Intro to MS Flashcards
(20 cards)
Primordial prevention
Preventing development of risk factors (e.g., genes)
Primary prevention
Preventing disease before onset
Secondary prevention
Early detection and treatment
Tertiary prevention
Reducing impact of disease or injury
Essential criteria:
It must be general enough
It must be specific enough
It should be integrated in education
It should be consistent with ICF and PCCM
The 4-Element Movement System Model
Motion
Force
Energy
Control
Motion:
ability of a joint or tissue to be moved passively.
Force:
ability of the contractile and noncontractile structures to produce movement and provide dynamic stability around joints during static and dynamic tasks.
Energy:
ability to perform sustained or repeated movements and is dependent on the integrated functioning of the cardiovascular, pulmonary, and neuromuscular systems.
Motor control:
ability to plan, execute, and adapt goal-directed movements such that they are accurate, coordinated, and efficient.
Personal Factors
Personal factors include items such as age, gender, comorbidities, self-efficacy, confidence, fear of movement, and motivation.
Personal factors that impact movement can be assessed via directed interviewing as well as standardized tools.
Environmental Factors
Environmental factors include items external to the patient that may influence movement, such as the support surface or terrain, weather conditions, and external distractions.
Environmental factors can be assessed during the patient interview, during a home or workplace assessment, and/or by evaluating the individual’s performance of the task in different environments
Motion
Common Tests & Measures
Passive ROM
Muscle length tests
Accessory motion tests
Soft-tissue palpation
Skin mobility
Neurodynamic tests
Motion
Intervention Strategies
Active/passive stretching
Stretching with muscle activation (e.g., hold-relax)
Manual therapy (mobilization/manipulation, soft tissue)
Prolonged static positioning/splinting
Neural gliding/tensioning
Force
Common Tests & Measures
MMT, dynamometry, 1RM, isokinetics
Force
Intervention Strategies
Strength training, isometrics, power training, load variation
Energy
Common Tests & Measures
Aerobic tests, vitals, respiratory measures
Energy
Intervention Strategies
Aerobic/interval training, inspiratory muscle training, energy conservation
Control
Common Tests & Measures
Sit-to-stand tests, task execution analysis, sensory/cognitive testing
Control
Intervention Strategies
Task practice, high-dose skill practice, VR, dual-task training
