ABI LL Treatment Flashcards
1
Q
Manual Facilitation
A
- Facilitating increased step length
- Facilitating first-contact and weight shift
- Stimulating foot release
- Stair training
2
Q
Early Facilitation
A
- Improve motor control of the affected limb
- Facilitate movements that will be later needed for gait
3
Q
Mirror Visual Feedback (MVF)
A
Improvement of sensory and perceptual function, to achieve motor control
Significant improvement in early stages for:
- PROM
- Step length
- Balance
4
Q
Overground Gait Training
A
Improve:
- AROM
- Balance during the gait cycle
High level of evidence in gait and LL after ABI, at very low cost
5
Q
Dual task training
A
Helps to reduce dual-task interference in daily activities beyond the clinic
6
Q
Minimal Assistance Strategy
A
The patient repeats gait cycle while executing UL/trunk tasks (dual task)
7
Q
Partial Body Weight Supported Treadmill Training (PBWSTT)
A
High level of significance in improving gait function after stroke
