Cerebellum Flashcards
For control of balance and eye movement
VESTIBULOcerebellum
For planning and initiation of movement
PONTOcerebellum
For synergy (controls rate, force, range, direction of movement)
SPINOcerebellum
Lack of muscle coordination that includes delay in initiation, poor execution of movement sequence and failure to perform rapid alternating movements (dysdiadochokinesia)
ATAXIA
Low frequency tremor whose amplitude increases as an extremity approaches the endpoint of deliberate and visually guided movement
Intention Tremor
Failure of antagonistic muscle to contract after removal of resistance to limb movement
Absent Rebound Phenomenon
The only OUTPUT of the cerebellar cortex
