26
impact on occupational performance influenced by
size, location, depth of burn
27
greatest potential to impact occupational performance
deep partial thickness burn full thickness burn burns involving major joints larger burn areas
28
RA (Rheumatoid arthritis)
leading cause of disability in the US
29
common symptoms of RA
redness warmth swelling/inflammation of joints general feeling of sickness, fatigue, weight loss usually affects same joints on both sides of body may develop suddenly, within weeks, or months most often begins between ages 25 and 50
30
joint guarding
self bracing, frequent response with RA and JRA due to pain with movement
31
specific characteristics of RA
``` subcentral cysts erosions/sinuses in affected joints rebuilding of osteophytes ulnar deviation in MCP joints multiple joints that are bilaterally affected ```
32
swan neck
PIP joint into hyperextension, and DIP into flexion
33
boutonniere
inability to extend the PIP joint, PIP flexion and DIP hyperextension. appearance of a buttonhole
34
JRA (juvenile rheumatoid arthritis)
onset must occur before age 16, with involvement of one or more joints for at least 6 weeks typical onset occurs between ages 1 and 6, no gender bias
35
RA impact on occupational performance
fatigue, difficulty with fine motor ADLs, pain and lifestyle changes, energy conservation needed, using joint protection
36
SPINAL CORD INJURY
leading cause is MVA | followed by falls and acts of violence
37
incidence and prevalence of SCI
80 percent are male | mean age for SCI is 34.7 years old
38
Complete SCI
complete transection of spinal cord, all pathways are interrupted, total loss of motor and sensory function below the injury
39
UMN injury
- loss of voluntary movement below injury - spastic paralysis - no muscle atrophy - hyperactive reflexes
40
LMN injury
loss of voluntary function below injury - flaccid paralysis - muscle atrophy - absence of reflexes
41
Incomplete SCI
damage to spinal cord does not cause a total transection. Still some degree of sensation and movement below level of injury.
42
UMN and LMN injuries can be...
complete or incomplete
43
spinal shock
period of altered reflex activity lasting 1 week to 3 months after injury. flaccid paralysis or absence of reflexes bladder is flaccid resulting in catheterization
44
Respiratory complications with SCI
R. complications are most common cause of death following a SCI
45
deep vein thrombosis
can be a serious complication in SCI because 1. reduced circulation caused by decreased tone 2. frequency to direct trauma of legs causing vascular damage 3. prolonged bed rest greatest risk of DVT is within 2 weeks post injury
46
signs of DVT
swelling in LEs, redness, low grade fever
47
thermal regulation
``` function of ANS that can be disturbed post SCI maintaining body temperature is often a problem for injury above T6 ```
48
spasticity
almost all SCI experience spasms triggered by pressure sores, positioning, infections, UTIs excessive spasticity results in contractures
49
heterotopic ossification
abnormal formation of bone deposits on muscles, joints, and tendons. occurs mostly at hips and knees signs are heat, pain and swelling
50
spastic bowel
can use touch to encourage the bowel to relax, sometimes a suppository is also needed to get the job done
51
flaccid bowel
cannot be stimulated to relax farther. it will not push the stool out on its own. manual removal of the bowel
52
dermal complications
SCI loss sensation and feeling in areas. Wont be able to feel pain, heat, pressure etc. People are not immediately aware they are being injured
53
pathologic fracture
bone weakened by conditions such as osteoarthritis and osteoporosis that can't sustain normal forces, fractures during daily activities
54
incidence of fractures
falls are leading cause of fractures in older adults
55
malunion
fracture heals in abnormal position. factors include muscle imbalance, inadequate protection/positioning
56
nonunion
bone is not healing, significant functional deficits in ROM, strength and coordination
57
Osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease)
non inflammatory joint disease resulting in deterioration of articular cartilage and formation of new bone on joint surface
58
signs and symptoms of OA
joint pain, inflammation, stiffness, tender, limited ROM, crepitus
59
osteoporosis
low bone density and deterioration of bone, common in post menopausal women due to low estrogen
60
signs and symptoms of osteoporosis
gradual with few symptoms, pain, height loss, kyphosis
61
osteopenia
reversible weakening of bone, once osteopenia turns into osteoporosis bone regeneration is no longer reversible
62
signs and symptoms of osteopenia
predecessor to osteoporosis with no signs, diagnosed through bone density scan
63
unipolar depression
without mood variances
64
major depressive episode
min 2 week period of depressed or irritable mood
65
Bipolar 1
extreme mood swings, mania-depression, may present with delusions and hallucinations
66
bipolar 2
history of MDD (major depressive disorder) and at least 1 hypomanic episode. less intense mood and energy elevation
67
cyclothymia
chronic but less severe mood disturbance. hypomanic and depressive symptoms
68
flight of ideas
rapidly changing, disconnected thoughts
69
psychomotor agitation
increased physical movements that are purposeless and reflective of agitated state
70
psychosis
delusions and hallucinations without insight
71
anhedonia
lack of interest in previous pleasurable activities
72
euphoria
highly elevated exaggerated mood
73
avolition
lack of drive or ambition
74
major depressive disorder
depressed mood, altered sleep, feelings of worthlessness, thoughts of suicide childhood symptoms: clingy, overly needy, irritable, behavior problems in school
75

grandiosity, min need for sleep, flight of ideas, dangerous behavior, excessive goal directed activity, talkative
76
co-occurring conditions in MDD and BPD
obesity, anxiety, diabetes, cardiovascular and pulmonary disease more likely to abuse alcohol and drugs
77
bipolar disorder prodromal period
1-7 years pre onset noted by fluctuations in energy increase and dysregulated mood, recovery from 1st episode is uncommon, first 2 years high risk of relapse
78
SCHIZOPHRENIA
most severe, complex of all mental health disorders. | progressive brain disorder that can be treated, not cured
79
schizophrenia signs and symptoms
affects impulse control, judgement, social skills, affects ones self awareness that they have a disability, delusions, hallucinations, disorganized thinking, catatonia
80

abstract reasoning and planning skilled affected, language, attention, ability to process visual stimuli decreases, mean IQ of 80-85
84
schizophrenia course and prognosis
onset can be gradual or acute, some people can still work, others require 24 hr care, delusions and hallucinations decline intensity in late middle ages, cognitive impairment, shorter life span by 12-25 years, high risk of death from MVA
85

90
substance/medical induced psychotic disorder
delusions or hallucinations due to medications or exposure to toxin
91
Multiple sclerosis (MS)

92
MS symptoms
numbness, disturbance in pain sensation, hypersensitivity, spasticity, low energy, weakness, tremor, visual disturbances, short term memory loss, depression or euphoria
93
MS rule of thumb
MS does not significantly decrease pt life expectancy. complications result from inactivity or reoccurring infections can cause premature death.

MS diagnosis
pt has episodes of exacerbation and remission and slow or step by step progression over 6 months
95
MS medical treatment
antispasmodics, muscle relaxants, and anticonvulsants
96
