Handwriting
This is the #1 reason children are referred to OT in the school setting
handwriting
The inability to take in, organize and respond to sensory information in a meaningful & appropriate way
Sensory dysfunction
This uses dynamic techniques to guide a child’s movements to influence muscle tone, promote postural stability, and/or trigger new automatic movement responses
Therapeutic handling
Type of orthoses used to remodel long-standing
dense mature scar tissue, elongate soft-tissue
contractures, or increase passive joint range
of motion
Mobilization orthoses
This is considered a national public health issue with short-term and long-term consequences
childhood obesity
This type of writing suggested is when manuscript is difficult because it is motorically and perceptually easier
Cursive
She led a push to develop evaluation and treatment strategies for SID in early intervention, preschool, and school-age populations starting in the early 1970s
Jean Ayres
Skeletal alignment, aligning head, trunk, and pelvis with extremities approaching midline, is an important precursor for this
Postural stability
Type of taping that is used to improve joint alignment (especially patellar alignment), muscle activity, and biomechanics and claims to aid in muscle alignment to decrease pain
McConnell taping
Term to describe body to fat ratio,however it is not a direct measure of body fat
Body Mass Index (BMI)
The precursors to forming shapes, letters, and numbers
Prewriting strokes
The sensory modulation disorder category that elicits fear when being moved through space
Gravitational insecurity
When using positioning as a therapeutic tool, this is promoted when proximal stability is provided
Distal mobility
Elastic taping would be contraindication if this body system is disrupted
Integumentary system (skin)
Children in these types of communities have an increased risk of obesity
Low-income
By _____ grade, a grasp pattern is generally well established
2nd grade
The point when sensory dysfunction should be addressed
When sensory input is negatively impacting the child’s life
This position facilitates neck and trunk extension
Prone
This type of taping can reduce pain and increase the muscular flexibility, aiding the body in self-healing
Elastic therapeutic taping (Kinesio tape)
This is the most stigmatizing physical characteristic after race
Body size
The performance skill necessary for precise pencil movement, consisting of adjusting objects, shift, transition, and rotation
In-hand manipulation
This sensory system controls the feeling of hunger, heart rate, respiration and elimination and all other internal organ sensations
Interoception
This position requires head and trunk control coupled with shoulder and pelvic stability
Quadruped
The most integral component to increase compliance with wearing orthoses
Education
The most common genetic disorder associated with obesity which involves chromosome 15
Prader-Willi syndrome
