Q

how does scoring work for aims

A

items marked as O or NO (observed or not observed)

find “motor window” items btwn least mature and most mature skill observed in each position

score each item in the window: 1 for observed, 0 for not observed

Give a point for everything below the window

Q

JUST READ THIS SUMMARY: Standardized tests can be used as a part of an examination for screening, determining the need for therapies, evaluation, and/or monitoring progress depending on the specific test
Test selection should include consideration of a child’s age and abilities as well as the purpose of test administration
Tests need to be administered in a standard method when drawing conclusions and considering change over time and understanding of norm-referenced and criterion-referenced test development is important when interpreting examination findings

123
Q

how many weeks is very preterm

A

<32

very high risk of CP

124
Q

benefit and risk of adjusting for gestational age

A

benefit: qualm parents fears, maybe the kid just needs to work on growing
risk: miss something that can potentially be worked on

125
Q

explain what CP is in as few words as possible

A

perminant non-progressive neuological deficit

126
Q

is CP normally rule out or in diagnosis?

A

rule out

127
Q

compare and contrast the lesion vs. the sequelle of CP

lesion: static

Sequelle: progressive

128
Q

what is the most common kind of CP

spastic

129
Q

characterized by slow, involuntary, convoluted, writhing movements of the fingers, hands, toes, and feet and in some cases, arms, legs, neck and tongue.

vs. 
diskinetic
vs.
ataxic

134
Q

what can you see on an MRI that might point docs towards a CP diagnosis?

A

PVL: periventricular leukomalacia

decreased white matter (has abnormal white signal)

not direct correlation but still a risk factor

135
Q

Can you treat PVL?

A

not the cause itself but you can maximize function

136
Q

what is the GMA

who uses it?

what is it used for

A

gross motor assessment

Healthcare practitioners in the NICU use it.

Done to see if child is at risk of CP later in life

137
Q

does PVL correlate super well with CP later in life?

A

no but it is a factor to consider for kids to be assessed for needs early

138
Q

what is the huge concept for the NICU

A

there might be movement characteristics that you can observe that can cue you off to think who might need therapy before they have a true diagnosis of CP (lack of fidgetiness, only synergistic patterns of motion)

139
Q

what is the one thing that kept coming back under unhelpful for treating CP

A

NDT
