Q

Unilateral neglect

A

~inability to recognize half of your sensory form ½ your body that is not due to a sensory loss
~Usually left side
~pusher- push towards their affected side/ involved side
~The person will not know/ think about the involved side; the body wants to compensate and will push towards the involved side to try and make a new midline

Q

Topographical disorientation

A

~Map- if you want them to gym from their room, they wont remember how they got there (the twists and turns)
~They wont remember how to get to the restroom
~Very common in TBI and stroke; good reason to keep them in therapy

22
Q

Depth and distance perception

A

~Can be visual
~Do you where glasses? Near or far sighted?
~Stairs- can look like a slide or a wall; pouring into a glass; curves; potholes/ bumps in the ground

23
Q

Vertical disorientation

A

~Everyone is off by 10-15at first after stroke; not standing straight because they think the world is off tilted
~The world is off to them, so they walk funny/ at an angle
~
like you are walking through the crazy house
~Typically gets better; can occur in either type of stroke (right or left)

24
Q

Agnoias

A

~visual agnosia
~auditory agnosia
~tactile/ asterognosis

25
Q

Visual agnosia

A

~Has normal eye function/ their eyes work
~They have problems naming the object when they just looking at it
~If they can hold it, they can name it right away
~Just can’t process the visual pathways to say what it is

26
Q

Auditory agnosia

A

~They can still hear, but is a sound has a similar sound, it sound the same
~Inability to recognize/ decipher the sounds
~Bark and lightening; cell phone and an ambulance going down the street, voices will probably sounds similar
~Typically have other processing issues

27
Q

Tactile/ astereognosis

A

Cant tell you what it is when it is in your hand without looking at it

28
Q

Apraxias

A

~ideomotor
~ideational
~constructional
~dressing

29
Q

Ideomotor apraxia

A

~Breakdown btw concept and performance
~They can do the task but they cannot do the task when asked
~Can brush their teeth without thinking, but if you ask them to do it, they cant
~Can get it form an idea to a motor
~You can sometimes trick them into doing it (if you tell them to stand, they cant, but if you try and get them to get a drink of water, they will easily stand up)
~Also tend to perseverate (motor or verbal)- yes, yes, yes, yes or they keep doing the same action over and over again

30
Q

Ideational apraxia

A

~A complete failure of the conceptionalization of the task
~Cant even do the task
~Have no idea on how to put the tasks together to walk, stand up, roll over, etc

31
Q

Constructional apraxia

A

The ability to put parts together to make a whole (in the correct way)

32
Q

Dressing apraxia

A

~Are you able to dress properly

~Putting underwear on the outside, etc

33
Q

Non equilibrium tests

A

Does someone have coordination outside of balance; don’t have to know all these, but should know at least one for UE and LE for exams

34
Q

Non equilibrium tests- list

A

1) Finger-to-nose
2) Finger-to therapist’s finger
3) Finger-to-finger
4) Alternate nose-to-finger
5) Finger opposition
6) Mass grasp
7) Pronation/supination
8) Rebound test
9) Tapping (hand)
10) Tapping (foot)
11) Pointing and past pointing
12) Alternate heel-to-knee; heel-to-toe
13) Toe to examiner’s finger
14) Heel on shin (common)
15) Drawing a circle
16) Fixation or position holding

35
Q

Equilibrium test

A

Testing balance- berg’s, etc

36
Q

COM- stands for

A

Center of mass

37
Q

COM- male vs female

A

Men COM is around the navel, but females are lower because of hips

38
Q

Cone of stability

A

~if you take your COM to the limits of the BOSs without falling (leading forwards/ backwards/ side to side)
~After you fall, the person has a very small cone

39
Q

Retropulsion

A

~after the fall, fight standing up
~will push back so they will move backwards
~rigid extension

40
Q

BOS- stand for

A

Base of support

41
Q

BOS

A

~Feet: different when they are shoulder width, staggered, narrow, etc
~can be your butt when sitting- want 90/90/90 (hip, knee, ankles); moving forward and backwards will change BOS bc it changes where the feet are

42
Q

As you get older, your BOS will..

A

they get more narrow

43
Q

Balance

A

Maintaining your COM over your BOS

44
Q

Influence COM

A
~Large boobs
~Larger belly/ pregnancy

Q

Standing with assistive devices- cane
