1
Q

Name the traditional concepts of the Neurological motor control FORs

A
  • Reflexes occur in response to stimuli
    ex: palmar grasp in babies.
  • Hierarchical control and motor programming–movements are controlled top-down
  • Motor control is Cephalocaudal and Proximodistal–head to tail & trunk->out
  • The brain is plastic

20
Q

Neurological techniques provide __________strategies that used in cases of central nervous system __________

A

remedial, dysfunction

21
Q

NDT has an emphasis on _________

22
Q

NDT has an an emphasis on handling. This means more hands on involvement from the __________ and the patients do NOT perform challenges until __________ movement is obtained.

A

practitioner, normal

23
Q

Example(s) if NeuroDevelopmental treatment strategies include
A. Weight bearing on both extremities
B. Recognizing abnormal tone and synergies
C. Facilitating normal movements & inhibiting abnormal movements
D. Anterior Pelvic tilts(forward position of the pelvis)
E. Slow and controlled movements
F. Upright positioning
G. Relearning
H. All the above

A

H. ALL THE ABOVE

24
Q

Forward positioning of the pelvis is a neurodevelopmental treatment strategy also know as _____ _____ _____.

A

Anterior pelvic tilt

25
When using NeuroDevelopmental treatment, remediating foundational skills before complex skills means...
learning basic movements 1st, then complex movements and then integrating those movements into function.
26
When using NeuroDevelopmental treatment, muscle memory plays a role in experiencing _________ movement
normal
27
When using NeuroDevelopmental treatment, patients must have __________ control before expecting the limbs to move. This means we must ALWAYS start at the _____.
postural, PELVIS
28
In NeuroDevelopmental treatment, patients can only move _________ once muscle tone is ___________ with inhibition or facilitation.
typically, normalized
29
Patients can only move typically once muscle tone is normalized with inhibition or facilitation. Meaning: We must get the right _________ information to the _____, then learn typical patterns.
sensory, brain
30
Axial control includes the _____, _____, and _____.
head, neck, trunk
31
Automatic reactions include equilibrium, righting _________, and protective limb extension.
reactions
32
In the function/dysfunction continua of NeuroDevelopmental treatment, limb control focuses on scapula and pelvis mobility/__________ balance.
stability
33
Synergies can include
flexors and extensors
34
flexors and extensors are
synergies
35
Define muscle tone
the tension in a muscle while at rest
36
The tension in a muscle while at rest __________ _____.
muscle tone.
37
True or false | Muscle tone is the same as muscle strength
false
38
To facilitate limb control, the therapist uses
- dissociation of synergy patterns - Reflex inhibiting patterns - Limb weight shifts/place and hold - Rotational and reciprocal limb movements
39
To facilitate axial control. the therapist uses PAPA
Passive elongation Active weight shifts Passive pelvic tilts Active axial rotation
40
Tp facilitate automatic reactions, the therapist uses RD
Reflex inhibiting patterns | Desired combination of movement patterns
41
To facilitate muscle tone in cases of HYPOtonia, the therapist uses JJMW
Joint compression Joint traction Manual resistance Weight shifts
42
To inhibit HYPERtonia, the therapist uses | PRWP
Passive elongation Reflex inhibiting patterns Weight shifts Positioning
43
The NeuroDevelopmental Techniques (FOR) is heavy on _____ cues, uses many _____ cues, and stimulation of proprioceptors and _________.
sensory. verbal, reflexes.
44
List the bsic concepts of ROOD
- Normal movement patterns emerge from use of reflex patterns - Movement is subconscious
