Neurorehabilitation frameworks and MOTOR CONTROL Flashcards
Motor control def
Ability to regulate the mechanisms essential to movement
Movement emerges from 3 factors?
Individual, task and environment
which models encompass all the neuro motor model and it’s applicable in neurorehabilitaion?
contemporary task-oriented
What are the building blocks of a complex behavior?
reflexes
stimulus triggers a ?
response
What’s necessary for a motor output?
sensory input (sensation)
What does the reflex model say in neuro rehab for complex behavior?
They are the combination of individual reflexes (sensation trigger motor action=1 reflex)
Reflex model clinical implications?
Used for evaluation - predicts functional movements of kids
Used for interpretation- diagnose abnormal behaviors because presence or lack of reflexes
Treatment was done - to increase or diminish the person reflex
Treatment for movement disorders from altered reflex regulation?
PNF techniques (stretching and gaining ROM)
Autogenic inhibition
Hold Relax ( contract the agonist muscle and then stretch it)
Reciprocal inhibition
Called contract relax (Contract relax + help of antagonist) means you active the antagonist muscle to inhibit the agonist muscle and stretch it more
