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)
