Basic Neuro
Anatomy
Anatomy
this lobe is responsible for sensory integration
parietal lobe
loss of consciousness, stiffness of body, irregular breathing, drool, skin pallor, sometimes incontinence
tonic phase of seizure
Lowest score on the glasgow coma scale
3
Cva/ stroke
this type of orthoses is used for motion prevention, external support, contracture prevention, joint alignment, pain reduction
static orthosis
these are large, myelinated, fast conducting
A fibers
UMN lesions (SCI) cause what change in muscle tone
spasticity
GCS 13-15 range
mild TBI // concussion
resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, akinesia are all cardinal signs of this disorder
Parkinson's disease
this stage of oral motor function consists of one's ability to open their mouth, form a bolus, and contain the bolus in the oral cavity
oral preparatory stage
Ascending fibers of the spinal cord send information... (type and where)
sensory information from the body up the spinal cord to the brain
New onset weakness after years of stability, easily fatigued, atrophy, loss of function, motor neuron breakdown
Post-Polio Syndrome
high sensory threshold, active response
sensory seeking
rise in BP, pounding headache, sweating
autonomic dysreflexia
Ayres Sensory Integration creates this type of environment for improved sensory processing
cranial nerve III is responsible for
oculomotor - eye movements, pupil size, eyelid elevation
L CVA is associated with
aphasia and language difficulties
motor incomplete, with at least 50-% of key muscle functions below the lesion having grade of greater or equal to 3/5
ASIA D
continuous seizure lasting for >5 mins; or continuous seizures where the person does not gain full consciousness between them
Status Epileptcus
3 factors promoting generalization of motor learning
What are: intrinsic feedback capacity, high KP feedback, low KR feedback, variable and random practice, high contextual interference, naturalistic environment
3 functions of the parasympathetic branch of the ANS
conserve/restore homeostasis, slow HR, reduce BP, increase peristalsis, increase glandular activity
exposed sac/pouch consisting of CSF and meninges but not spinal cord
spina bifida meningocele
localized response, reacts inconsistently, directly to stimuli
Ranchos Level 3
progressive weakness, tachycardia, tachypnea, dysphagia, impaired speech, anxiety, restlessness, decreased respiratory function possibly requiring ventilation
Myasthenia Gravis Crisis
massed practice, restraint of less affected UE, and transfer package are the 3 components of this intervention
Constraint Induced Movement Therapy
