16
Q

What is homolateral limb synkinesis

A

Flex of involved arm causes flex on involved leg

17
Q

What is souques

A

Raising of involved UE above shoulder level causes fingers to abduct and extend

18
Q

What’s ramistes phenomenon

A

Resistance to ab/adduction of uninvolved LE results in similar of involved LE

19
Q

What is a typical cva UE synergy

A

Arm is addicted and IR. Elbow flexed. Forearm probated. Wrist and fingers flexed

20
Q

What approach is PNF

A

Integration because it makes you cross midline

21
Q

What are external control parameters

A

Regulatory conditions or object affordances, they influence a persons plan of action for executing a task

22
Q

What are internal control parameters

A

Body alignment, muscle length/strength that influence the motor program for a task
