Q

Developmental theory of mobility

A

Progression of physical and psychological capacities are interconnected and early experiences influence subsequent behavior (560). motor skills, vision, auditory capacities, and proprioception–> explore the environment and interacting with others –>interactions cognitive, social, sensory, motor abilities, and a child’s sense of self grows.

16
Q

Term for dependent children discharging home

A

“inter-reliance”

17
Q

primary goal in acute care

A

Preventing secondary disability and restoring performance

18
Q

primary prevention

A

Efforts that decrease the likelihood of accidents, violence, or disease for everyone

19
Q

secondary and tertiary prevention

A

Specific interventions, arrangement of care systems, and environmental modifications to prevent the onset of problems in at-risk populations

20
Q

prevention measures in acute care

A

Positioning, prevention of aspiration, provision of orientation, reduce stresses, prevent self-injury, complications from immobilization, abnormal muscle tone

21
Q

Neuromuscular and musculoskeletal complications tx

A
Maintain or regain normal ROM
Handling techniques
slow stretch and joint mobilization 
Positioning and splinting techniques
Improve movement and strength through play
22
Q

Musculoskeletal and lower motor neuron unit disorders tx

A

progressive exercise and activity routines

23
Q

Wound healing and protection of insensate skin

A

Apply care, monitor skin, prevent pressure ulcers, help develop tolerance to new position or orthotics

24
Q

Prevention emphasis

A

Programs ensure safety w/ physical activities and handling objects

25
Q

TBI -> perceptual, cog, and beh impairment tx

A

environmental modifications
compensation for disorientation and memory loss, least restrictive environment, create a stimulating and more comforting environment
when child is more alert, may use an educational approach alongside behavioral interventions, inform of rules and post them - maintain boundaries, daily orientation programs and memory books ease burden of confusion, teach family about perceptual and cognitive impairments, create programs to help ensure orientation, safety, and comfort

26
Q

Resuming and Restoring Occupational Performance (2nd level of priority)

A

Prevent dependent behavior, early emphasis on choices, AD or modifications, learning of new performance methods, instructional aids, restoration of lost skills and function (biomechanical and sensorimotor techniques) therapeutic activities, exercise
splinting, positioning, facilitation of movement
use of biomedical devices (estim) modalities,
Perceptual-cognitive and rehabilitative approaches, Adapting ADLs, joint protection, work simplification

27
Q

ICU OT

A

Eval and treat at bedside, immobility can lead to contractures, generalized weakness w/ decreased endurance, cardiopulmonary compromise, maintain strength and enhance functional capacities, positioning and orthotics preserve ROM and prevent deformity, communicate plan of wear, sensory concerns

28
Q

Oncology and Bone Marrow Transplantation Units recommendations

A

Chronic nature of illness, may see child inpatient and outpatient or coordinate care across services, working when energy is highest, OT must be aware of stages during transplantation process and strictly adhere to precautions

29
Q

Neutropenia

A

abnormally low count of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell that helps fight off infections, particularly those caused by bacteria and fungi.

30
Q

Oncology OT interventions

A

May include strengthening, ROM, endurance, resuming ADLs, feeding, or play

31
Q

OT tx for graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD)

A

Stretching, extremity weight bearing, & general endurance improve function w/ GVHD

32
Q

CP

A

Umbrella term for a form of brain damage that occurs in children before, during, or shortly after birth

33
Q

Acute rehab needs met (3)

A
  • organize and implement planned approach for management of recovery and rehab of children post-trauma or with rapid-onset disorders
  • redirect care after onset of complications in children with chronic disorders
  • provide environment for specialized medical or surgical procedures that involves specific care regimens and protocols
34
Q

Leading cause of death and disability in children over 1year

A

Injuries

35
Q

Purpose of inpatient rehab

A

optimize recovery
prevent complications
organize and implement an approach to initial and long-term management that optimizes function in family and community life

36
Q

Focus of outpatient rehab (3)

A
  • health status and development
  • emphasizing functional progress
  • participation in home, school, and community activities
37
Q

OT is typically for what purposes (3) outpatient

A
  • part of diagnostic assessment
  • provide needed intervention and AT after hospital discharge
  • provide intervention for individuals w/ disabilities or other medical conditions not requiring hospitalization
38
Q

OT functions in Acute Care

A

primary focus: ADLs IADLs, education, and community participation
Development of goals w/ child, family, and care team
Prevention of problems associated with illness/trauma/disability

39
Q

Altered mental status interventions:

A

help establish routine
provide purposeful activities to facilitate cognitive, psychosocial, and motor functions
positive social interaction and use of entertainment & play activities may be especially helpful for reducing stress & promoting engagement of young children
