25
Q

stress responses –> combined factors

A

depression

anxiety

ulcers

LBP

chronic pain syndrome

26
Q

examination

A

mobility

skill

pt’s capacity

learning variables

27
Q

mobility –> examination

A

passive ROM

active ROM

stability

mobility control in fxn

28
Q

passive ROM –> mobility

A

normal/limited

tx

29
Q

limited passive ROM

A

joint

soft tissue

muscle tightness

muscle hypertonicity

30
Q

active ROM –> mobility

A

initiation and throughout range

31
Q

stability –> mobility

A

muscle synergy for stability

postural stability

32
Q

mobility control in fxn –> mobility

A

weight shifting

transitional movements

33
Q

skill –> examination

A

normal timing and sequencing for locomotion and manipulation

34
Q

what is patient’s capacity

A

ability to do work

35
Q

what is pt’s capacity a combination of

A

physiological stress

36
Q

physiological stress –> pt’s capacity

A

HR

BP

respiratory rate

intensity

duration

frequency

speed of movement

37
Q

learning variables –> exam

A

intensity of the stimuli

task repetition

variability of the procedure and environment to improve generalization

38
Q

what should be identified in the evaluation process

A

pt’s fxnal needs and desired outcomes

39
Q

what should the evaluation process assess

A

the physical impairments and environmental constraints to determine each one’s contribution to the limitation of fxn

40
Q

what should we examine in the evaluation process

A

limitations or impairments to try and find a cause

41
Q

what does the evaluation process include

A

determining the appropriate PT goals and interventions

re-assess after a specific period of time

change/modify interventions as necessary

refer to other practitioners if necessary

document accurately and appropriately

42
Q

interventions should be directed towards

A

the patient

43
Q

how many components of intervention

A

3

44
Q

3 components of intervention

A

activities

techniques

parameters

45
Q

activities –> interventions

A

postures

movements

46
Q

techniques –> interventions

A

to achieve movement control (mobility, stability, controlled mobility and skill)

47
Q

parameters –> interventions

A

to determine dosage of intensity, duration, frequency and variables of learning

48
Q

how does tx always start w/

A

activities the pt can perform and progress in difficulty to the fxnal outcome

49
Q

what could be varied by changing any component in tx

A

challenge/difficulty

50
Q

what happens if a pt’s status cannot change –> intervention

A

try to change the home, work or community environment

to decrease architectural barriers

51
Q

what do we need to look at relative to the environment –> intervention

A

postures needed for the activity

type of movement required

repetition, speed and duration requirements

52
Q

classification of pt’s impairments

A

primary and secondary

53
Q

primary impairments

A

direct result of pathology

54
Q

secondary impairments

A

secondary effect of pathology or result of improper care

55
Q

how should we plan interventions

A

to change those impairments that are changeable

pick and choose interventions from a variety of sources

cross systems

56
Q

what should we do throughout tx

A

provide compensatory aids and strategies as appropriate for safety and fxn

modify environmental constraints

educate pt, family and caregivers for carryover

57
Q
