
Plan of Care
Safe, effective, patient-centered Meet goals/outcomes with avail. resources Specified length of time Predicted level of improvement Specific interventions
What are 3 important performance-based functional tests?
Six-Minute Walk Test
Timed Up and Go Test
Functional Reach Test
What is supervision?
Another individual is needed within arm’s reach as a precaution but low probability of a problem
What is close guarding?
Person assisting is ready to assist in “ready mode”
What is contact guarding?
Physical contact is maintained but not giving patient assistance
What is minimal assistance?
Patient performs 75% of activity (majority)
What is moderate assistance?
Patient performs 50% of activity
What is maximal assistance?
Patient performs 25% of activity
What is dependent?
Patient unable to perform any of the activity
What is a normal balance grade?
Static - pt able to maintain steady balance without hand-held support
Dynamic - accepts max challenge and can weight-shift within full ranges
What is “good” balance grade?
Static - able to maintain balance without hand-held support; limited sway
Dynamic - accepts moderate challenges and can maintain balance while picking up object from floor
What is “fair” balance grade?
Static - requires hand-held assist, may require occasional assistance
Dynamic - accepts minimal challenge and maintains balance while turning head
What is “poor” balance grade?
Static - requires hand-held support and mod/max assist to maintain balance
Dynamic - unable to accept challenges or move without loss of balance
What is the Lawton-Brody IADL Scale?
Identifies specific actions of a skill such as ability to use telephone, shopping, food prep, housekeeping, laundry, mode of transpo, medication management, and ability to handle finances.
What is the Barthel Index?
Specifically measures degree of assistance on 10 items: complete independence or needs help
What is the Katz Index of Independence in ADLs?
Examines BADLs but doesn’t mention ambulation. Evaluation of independence in bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, and feeding
What is the Sickness Impact Profile?
136 items in 12 distinct domains of QOL
What is the SF-36?
Global measure of function and well-being used in outpatient settings.
What is the Functional Independence Measure (FIM)?
13 motor and 5 social-cognitive items assessing self care, sphincter control, transfer, locomotion, communication, social interaction, and cognition
What is the Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS)?
Adult home care scoring system for home health agencies to predict outcomes and measure quality of care.
What is test reliability?
How well the test is able to be repeated giving the same results
What is inter-rater vs. intra-rater reliability?
Inter - multiple testers
Intra - same tester
What is test validity
Does the test measure what it is supposed to measure?

What side do you transfer toward: strong or limited?
Strong side
What are the hip precautions for a THA posterolateral approach?
No hip flexion > 90 deg. No adduction/IR beyond neutral Do not cross legs Knees lower than hip when sitting No bending over in sit-to-stand Raised seats Pivot on strong side Sleep in supine with abduction pillow
What are the hip precautions for a THA anterolateral and lateral approach?
No hip extension, adduction, ER past neutral
No tailor sitting (combined flexion, abduction, ER)
No hip hyperextension when ambulating
What are radiographic findings in a patient with osteoarthritis?
Decreased joint space
