66
Q

PNF initially for…

A

polio

LMN disorder

*can be used for neuro/ortho deficits

67
Q

PNF broken down

A

Proprioceptive–> regarding sensations of body pos. and mvmt

NMSK–> mm’s and nerves

Facilitation–> make easier, inc ease of performance of action or task

68
Q

Functional mvmts accomplished w/ 2 things:

A

Mass mvmt patterns of:

  1. limbs
  2. trunk mm’s
69
Q

PNF basics

Functional Mvmts

A
  • mass mvmts
  • all 3 planes
  • balance b/w agonist, antagonist, synergist
70
Q

PNF enhances: (5 things)

A
  1. stability
  2. mobility
  3. balance
  4. posture and/or coordination
71
Q

What does the effect of PNF really depend on?

A

Verbal cues!! — what you say

manual contacts!! — how you touch them

72
Q

Manual Contacts

Strength or Power

Proper manual contact does what?

A

INC strength of contraction

Can be on surface corresponding to desired direction mvmt (indirect)

OR

On skin OVER the mm in question (direct)

73
Q

Manual Contacts

Direction of Mvmt:

Tactile cues

A

Very strong!!

*specific cueing elicits MORE approp. response

mult. contacts or poor placement facilitates mvmt in WRONG DIRECTION

74
Q

In PNF

when it comes to resistance….

A
  • use the “correct” amount
    • this could just be assistance
      • ​literally having them “assist” w/ the mvmt
        • “Ok now you do it WITH me”
75
Q

In PNF…

Using the appropriate resistance elicits smooth contraction

Not too easy or too hard

results in:

A
  • INC mm fiber recruitment
  • INC kinesthetic awareness by INC force of contraction
76
Q

Types of Contraction:

Consider the type you want!!!

Concentric:

A
  • Commands
    • “push” or “pull”
77
Q

Types of Contraction:

Consider the type you want!!!

Eccentric:

A
  • Kinesthetic awareness
    • Commands:
      • “Let go slowly”
78
Q

Types of Contraction:

Consider the type you want!!!

Isometric

A
  • Intention:
    • maint. position against external resist.
  • PT matches force gen’d by pt
  • Commands:
    • ​“hold still”
    • “don’t let me move you”
79
Q

Types of Contraction:

Maintained or Stabilizing

*NOT an isometric, per se*

A
  • using a contraction to “initiate” the mvmt
  • start w/ concentric contraction in which PT allows only minimal motion FOLLOWED BY STOPPING MVMT (isometric)
80
Q

Types of Contraction:

Maintained or Stabilizing

Used to facilitate what?

A
  • facilitates stabilization
    • ​treats deficits of strength or kinesthesia t/o ROM
81
Q

Types of Contraction:

Maintained or Stabilizing

Commands:

A
  • “Keep it there”
  • “don’t let go”

so essentially… you will initiate the mvmt and bring them thru some kind of ROM….then at various points in the ROM you STOP the mvmt (isometric) and have them HOLD it in that one particular spot!!!

82
Q

4 Neurophys. basis for PNF

A
  1. Irradiation
  2. Successive Induction
  3. Reciprocal Inhibition
  4. Autogenic Inhibition
83
Q

PNF:

Irradiation

A
  • spread mm response from one mm group to another by altering emphasis of resistance
84
Q

PNF:

Successive Induction

A
  • INC’d response of agonist AFTER contraction of its antagonist
85
Q

PNF:

Reciprocal Inhibition

A
  • facilitation of agonist results in simultaneous inhibition of antagonist

Contraction an agonist RELAXES its antagonist

ex. bridging— fires EXT’s, FLEX’s relax

86
Q

PNF:

Autogenic Inhibition

A
  • STRETCH ASPECT OF PNF
  • Stimulation of GTO’s results in MM relaxation
  • This is your PNF stretching that you know already!!!
