Q

(UMN or LMN) Which would benefit more from hierarchical and/or heterarchical models of rehab? Why?

A

UMN due to LMN requiring sensory input/feedback

Q

What are the 4 major biomechanical subcomponents of gait?

A

Propulsion
Postural stability
Limb swing
Stance control

17
Q

Human gait kinematics uses ____ to conserve energy

A

gravity

18
Q

During split-belt treadmill training, a person with stroke who takes a longer step with the paretic leg and a shorter step with nonparetic leg during regular walking would need to walk on the TM with the paretic leg on the (slow/fast) belt.

A

slow belt

This will cause the person to take an even longer step with the paretic leg and an even shorter step with the nonparetic leg- it will enhance the asymmetry. Over time the person will correct the assymmtery by lengthening the nonparetic leg step and shortening the paretic leg step. When the belts are returned to the same speed the person will cont. this adjusted pattern thus improving their overall pattern. With improved step length asymetry.

19
Q

(true/false) Results indicate split-belt treadmill training with the shorter step length on the fast belt has the potential to improve step length symmetry in individuals poststroke

A

true

20
Q

What is most often used during gait training in those with PD?

A

cueing

21
Q

Rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) is commonly used with what diagnosis?

A

PD

22
Q

What type of training is described below?

  • Challenging but safe
  • Progressive and adaptable
  • Interesting and meaningful
A

task-oriented training
