postural control Flashcards
1
Q
Static postural control
A
- Static base of support
- Static individual
2
Q
Dynamic postural control
A
- Individual moving on a static BOS
- BOS is moving while the individual is static
- sway = moving on a static surface
3
Q
4 stages of postural control
A
1) static steady
2) dynamic steady state
3) proactive (anticipatory)
4) reactive
4
Q
Static steady
A
- Sitting or standing
- Can be measured by normal/good/fair/poor
5
Q
Dynamic steady state
A
Steady position while walking
6
Q
Proactive (anticipatory balance)
A
- Anticipatory (preparation for predicted change in balance)
- Ex. reaching for something the cerebellum has already incoded
- cognitive
- Is learned/ needs alot of practice
7
Q
Reactive balance
A
- Responding to a push, trip (unexpected perturbation)
- Is learned / needs a lot of practice
8
Q
task to test dynamic posture
A
sway
9
Q
task to test proactive
A
walking
10
Q
task to test reative
A
pertibation
11
Q
elements of postural control
A
- biomechanical alignement
- sensory feedback
- motor activation
12
Q
sensory aspects of postural control
A
- somatosensory
- vestibular
- vision
13

A
light touch
14
Q
Pacinian corpuscles
A
fine touch details
15
Q
