Q

Purpose of the AIMS- Alberta infant motor scale

A

Screen infants for motor delays and identify those that require early intervention

The Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) is a standardised observational examination tool used to assess the maturation of gross motor skills of infants from term (i.e. 40 weeks gestation) to 18 months post-term.

The AIMS was developed as a reference guide for the development of infants based on the age related norms of 2200 infants in Alberta, Canada

41
Q

What does the APGAR scale evaluate?

A

APGAR scale- A is appearance, Pis pulse, G is grimace, A is activity, R is respiration.

42
Q

A therapist completes a developmental assessment on a three year old child. Which reflex is stimulated by a sudden change in the position of the head in relation to the trunk?

A. Moro
B. grasp
C. tonic labyrinthine
D. extensor thrust

A

A

Q

Chelsea is a 10 year old girl with Cerebral Palsy. She has right sided weakness with all major muscles having grade 3+ strength. Chelsea also has a minor learning deficit, poor attention, and an impairment of the organization, planning and execution of physical activity. Because of these deficits, she does not have many friends as she can’t keep up with the games they play. Chelsea is able to walk indoors with an aid, uses a power chair outdoors or for long trips, and needs assistance to go up stairs.

  1. An impairment of the organization, planning and execution of physical activity is called:

a. Mental retardation
b. Psychomotor impairment
c. Dyspraxia
d. Dyskinesia

A

C

Psychomotor impairment - Incorrect
Involves a slowing-down of thought and a reduction of physical movements. This is commonly associated with depression.

• Dyspraxia - An impairment of the organization, planning and execution of physical activity is called dyspraxia.

• Dyskinesia -Is an impairment of voluntary movement.

As her physiotherapist, you encourage her to join a Special Olympics program or an adapted sports league so that she can increase her physical activity and make friends with kids her age. Under the International Classification of Functioning (ICF) framework, which domain would playing a sport be classified as?

a. Body structure and function
b. Participation
c. Activity
d. Personal factors

A

B

• Body Structures are anatomical parts of the body such as organs, limbs and their components.

• Participation -Participation is involvement in a life situation and in this situation it would be playing on a sports team.

• Activity - Activity is the execution of a task or action by an individual.
• Activity, as it relates to sports, is the execution of a movement such as throwing a ball.

• Personal factors are comprised of features of the individual that are not part of a health condition or health states.
Factors include gender, race, age, fitness, lifestyle, habits and coping styles.
