sensation peads Flashcards
whats difficulty in modulation of sensory info
can’t focus on whats relevant
hard time filtering
imbalance between excitation and inhibition of neutrons
T/F 5-15% of children have difficulty sensory modulation
T
impact of SI impairments
Play, ADL’s, Rest/Sleep, Education impacted
hows Is impact play
decrease quality / quantity of skills
less participation
loneliness
how are ADLs’ impacted by SI
greater motor difficulty, greater sensory challenge, less indp
how rest impacted SI
higher disturbances in sleep cos tactile hypersensitive
hows education impacted by SI
decreased participation attention and learning difficulties
managing SI
target activity / participation
modify task
T/F 40% of children with CP have impairment with vision / oculomotor
true
types of visual impairments in CP
myopia (near sighted)
lazy eye
visual field defficit
cortical blindness
how visual impairments effect development
perception of affordances
retinopathy of prematurity
eye disorder that affects premature babies
affects immature blood vessels of retina
causes of ROP
prematurity
excessive oxygen at birth
infection
excessive exposure to light
impact of ROP
lead to future visual impairment
can cause head tilt to optimize vision
Treatment stage 1-II ROP
resolves on own
treatment stage 3-5 ROP
laser srugery
eye patching
eye glasses
moniter
Cortical visual impairment
disturbance of posterior visual pathways or occitpal lobes
causes of CVI
ABUSE perinatal hypozia cerebral vascular accident meningtits acquired hypoxia
associated neurological abnormality with CVI
seizures
CP
hemiparesis
hypotonia
what do CVI see
swiss cheese
normal pupularry reactions what do you see CVI
peripheral better than central
normal eye exam CVI what do you see
poor depth perception, difficulty targetting
normal eye movement CVI what do you see
movement helps
visual functional CVI
photophobic or light gazers
considering for CVI treatment
takes a lot of energy
positioning
verbal / tactile cues
allow time
concerns if SI
skin integrity
pain
__ all children experience chronic pain
25
___ of children w CP experience pain
65-78
challenges w assessing pain in SI
standard measures
self report / non verbal can be hard
other emotion can be seen as pain (fear)
what kids at risk of hearing loss
CP
born preature
DS
core features of Autism
impairment in social communication
repetitive behaviores
restricted interests
when do you see red flags in autism
12-18 months
autism more boys or girls
boys 4:1
signs of autism
inappropriate playing with toys, other, laughing, crying
oversensitive to sound, hyperactivity or passive
poor speech attachment lack of danger awareness
Autism motor impairments
dyspraxia (need time to plan movement)
gait (postural sway)
balance and coordination (reliance on vision)
autism assessment
history, interdisciplinary team
motor milestone
toe walking
treatment considerations autism
consider sensory preference
supportive teaching envioremtn (routine, quiet, mix of activities)
simple langauge
picture symbols
