Mobility Flashcards
define progression, stability and adaptation in mobility training.
progression- getting from point A to point B, CAN they do it? (1st step)
stability- ok, now that they CAN DO it, how STABLE are they while they do it? LOBs, CGA, min A, maintain post. control? (2nd step)
adaptation: ok, now that they CAN do it and are fairly STABLE, can they respond to changes while doing it? uneven terrain, getting bumped, etc. (3rd step)
a person practicing sit to stand who stands up all the way but then immediately grabs onto the side table or reaches for his AD has a problem with which part of the mobility training?
stability-> can’t go from wide BOS (chair and feet) to narrow one (just feet)
a person who can’t get all the way up but just falls back into the chair every time they practice sit to stand has a problem with which part of mobility training?
progression
a person who can always get up from a firm chair with arms at the dining room table but can never get out of the soft barka lounger has a problem with which part of the mobility training?
adaptation
what are the steps to a momentum strategy STS transfer?
1- upper body leans forward
2- buttocks leave seat
3- lift/extension of legs
4- stabilization on new BOS in standing position
what is the critical point, the point of no return when doing a STS transfer?
when buttocks leave the seat
where do the largest amount of public falls occur?
in stair descent
why do older ppl struggle with stairs?
vision, concentric and eccentric strength
What is the Rivermead motor assessment?
gross function test of sit unsupported supine to sit sit to stand transfers w/c to chair each side stairs other high level walking tasks
What is the STREAM?
mobility test: rolling supine to sidelying bridgeing supine to sit sit to stand other standing/walking activities
stroke EDGE taskforce good mobility measures
5x SS FIM STREAM Rivermead Postural assessment scale for stroke BERG TUG DGI
