Q

Basic principles of NDT

A
  • Normal movement sequences and balance are focus of intervention.
  • Emphasis is normalization of sensory and perceptual experiences through tactile and kinesthetic stimulation
  • Treatment is individualized,
  • Abnormal tone, primitive reflex patterns and mass synergies interfere with normal movement patterns.
    • treatment focuses on inhibiting or eliminating patterns, normalizing postural tone, promoting active control of movements.

Q

NDT of persons with CVA

A

manual techniques,
Goal= prevent or eliminate abnormal tone and coordination, retrain normal movement responses, increase functional use of hemiplegic side.
Handling= provides specific tactile, proprioceptive and kinesthetic messages which help patient to organize quality of movement
-facilitation and inhibition
-key points of muscle control

Q

Techniques

A

Encourage weightbearing over involved side, (most effective for regulating tone, increases client awareness of involved side),
Encourage trunk rotation (visual field opens up, most common for clients to move in “blocklike” pattern, by stimulating trunk rotation become more stable),
Encourage trunk elongation (common posture, gentle stretching),
Encourage scapular protraction.
Slow, controlled movements,
Proper positioning

Q

Rood and PNF

A

Both use reflex arcs to elicit particular types of motor responses by supplying sensory stimulation in a controlled way,
Both address vital function (respiration, facial motions, tongue motions, swallowing, bowel and bladder control),
Facilitation and inhibition of muscle function along with concepts of stability and mobility are basic to application of controlled sensory stimulation used in both approaches.

Q

treatment

A

works towards the patient goals,
Therapist uses the patterns of movements and procedures to facilitate movement into function.
PNF uses total patterns rather than breaking down the movement. A PNF therapist would not have pt practice wrist extension without doing the entire pattern.

19
Q

Diagonal patterns

A

are mass movement patterns observed on most functional activities.
Part of the challenge is recognizing the diagonal patterns in ADL’s
Knowledge of the diagonals is necessary to identify the areas of deficiency.
Each pattern has a flexion and extension component.
Eyes follow the hand of leading arm so the head and hand cross midline

20
Q

UE D1 F&E

A

seatbelt (combing hear, opening door)

21
Q

UE D2 F&E

A

picking a apple and putting it in basket

22
Q

Symmetrical

A

Paired extremities perform similar movements at the same time.

23
Q

Rood

A

Principles of treatment

  • Humans function in a dynamic fashion
  • Muscles have different duties,
  • Heavy work muscles should be integrated before light work muscles
24
Q

Rood- basic treatment assumptions

A

appropriate sensory stimulation can elicit specific motor responses,

  • Thus, muscle action can be activated, facilitated, and inhibited through the sensory system,
  • Motor control is regained through a predictable developmental sequence.
25
Q

Faciliatory techniques

A
  • To increase tone and cause arousal/excitation
    -When used
    – hypotonic or flaccid, has decreased level of movement or activity, has a depressed or withdrawn affect
    -DO NOT
    use when patient is anxious, agitated, highly distractible,
    or overfacilitate or use on spastic muscles.

Used for Low tone

26
Q

tactile stimuli

A

light touch

brushing

27
Q

Thermal stimuli

A

A icing

C icing

28
Q

Proprioceptive stimuli

A
  • Quick stretch (stretch the muscles you are wanting to move/flex)
  • Vibration (can use skateboard)
  • stretch to finger intrinsics
  • Heavy joint compression- on all fours
  • Resistance
29
Q

faciliatory techniques

A
  • Room temp cool- verge of uncomfortable
  • Olfactory: harsh odors
  • Visual- bright colors, lights
  • Auditory: load irregular beat music
  • Tastes: sour (lemon)
  • Very cold (ice chips): facilitates mouth muscles
  • Warm fluids: facilitate swallow
30
Q

Inhibitory techniques

A
  • Maintained input results in maintained response: slow,rhythmic, repetitive= calming,
  • slow stroking
  • Neutral warmth
  • Prolonged cooling
  • Prolonged stretch
  • joint approximation
  • Tendon pressure
  • Gentle rocking
31
Q

Limitations of Rood

A

Effect is short lasting,
effect of stimulation is unpredictable,
Passive nature of sensory stimulation

32
Q

Brunnstrom’s Movement Therapy

A

In normal development, spinal cord and brainstem reflexes become modified and rearranged into purposeful movement through the influence of higher centers,
Stroke results “development in reverse” reflexes use to facilitate recovery of voluntary movement,
Proprioceptive stimuli can be used to evoke desired motion or to alter tone,
Progresses in a sequence,
Newly produces, correct motions must be practiced to be learned,
Practicing functional activities enhances the learning process.

33
Q

Brun Typical Eval

A 
Sensation,
Assessment of reflexes, associated reactions,
Brunnstrom recovery stage,
Motor assessment,
ADL,
Cognition
34
Q

Tonic Reflexes

A

Return after CNS damage

35
Q

Brainstem reflexes

A

STNR,
ATNR,
TLR,
Tonic lumbar rotation of trunk- trunk rotation in relation to pelvis. Rotation of trunk leads to UE flexion and LE extension. Flex UE and Extend LE in direction turned to.

36
Q

Synergy

A

a group of muscles acting together in a stereotyped manner.

Patterns impede patient from performing isolated movement

37
Q

Associated reactions

A

Automatic activities which fix or alter the posture of a part or parts when some other part of the body is brought into action by either voluntary effort or reflex stimulation.

UEs (mirror) VS LEs (opposite)

38
Q

Homolateral limb Synkinesis

A

Flexion of the right UE results in flexion of the right LE. The stimuli may result in affected (most common) or unaffected side.

39
Q

Ramiste’s Phenomenon

A

Abduction: resisted hip abduction on sound side results in abduction on affected side.

Adduction: resisted hip adduction on sound side results in adducted on affected side.

40
Q

Associated hand reactions

A
  • Proprioceptive traction response (a stretch of the flexor muscles of any joint of the UE facilitates a flexor contraction of all other joints)
  • Instinctive Grasp (Occurs with a stationary contact in the palm of the hand. The person can flex and extend; however, as long as the contact remains in the palm of the hand, grasp continues)
  • Soque’s phenomenon (automatic extension of the fingers when the shoulder is abducted or flexed beyond 90 degrees).
41
Q

True grasp reflex

A

Obtained by distally moving deep pressure over certain areas of the palmar surface (not thenar or hypothenar regions).
Catching phase and holding phase.

42
Q

Brunstrom Recovery Stages

A

UE

  • Stage 1: no voluntary movement initiated, flaccid
  • Stage 2: basic limb synergies emerge as weak associated reactions or no voluntary attempt of the person to move. The extend of the response does not necessarily result in joint motion. Spasticity developing.
  • Stage 3: Basic limb synergies performed voluntarily. Spasticity marked. Only one exception to basic limb synergy is the combination of the pectoralis major with the elbow flexors.
  • Stage 4: Spasticity begins to decrease and some basic movement combination deviating from synergy occur.
    • Hand behind the back
    • elevation of the arm to a forward horizontal position
    • Pronation and supination with elbows at 90 degrees of flexion.
  • Stage 5: Relative independence of limb synergies. Spasticity present, but not nearly as significant. More difficult deviations from synergy can be accomplished.
    • arm raising to a side horizontal
  • -Pronation and supination elbow extended forward or side
  • -arm raising forward and overhead.
  • Stage 6: Free movements of isolated joints. Movements are coordinated. Rapid movements may reveal spasticity.
  • Stage 7: Normal
43
Q

Hand, stages of recovery

A
  • Stage 1: flaccidity
  • Stage 2: little or no active finger flexion. Increasing spasticity.
  • Stage 3: Gross grasp; use of hook grasp but no release; no voluntary finger extension: possibly reflex extension of digits.
  • Stage 4: Lateral prehension; some thumb movements; semi-voluntary finger extension, small range.
  • Stage 5: Palmar prehension; spherical and cylindrical grasp and release: semi-voluntary finger extension, small range.
  • Stage 6: All prehensile types under control; skills improving; full range voluntary extension of digits; individual finger movements present, less accurate than on non-affected side.
  • Stage 7: Normal
