Q

Discrepancy

A
  • Tendon not intact: Laceration or an avulsion of a tendon (need a repair, rest)
  • Muscle weakness: Need strengthening
  • Pain: Increased during contraction
  • Scar tissue: (in hand or finger after surgery); restricted in the amount of range of motion that they’re allowed to perform for a long time (scar tissue adhering to different soft tissue in the hand)

Q

Tape Measure to measure edema

A

We use a millimeter tape measure, larger parts of body when it’s not proven to submerge a body part in water
-Recent surgery, and they had sutures and weren’t supposed to submerge the body part into water, then we would use a tape measure rather than a volume meter

Q

Volume meter to measure edema

A

Used to measure edema in an entire hand.

  • If we only wanted to measure one finger, then we could use a millimeter tape measurement
  • Volume meter gold standard more accurate but tape more common
  • Measures mass of a body part by looking at water displacement as measured by a graduated cylinder

Q

Gross Manual Muscle Testing*

A
  • When we just want our clients to get up and moving (bathroom or to get up and get dressed)
  • Not seeing them for a specific muscle weakness or impairment, but maybe something more generalized, like in a skilled nursing facility or in an inpatient facility
  • Person wasn’t allowed to move their body part in a full range of motion– if they had lifting restrictions, then you would not perform mmt
  • Wouldn’t perform mmt after fractures or surgeries or injuries until it was cleared by the physician

  • Isotonic, Concentric, Eccentric, Isometric
54
Q

Isotonic (Type 2, Fast Twitch)

A

Eccentric and Concentric

55
Q

Concentric Contraction (Type 2, Fast Twitch)

A

The muscle shortens the moving limb in the same direction of the muscle pull (Picking up a dog)

56
Q

*Eccentric Contraction (Type 2, Fast Twitch)

A

The contracted muscle moves like a break against the external force, creating a smooth and controlled movement (quadriceps as you descend stairs or hill.)

57
Q

*Isometric (Type 2, Fast Twitch)

A

Contracted muscle is neither shortened nor lengthened. (holding a grocery bag)

58
Q

Aerobic Exercise

A
  • Exercise that is rhythmic, involves the use of large muscle groups, and can be maintained
  • Depend on aerobic metabolism to extract energy from carbohydrates, amino acids, and fatty acids
  • Dancing, cycling, swimming, and hiking
  • People of all ages and conditions such as heart disease, arthritis, diabetes, and cancer
  • Energy that may be inhaled via oxygen intake??
59
Q

Anaerobic Exercise

  • Muscles are fueled by the existing energy sources contained within the contracting muscle
  • Sprinting, power lifting, and high intensity interval training
60
Q

Open Chain Exercise

A
  • The distal end of the extremity is not fixed to a stable surface.
  • Bicep curls, shoulder shrugs, knee extension, and hamstring curls
61
Q

Closed Chain Exercises

The distal end is fixed (considered more functional)

  • Body is being moved either to or away from the stabilized extremity
  • Pull-ups, pushups, dips, squats, and deadlifts
62
Q

Exercise Dosing

A

A careful systematic approach to increasing the client’s strength or endurance

63
Q

For strength to increase… (exercise dosing)

A

An increase of stress or resistance on the muscles is needed

64
Q

After reviewing medical history, conducting an occupational profile, and completing an evaluation, therapists should… (exercise dosing)

A

Utilize clinical judgment as well as the information gathered from the standardized equipment and manual muscle testing to determine a starting point

65
Q

How to start exercise dosing

A

Start by determining a client’s one-repetition maximum, or more simply stated, one rep max

66
Q

One Rep Max (exercise dosing)

A

Highest weight a muscle can move through the available range of motion for just one time

67
Q

Intensity Training Program (exercise dosing)

A

Can be determined based on a percentage of that maximum amount

68
Q

Initial Stages of their Rehabilitation (exercise dosing)

A
  • Prescribe an exercise regimen at a lower percentage, such as 40 to 60% of the client’s one rep max
  • Progress, 80% one rep max
69
Q

Parameters that may be manipulated to increase strength include: (exercise dosing)

A

Volume, rest, velocity, type of contraction, and exercise frequency

70
Q

Training Volume (exercise dosing)

A

The number of reps and sets performed during one session multiplied by the resistance used

71
Q

Strengthen the Muscles (exercise dosing)

A

Fewer repetitions and greater resistance are recommended

72
Q

Improve Muscle Endurance (exercise dosing)

A

More reps and less resistance

73
Q

The period of rest between the lifting should be lengthened when… (rest- exercise dosing)

A

Performing a high-intensity activity or exercise

74
Q

The period of rest should be shortened when…

A

Intensity is lower or there are fewer reps to complete

75
Q

*When lifting heavy loads and high reps the rest breaks should be… (rest- exercise dosing)

A

Equal rest breaks of three to four minutes long

76
Q

When lifting low loads and low reps rest breaks should be… (rest- exercise dosing)

A

Equal rest breaks of one to two minutes long

77
Q

To determine the velocity and type of muscle contraction for a strengthening program consider… (exercise dosing)

A

The physical capabilities of the client and the demands of the task

78
Q

Dynamic, Concentric Muscle Contractions (exercise dosing)

A

The muscle’s velocity can be manipulated to match the demands of the activity

79
Q

Faster Dynamic Concentric Muscle Contractions (exercise dosing)

A

Can simulate the demands of a sports activity such as basketball

80
Q

Slower Dynamic Concentric Contractions

A

Can be used to simulate an activity such as painting

81
Q

Dynamic Eccentric Muscle Contractions (exercise dosing)

A

The load is easier to control and therefore takes less effort.
-Lowering a weight will take less effort from the client than lifting it

82
Q

Active Eccentric Exercises

A

Ideal for our clients that are very weak

83
Q

Isometric Strengthening (exercise dosing)

A

Beneficial when strengthening is warranted, but there’s limited joint movement or the joint movement is contraindicated, as sometimes seen in soft tissue repairs

84
Q

Why should individuals with cardiovascular issues such as hypertension not engage in isometric strengthening?

A

Because they can potentially lead to increases in heart rate and blood pressure

85
Q

Exercise Frequency (exercise dosing)

A

Based on the patient’s goals, the rest needed for muscle recovery, and their willingness to adhere to an exercise program at home

86
Q

Beginning a new exercise program (exercise dosing)

A
  • Prescribe exercise 2-3 days a week

- Increased to 3-5 days a week as the client’s strength improves

87
Q

Active Stretching

A

Occupational therapists utilize occupation-based tasks to actively stretch shortened tissues

88
Q

How to stretch a client with contractures

A
  • Provide the client with an occupation that requires slow, repetitive, isotonic contractions targeting the muscle that is opposite the contracture, or by creating a position that requires a prolonged passive stretch of the contracted tissue
  • Require a range slightly beyond the client’s limitation
89
Q

Contract Relax

A
  • Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique
  • Engages the tight or contracted muscle in an isometric contraction held against resistance for 3 to 10 seconds
  • During the relaxation phase, the therapist will move the part in the opposite direction of the contraction and hold it
  • Ex. Contracted elbow extensors: Place the elbow in as much flexion as available, then instruct your client to maximally contract the extensors isometrically and then relax; Smoothly flex the elbow into a range greater than the initial one
90
Q

Passive Stretching

A

Often used as a preparatory method to increase the range of motion

91
Q

Manual Stretching

A
  • Environment should be calming to the patient
  • Explain to your client what you’re doing, explain what you’re stretching, for how long you’ll hold each stretch, and remind them that the pain should be tolerable
  • Stabilize the bone distal and proximal to the joint being moved to avoid compensatory movements
  • Move the extremity slowly and gently in the line of the muscle pull to the point of maximum stretch
  • Encourage clients to participate if possible
  • Hold the limb at a point of maximum stretch for 15 to 60 seconds
  • Relief should be felt immediately following the release
  • If client complains of residual pain, future stretching should be executed at a slower rate and with less force
  • Use of orthotics like splints and casts
92
Q

Strengthening Interventions

A

Can include things like muscle reeducation, biofeedback, progressive resistance exercises, and electrical stimulation

93
Q

Isometric Strengthening

A
  • A trace(1) muscle grade or the force of the contraction is not enough to move the part
  • Instruct the client to contract and hold the weak muscle
  • Maximum effort, the client should hold the contraction as long as possible while breathing normally
  • Repeat this exercise 10 times
  • Duration of holding the contraction will increase as they get stronger
94
Q

Dynamic Assistive Strengthening

A
  • Also known as the active assistive range of motion is used with clients demonstrating poor minus or fair minus strength
  • Poor minus (2-) strength, you must ensure the client is in a gravity eliminated plane
  • Fair minus, the limb should be placed so that it may move against gravity
  • The therapist would provide external force to complete the motion
95
Q

Dynamic Active/AROM Strengthening

A
  • Appropriate for clients with poor or fair strength
  • Muscle strength grade of two, ensure the limb is in a gravity eliminated position
  • For a muscle strength grade three, make sure they are moving against gravity
  • Move the weak muscle through their full available range of motion
  • Repeating the motion for 3 sets of 10 repetitions with rest breaks taken between sets
96
Q

Dynamic Active Resistant/Active Resistance Range of Motion Strengthening

A
  • Reserved for clients demonstrating poor plus, fair, fair plus, good, and good plus
  • Poor plus and fair muscle, ensure the limb is positioned in a gravity eliminated position
  • Fair plus and higher, the limbs should be moved against gravity
  • Client will move the weak muscle through their full available range of motion against resistance
  • 3/4 sets of 10 reps may be prescribed with rest breaks taken between each set.
97
Q

Manual Muscle Testing Procedures

A
98
Q

Improving Endurance

A
  • Low-intensity muscle contractions with a higher or larger number of repetitions over an extended period until the muscle is overloaded
  • Clients being rehabilitated at 40 to 60% of their one-rep max should lift light to moderate loads greater than 15 reps with less than 90 second rest periods
99
Q

Optimizing Motor Planning and Performance

A

Absence of mechanical constraints, adequate postural control, kinesthetic understanding of what the task requires, understanding of what constitutes success for this task, and a match between the individual’s abilities and task demands

100
Q

Freedom from Mechanical Constraints

A
  • Joint Mobility
  • Dissociation
  • Poor Postural Alignment
  • Freedom from Secondary Impairment
  • Capacity to Generate Muscle Contractions
101
Q

Joint Mobility (freedom from mechanical constraints)

A
  • Impaired by scar tissue, tissue shortening, edema
  • Weakness, spasticity, or an impairment of tone, motor planning or motor control, tissues can lose their distance ability
  • Immobility will lead to shortening of soft tissues, starting with muscles and tendons, and eventually leading to shortening of tissues at the joint capsule
  • Acquired brain injury from either a stroke or a traumatic brain injury
102
Q

Dissociation (freedom from mechanical constraints)

A
  • The ability of the body segments to move independently of one another
  • Appropriate muscle length
103
Q

Poor Postural Alignment (freedom from mechanical constraints)

A
  • Due to musculoskeletal imbalance can negatively affect balance, transfers, gait, and engagement in a variety of occupations, as well as presenting a safety risk
  • Post-stroke, we often see a posterior lateral pelvic tilt, which can be towards or away from the paretic side
  • We want center of mass within BOS
104
Q

maladaptive behaviors (poor postural alignment- freedom from mechanical constraints)

A
  • CNS dysfunction
  • Shift weight from an involved lower extremity, even when it is not necessary
  • Overly rely on a wider base of support, or they may excessively hold on to objects for postural stability
105
Q

Freedom from Secondary Impairment (freedom from mechanical constraints)

A

Edema & pain

106
Q

Recovering from an acquired brain injury can not rely on the natural kinesiological mechanisms for typical movement

A
  • A learned nonuse
  • Part of the original presentation of the client’s impairment is due to cell death, and part is due to restricted cerebral blood flow, restricted cerebral metabolism, and edema in the brain
  • Latter group began to improve, the client experiences improvement in motor capacity
  • Client does not necessarily know that it has returned and they may not use these abilities as they return
  • Aware of some return in motor capacity, but may find it too difficult to use functionally, and so continue to use the uninvolved upper extremity for all tasks
  • Lack of use makes the client more vulnerable to the secondary deficits that we have discussed previously, such as loss of range of motion and edema.
107
Q

When motor memory is impacted…

A

We must utilize the principles of motor learning

108
Q

Praxis:

A
  • Ability to analyze the motor requirements of a task and determine the best solutions to potential problems that may arise when performing the task
  • Analyze the task and the environment in which it is to be performed in order to create an appropriate motor plan for that task
  • Connections between various neural networks allow us to plan for the task and to utilize feedforward control
109
Q

Feedforward control occurs… (praxis)

A

Before an individual makes contact

110
Q

Feedforward mechanism allows us to… (praxis)

A

Make adjustments in the middle of a task and to be successful at that task

111
Q

Feedback occurs after… (praxis)

A

A task has been performed and it’s in response to errors

112
Q

Brunnstrom’s Stages of Recovery

A
  1. Flaccid, no voluntary movement, no tone, no reflexes
  2. Reflexive synergies present, spasticity begins
  3. Voluntary movement in synergy can have significant spasticity
  4. Spasticity is decreasing, beginning to be able to perform movements that slightly deviate from synergy
  5. Isolated voluntary movement increasingly independent from synergy
  6. Minimal spasticity, isolated motor control
  7. Typical speed and coordination
