Neuromuscular Part Eleven Flashcards
two gait patterns for spastic CP
scissoring
toe walking
when is APGAR tested
1, 5, 10, 15 minutes after birth
four main syndromes of CP
spastic
athetoid
ataxic
mixed (most often spasticity and athetosis)
onset and integration of moro reflex
onset: 28 weeks gestation
integration: 5-6 months
how should pressure on tendons in order to inhibit tone be applied
firm, constant pressure
what is plantar grasp stimulus and response
stimulus: maintain pressure under toes
response: maintain flexion of toes
what is tested on APGAR
heart rate
respiration
muscle tone
color
reflex irritability
Erb’s Palsy affects what nerve roots
C5-C6
ATNR stimulus and response
stimulus: rotation to the side of the head
response: flexion of the skull limbs, extension of the jaw limbs
what is the cognitive stage of motor learning
develop an overall understanding of the skill through trial and error practice
athetosis in CP results from involvement with what part of the brain
basal ganglia involvement
what does Klumpke’s Paralysis result in weakness of
hand and wrist flexors
onset and integration of crossed extension reflex
onset: 28 weeks gestation
integration: 1-2 months
Klumpke’s Paralysis affects what nerve roots
C8-T1
most common syndrome of CP
spastic
appropriate parameters for low-frequency vibration
5-50 Hz
what appearance of the hand is common with Klumpke’s Paralysis
claw hand
when does Klumpke’s Paralysis occur
when C8-T1 are stretched during the birthing process
plantar and palmar grasp onset and integration
onset: palmar at birth, plantar 28 weeks gestation
integrated: palmar 4-6 months, plantar 9 months
what is feedforward
sending of afferent signals in advance of movement to ready the system
