Week 4.4 Interventions for weakness 3

Question 1

what are some preparatory interventions for weakness

Answer 1

PNF, NDT, EMGBFB, PRE, isokinetic exercises and task specific strength training

Question 2

what is the overload in subacute and chronic stroke tolerated at ___ 1RM

Answer 2

80%

Question 3

what is the recommended overload exercise principles

Answer 3

60-75% 1RM with 10-15 reps

Question 4

how can we make the training specific

Answer 4

with type, speed of contraction and length of muscle

Question 5

what is the benefit of cross training

Answer 5

you can introduce variability, and prevent that plateau

Question 6

what is reversibility

Answer 6

detraining effects happen wth you stop strengthening, or when it is not retained

Question 7

what order do you want to do the types of contractions

Answer 7

isometric
eccentric
concentric

Question 8

what is isometric exercise, and why do it? what must we watch

Answer 8

initially, you build force generating capacity, and increase strength of postural muscles. Watch out for valsalva (NOT GOOD FOR STROKE OR TBI)

Question 9

what is eccentric, and what conditions must be with cautious with for this

Answer 9

more efficient, and few MU are required. also, effective in early. Watch in PPS and GBS for fatigue factor.

Question 10

why do eccentric before concentric

Answer 10

you will increase the force of contraction, and increased speed to focus on power.

Question 11

what kinds of things can we do for very weak muscles

Answer 11

sensory stimulation, NMES, biofeedback, combo of EMG triggered NMES

Question 12

what is PRE

Answer 12

stringing with cuff weights, TB, bars, machines

Question 13

what % of 1RM is a 10RM

Answer 13

75%

Question 14

PRE is best for those with at least ___/5

Answer 14

3+

Question 15

what is the benefits of aquatics

Answer 15

supported enviro, reduced WB, resistance, and the water temperature can be manipulated

Question 16

what does warm and cold water do in aquatic training

Answer 16

cold is for MS and warm is to relax and decrease pain

Question 17

what are the positives and negatives of aquatic training

Answer 17

positive : decrease WB, fun, task training, and give freedom
negative: not functional, not good for open wounds, safety and fear.

Question 18

what must we consider with machines

Answer 18

can they get in, is it safe and accessible, can we teach them to get in and set up and monitor themselves

Question 19

what is the benefit of task oriented strengthening

Answer 19

address multiple systems and promotes the transfer to functional skills.

Question 20

what is the benefit of task oriented strengthening

Answer 20

address multiple systems and promotes the transfer to functional skills.

Question 21

what 3 factors can we manipulate

Answer 21

task, individual and enviro
