Neuro Interventions Flashcards
What is Variable Practice
Practice of several variations of the sametask/same category of movements
What is Constant Practice
Practice organized around one task - performed repeatedly
What is Faded feedback
Feedback Given very frequently at
first, then less frequently
What is feed forward
learner creates motor programprior to initiation
Modified based on success
What is feedback
learner relies on environmental FB
and sensory input to establish cognitive schema to guide movement
Changes based on reaction of environment
How is a PNF pattern named?
Pattern named by the position of the shoulder or hip when the diagonal pattern has been completed
In PNF whenever possible, manual contacts are placed over the ________ muscle groups or their _________ ______
Whenever possible manual contacts are placed over AGONIST muscle groups or their TENDINOUS INSERTION
(This allows PT to apply resistance to the appropriate muscle groups and cue the pt as to the desired direction of movement)
When during the PNF motion should the distal component of the motion be complet?
By halfway
During PNF auditory cues are given to do what?
Enhance motor output
Describe the starting position for UE D1 flexion
Shoulder extension, abduction, and IR Elbow extension Forearm pronation Wrist and finger extension With hand about 8-12 inches from hip
Describe start position of UE D1 extension
Shoulder flexion, adduction, ER
Partial elbow flexion
Forearm supination
Wrist and finger flexion
Describe starting position of UE D2 flexion
Shoulder extension, adduction, and IR Elbow extension Forearm pronation Wrist and finger flexion Forearm should lie across umbilicus
Describe starting position of UE D2 extension
Shoulder flexion, abduction, ER Elbow extension Forearm supination Wrist and finger extension Arm should be 8-12 inches from the ear, thumb positioned to the floor
What specific PNF technique is used to promote the ability to initiate a movement pattern and help pt become familiar with sequence of movement and rate at which movement occurs
Rhythmic Initation
What specific PNF pattern would you use to strengthen a weak agonist component of a diagonal pattern?
Repeated contractions (Repeated, dynamic contractions, initiated with repeated quick stretches followed by resistance are applied at any point in the ROM to strengthen a weak agonist component of a diagonal pattern)
What is the understanding of the neural, physical, and behavioral aspects of movement
Motor control
What is a set of internal processes associated with practice or experience leading to relatively permanent changes in the capability for motor skill
Motor learning
What is the primary focus of NDT
Specialized handling:
(-) spastic and reflex patterns
(+) promote normal movement
What is the importance of the rotational aspect of PNF?
Rotation is the component that most elongates the muscle fibers and spindles of the agonist and increases the excitability and responsiveness
Define open loop as it relates to how the CNS and PNS initiate and control action
Information to carry out the motor task is contained in inital instructions; movement runs w/o influence of peripheral feedback or error detection processes
Define closed loop as it relates to how the CNS and PNS initiate and control action
Employs feedback and a reference for correctness to compute error and initiate subsequent corrections relative to initial instructions issued
What are the four variables that affect the motor learning process
Stages of learning
Sensory conditions
Feedback
Practice schedule
What is feed back that is given after a time delay termed?
Delayed feedback
In what type of practice session is the practice time greater than rest time
Massed practice
In what type of practice session is the amount of rest between trials equals or is greater than amount of practice
Distributed practice
What is defined as the aquired capability to adapt the skill to permit performance of other similar related tasks
Generalizability
Retention is seen when?
When the skill can be demonstrated after a period of no practice at a variety of time intervals
What is info about the actual performance of the movement and how the movement was executed and focusing on quality of movement and errors
Knowledge of performance (KP)
