Test 1 Flashcards
6 steps to OT process
Theory, evaluation, problem definition, intervention plan, intervention implementation, re-evaluation
What is a FOR?
Vehicle for putting abstract ideas into practice, pieces theories together
Restorative approach
remediate, BOTTOM UP, restore brain pathway, specific foundational skills- CIMT, RESTORE SPECIFIC PROCESSES
Adaptive approach
adapt task or environment - TOP DOWN, increase time to complete, practice, LESSEN FXNAL DEFICITS
WHICH MODELS APPLY TO ADAPTIVE APPROACH>
MOHO, OA, EHP, PEO
WHEN A PERSON IS LETHARGIC, HOW DO THEY PRESENT?
OPENS EYES TO VERBAL STIM
SLOW BUT APPROPRIATE RESP
SHORT ATTN SPAN
OBTUNDED
WHEN A PERSON IS AT AN ALERTNESS LEVEL OF STUPOR, HOW DO THEY PRESENT?
RESPOND TO PHYSICAL STIM WITH GROANS, NEVER FULLY AWAKE, UNCLEAR, CONFUSED
SEMICOMATOSE
PAINFUL STIMULI, NO VERBAL RESP, PROTEXTIVE REFLEXES PRESENT
COMATOSE
ONLY RESPONDS TO PAINFUL STIM, NO PROTECTIVE REFLEXES, PUPILS FIXATED, NO VOLUNTARY MOVEMENT
UNCONCIOUS
STUPOR - COMATOSE
PERSISTENT VEGETATIVE STATE
NO COGNITIVE BRAIN FUNCTION, NO SLEEP-WAKE CYCLES
BRAIN DEAD
ONLY REFLEXIVE MOVEMENTS
NO COG FX
WHAT ARE THE FIVE DIFFERENT TYPES OF STIMULI
VOICE, TOUCH, SHAKE, SHAKE AND VOICE, NOXIOUS
GLASGLOW - EYE OPENING
SPONTANEOUS - 4, TO SPEECH-3, PAIN-2, NIL-1
GLASGLOW - BEST MOTOR RESPONSE
6- OBEYS 5- LOCALIZE 4 - WITHDRAWS 3-ABNORMAL FLEXION 2- EXTENSOR RESPONSE 1 - NIL
Glasglow - verbal
5 - oriented 4 - confused conversation 3 - inappropriate words 2 - incomprehensible sounds 1 - Nil
Glasglow predictors
13 - mild
9-12 - moderate
<8 - severe (coma)
What appearance aspects should you asses when first seeing a pt?
grooming, aids, dress, eye deviation, skin composure
What is Battle’s sign?
bruising over mastoid - skull fx
Raccoon’s eyes
peri- orbital bruising and swell - frontal-basal fx
rhinorrhea
CSF draining from nose, fx of cribriform with torn meninges
ottorhea
drainage of CSF from ears, fx temporal bone with torn meninges
Decorticate posturing
fl, fl, fl, add, internal rotation, pf
critic-spinal tract
Which posturing is more preferable?
decorticate because decelerate means brain stem
Decerebrate posturing
ext, fl, add, pronation w/pf
brainstem
what is opisthotonus?
severe m spasm of neck and back
Orientation x 4
person, place, time, why?
bottom up
component skills
top down
performance in task
Where would an injury be if a pt showed these primitive reflexes; MORO, GRASP, FLEXOR WITHDRAWAL?
SPINE
Where would an injury be if a pt showed these primitive reflexes; ATNR, STNR, Tonic lab, positive supporting, associated reactions?
brainstem
Which reflex would occur if injury was at the mid-brain
righting-reaction
Which reflex would occur if injury was at the basal ganglia?
protective extension
UMN
motor cortex to brainstem / interneurons in ventral horn
spasticity
hyperactive reflex
LMN
vetral horn to skeletal muscles, link btw UMN and muscles
flaccidity, hypotonia
hypoactive reflex
tone
resistance of a muscle to passive elongation or stretching
Muscle tone continuum
rigidity > spasticity > normal > hypotonia > flaccid
High tone
rigidity
