it is fundamental to an individual’s overall development and functioning in the occupations and is essential to quality of life
Mobility
this includes moving from one position or place to another
functional mobility
this serves as the foundation to perform different occupations
functional mobility
defects that child is born with
congenital anomalies
defects through accident or disease that can be mild or transitory
acquired disabilities
theory that stating that newborn have little independent control of any parts of the body
-defines that mobility develops as we age
Developmental Theory of Mobility
the order of mobility that infant experiences
rolling - side to supine - prone to supine

motor and sensory symmetry and midline orientation
controlled purposeful movement
alternating coordinated movement
4 classes of mobility skills (triangle)
Class 1: use of support walker and power wheelchair
Class 2: Independently propel a manual wheelchair, ambulate in walker (indoor), power wheelchair (community mobility)
Class 3: Variety of mobility methods during transition period
Class 4: Variety of mobility methods during transition period
Identify which category is defined
(e.g. CP, severe muscular atrophy)
childre that have no opportunity for independent mobility
- children who will never ambulate
Identify which category is defined
children with CP but with less involvement and myelomeningocele with UE involvement
-can ambulate but with limited speed and short period
- children with inefficient mobility
unable to move a a reasonable rate/speed or acceptable endurance
in 3rd classification, this defines children who lost their independent mobility via trauma and progressive neuromuscular disorders
t/f
true
3rd classification is more critical than the first 2 classifications
t/f
false
define what is in the 4th classification of mobility skills
