output
throughput
feedback

27
Q

MOHO

3 parts of person

A

Volition- interest and personal causation
Habituation- habits/roles
Performance Capacity- skills for producing actions

28
Q

Occupational Science

A

thescienceof everyday living. focuses on the benefits of productive, social and physical activity (“occupations”) in people’s everyday lives
Treatment uses meaningful activities/occupations
Strive to provide person with a sense of competence against the backdrop of his/her culture

29
Q

Frame of Reference

A

provides direction for evaluation, treatment
It is the clinical link between theory and occupational therapy practice
Selection may be influenced by setting or patient population

30
Q

Frames of Reference for Physical Function-Biomechanical Focus

A

applied to people with LROM, decreased muscle strength and/or endurance, intact CNS
Focus is on performance skills in motor and sensory areas and regaining skills in areas of occupation
Uses the activity demands and considers client factors

31
Q

Biomechanical does not address

A

person’s performance patterns or context

32
Q

Reasons for Documentation

A
Legal  
Fosters communication within the discipline and with other disciplines 
Reimbursement from third party payers 
Decisions regarding d/c 
Quality Assurance 
Research
33
Q

Bio-mechanical Indicators of Dysfunction

A

Alteration in joint ROM, muscle strength, and/or endurance or instability which interferes with everyday occupations

34
Q

Bio-mechanical Treatment intervention

A

Prevention and maintenance (body mechanics, joint protection techniques, splints, positioning)
Restoration-aim is to increase the joint ROM, muscle strength and/or endurance and stability. Use gradation (increase duration or intensity of activities)
Compensation-limitation will always exist. Use adaptation

35
Q

Rehabilitation Frame of Reference Focus

A

Using compensation to regain independence

Considers the performance patterns and context as a prime focus of the evaluation and treatment process

36
Q

Rehabilitation Dysfunction

A

Not being able to do self care skills and/or manage home (safely and timely)
Problems interfering with work performance and/or leisure time activities

37
Q

Treatment strategies for the Rehabilitation

A
Use of adaptive equipment
Home/work modifications
Positioning or use of wheelchair
Use of splints 
Energy conservation techniques
Joint/body protection techniques
ergonomics
38
Q

Cognitive Disability FOR

A

Author is Claudia Allen and her focus is:
Originally used with psychiatric patients
Now expanded and used with clients with TBI, Alzheimer’s, Dementia, Individuals with Developmental Disability

39
Q

Cognitive Disability FOR Assumptions

A

Neuro problems always result in cognitive limitation, which leads to functional limitation
Mental illness results in permanent cognitive limitations
Neuro damage is irreversible and restricts new learning.
Abnormal brain function results in restricted voluntary motor action, so the person is unable to complete routine ordinary tasks.

40
Q

Cognitive Disability Dysfuntion

A

Abnormal brain function results in restricted voluntary motor action
Person is unable to complete routine ordinary tasks (e.g. self care, work, leisure)

41
Q

Cognitive Disability Treatment

A

Adapt the situation, environment, and activity
Focus on patient’s residual skills and working within patient’s limitations
Figure out level of cognitive function and match activities and demands appropriately (e.g. activity analysis)
Make changes in environment to help support patient functioning independently

42
Q

Cognitive Disability Acute Treatment

A

Make changes to environment to help reduce the symptoms or patient’s distress
Monitor patient daily via observation
Use activities of diversion to help support patient to sustain his/her strengths

43
Q

Cognitive Disability Goal

A

Discharge patient into the least restrictive environment possible

44
Q

Motor Control FOR includes

A

Rood
Bobath’s Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT)
Brunnstrom
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

45
Q

4 Motor Control FOR focus on

A

Coordinated movement patterns
Maintaining balance
All emphasize the CNS control of movement
There is no focus on performance patterns or context

46
Q

Motor Control FOR treatment strategies primarily focus on

A

performance skills and activity demands followed by functional activities to support areas of occupation

47
Q

Motor Control FOR treatment is directed at

A

motor dysfunction which occurs as a result of CNS damage

48
Q

Motor Control Assumptions

A

Normal developmental sequence to motor control
Motor control involves both posture (stability) and movement
Stability and voluntary control develop cephalcaudal and proximal to distal
There is plasticity of the CNS

49
Q

Bobath’s Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) Specific Assumptions

A

Postural control is foundation to all movement

You do not impose normal movement upon abnormal muscle tone

50
Q

NDT Patient Population

A

Cerebral Palsy

Hemiplegia due to CVA

51
Q

NDT Dysfunction

A
Abnormal muscle tone (hypertonic, hypotonic, fluctuating)
Abnormal posture (due to the abnormal muscle tone and/or persistent reflexes)
Abnormal movement (due to the abnormal muscle tone, abnormal posture, reflexes)
52
Q

NDT Treatment

A

Want to inhibit abnormal patterns of movement & posture via handling, positioning, use of key points of control

Goal is to replace the abnormal movement patterns with normal patterns of movement. Secondary result will be more normal sensory input to reinforce the normal movement patterns

53
Q

Assumptions Specific to Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

A

Normal motor develops from cephal to caudal and proximal to distal
Reflexes dominate early on in development and are integrated into voluntary motor behavior
Motor development requires multi-sensory learning
Normal movement and balance are dependent upon balanced interaction of antagonists

54
Q

PNF Dysfunction

A

Difficulty with motor control

Developed for Cerebral Palsy patients, people with Multiple Sclerosis, SCI and other orthopedic problems

55
Q

Focus of PNF Treatment

A

Stimulation of the proprioceptors (in the joints)
Use of reflexes to stimulate normal movement
Focus is on correcting imbalances between the antagonists
Facilitate stronger muscles to stimulate the weaker ones
Use of sensory cues to facilitate normal motor movement (touch, vision, auditory)
Use of diagonal and circular patterns of movement to reinforce normal patterns of movement

56
Q

ROOD

A

Focused on CP and hemiplegia patients
Felt sensory stimulation assisted with the development of normal muscle tone and motor responses
Treatment uses a lot of vibration, stroking, slow rolling from side to side, brushing, rubbing, followed by a functional motor movement

57
Q

Brunnstrom

A

there is belief to use whatever the patient may have. Sees the use of synergies as being ok and if used over and over then ultimately they get integrated into more normal patterns of movement

58
Q
