Biomechanical FOR 1 Flashcards
What did Baldwin do
Was the first person to analyze activities and to determine the use of joints and muscles during purposeful activities
What terms did Taylor coin
Passive range of motion
active assistive range of motion
resistive extension
muscle Reeducation
What is the theoretical base consist of for the biomechanical frame of reference
Kinetics
kinematics
A&P
What Is kinetics
Forces that balance and stabilize and dynamic forces that mobilize
What is kinematics
The study of form of motion
look at velocity and speed of movement
how forces act on the body as it moves in space
What is A&P
Look at tissue elasticity healing and muscle strength and how much energy is expended during an activity
What are some assumptions of the biomechanical for
Motion underlies all performances and daily occupation
purposeful activities can be used to remediate deficits in range of motion strength and endurance
once regained the individual automatically regain function
the principle of rest and stress applies
need to have an intact brain
Causes of decreased joint range of motion
Connective tissue surrounding the joint can limit full-motion edema scarring injury adhering of tissue around joint
What are the components in capacity of motion
Joint range of motion
strength-force = movement
Endurance
What is endurance
The ability to sustain muscle activity overtime
What is endurance dependent on
Amount of oxygen needed and the amount of work completed
What do you need to create strength
Stability and motion
What Happens when you exert force
You get movement
Movement does what
Either stabilizes or moves us
When Does dysfunction occur in strength
Disease or trauma and partners that innervate these muscles or tissues of extremity (ALS, GB, Lou Gehrig)
