What does ADL stand for?
Activities of Daily living
What does IADL stand for?
Instrumental activities of daily living
What is Occupational Performance?
Completing meaningful activities by a person, groups or populations.
What is Functional Anatomy
Underlying body structures that contribute to movements and daily function. Includes motor skills.
What is functional Mobility?
Moving from one position or place to another such as changing positions in bed, transferring or walking.
What is Surface Anatomy?
Features that are palpable or visible on the surface of the skin.
What is a bony landmark?
Component of bone that protrudes underneath the skin.
What is the correct anatomical position?
Standing upright
Feet apart
Head forward
Arms at sides
Palms forward
What does posterior relate too?
Back or Dorsal
What does anterior relate to?
Front, Volar or Ventral
Describe attributes associated with the sagittal plane
Divides body into left and right side
Midsagittal plane is in the center (Midline)
Flexion and extension movements
Describe attributes associated with the frontal plane
Also called the coronal plane
Divides body into anterior and posterior portions
Abduction and adduction movements
Describe attributes associated with the transverse plane
Divides body into inferior and superior portions
Rotatory movements
What is an ellipsoid joint?
Oval shaped convex end articulates with elliptical concave basin of another.
Motion around 2 axes
Example: Radiocarpal joint
What is a gliding joint?
2 flat surfaces of adjacent bones
Least movement
Translation (gliding) movements between surfaces
Example: Carpal bones of the wrist
What are the two main approaches in the context of occupational therapy within a physical health setting?
Biomechanical
Biopsychosocial
What is biomechanics and what is its approach?
To diagnose disfunction, we first need to understand what ‘normal’ function is.
What is normal & what is abnormal?
Biomechanics is the science of
living body movement.
It including how muscles, Tendons, Ligaments and bones work together to move?
Biomechanics helps us understand why, the
human body moves the way it
does, in both optimal
conditions and not.
When and who published the bio-psycho-social approach?
George L Engel
1977
What are the key differences between the biomedical model and social model of health?
- According to the biomedical model, health is an individuals responsibility and refers to an objective biological state characterized by the absence of illness (Germov, 2019).
- In contrast, the social model defines health as a social construct. This is influenced by social factors including a person’s living conditions, working condition, political, and social environments.
List each element that goes into the Biopsychosocial approach.
Health conditions
Body structures function and impairment
Activities and there limitations
Participation and Restrictions
Environment and Barriers
Personal factors.
What does ICF-DH stand for?
Classification
International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health
What are the different aims of the ICF
A process for understanding health
* Health related states
* Outcomes
* Determinants
* Changes in health status and functioning.
- Establishes a common language for health and health related states in order to **improve communication **between Healthcare workers
- Researchers
- Policy makers
- Public
- People with disabilities.
Promotes comparison of data across countries, healthcare disciplines, services and time.
Provides a systematic coding scheme for health information systems.
Define mass
Mass is the measure of the amount of
matter in a body and the units are kg.
Mass is a measurement of an
objects tendency to resist changing its
state of motion, known as inertia.
Define weight
Weight is a measure of downward
force exerted on a body - it is the
product of mass and gravity and
measured in Newtons.
