TBI Flashcards
Stages of Rancho Los Amigos Levels of Cognitive Function Scale (RLACFS)
- I: No response: absence of observable change in behavior in response to stimuli
- II: Generalized response: response to external stimuli
- III: Localized response: periods of waking off/on during the day
- IV: Confused-Agitated: alertness/heightened state of activity
- V: Confused-Inappropriate-Non-Agitated: alertness/ability to attend for a few minutes at a time
- VI: Confused-Appropriate: ability to attend familiar activities for 30 min
- VII: Automatic-Appropriate: difficulty paying attention in distracting/stressful situations
- VIII: Purposeful and Appropriate: ability to learn new things at a slower rate
What motion does the ligamentum nuchae limit
- Cervical flexion
What are the levels of awareness
- Anosognosia: lack of awareness
- Intellectual: aware that problem exist but not aware of its implications
- Emergent: recognition that problem is occurring
- Anticipatory: demo some learning from past experiences to modify behavior to avoid anticipated problems
When solutions to problems are self-generated by the patient and NOT provided by the therapist
- Recall is enhanced
- Attention is increased
- Engagement is improved
Recommendations for management of cognition following TBI
- Training with metacognitive strategies applied to real-world activities
- Dual-task training
- Avoid sole use of computer-mediated drills
- Environmental modification
- Time pressure management
What are the steps in goal management training
- Stop
- Define
- List
- Learn
- Check
Describe strategic memory advanced reasoning training (SMART)
- Strategic attention: filter
- Integrated reasoning: focus/chunk; link
- Innovation/cognitive flexibility: zoom; generalize
Increased self-awareness has also been associated with _____________ anxiety and depression in individuals with TBI
- Greater
What are the components of the OPTIMAL theory of motor learning
- Enhanced expectancies
- External focus of attention
- Autonomy
What are the 4 main principles of neurological rehabilitation
- Deductive and inductive reasoning
- Functional competence
- Models of motor behavior
- Motor learning and self-efficacy
What are Rood’s 4 levels of motor control
- Mobility
- Stability
- Controlled mobility
- Skill
Describe the temporal sequence for task analysis (Hedman)
- Initial conditions
- Preparation
- Initiation
- Execution
- Termination
- Outcome
What does CASSS stand for related to functional movement tasks
- Control
- AMount
- Speed
- Symmetry
- Symptoms
Functional competence is the ability to perform daily activities
- In a variety of environments
- Under different conditions
- With a minimal expenditure of physical and cognitive resources
Describe Gentile’s Taxonomy of tasks
- Body stable versus body transport
- Environment/task stationary versus motion
