Which of the following interventions is MOST appropriate in the first 24 hours after receiving tPA for an ischemic stroke?
What is hold OT services
Rocking in a chair or swinging stimulates this sensory system.
What is the vestibular system
These three components are considered essential for purposeful movement and postural control.
What are normal muscle tone, coordination, postural mechanisms
(These are essential for purposeful movement and postural adjustments.)
During evaluation, verbal critique should be saved for this stage.
What is after the task is completed- during reflection
Low vision is often underreported in this hospital setting.
What is acute care
A client demonstrates poor motor planning following a stroke. What condition is most likely present?
What is Apraxia
At this level, the patient may appear hyperactive and confused with no short-term memory.
What is Rancho Level IV
This principle supports that skills should transfer across multiple environments.
What is generalizability
This model of cognitive rehab focuses on rebuilding cognitive functions through task-based interventions.
What is remedial/restorative approach
These two factors are used to classify low vision.
What are visual acuity and visual field
A client has just experienced a TIA, what is this a warning sign for?
What is increased risk of future stroke
This type of learning is used at levels IV and V to avoid reinforcing errors.
What is errorless learning
This neuro approach encourages using synergies in the early stages of recovery.
What is Brunnstrom Approach
A client demonstrating unsafe mobility may be struggling with this executive function skill.
What is poor planning
This condition involves increased eye pressure and results in peripheral vision loss.
What is glaucoma
A client qualifies for CIMT. What function should they demonstrate to meet inclusion criteria?
What is lift and release a wash cloth
This Rancho level requires only modified independence and includes self-created memory strategies.
What is Rancho Level X
This approach uses real-world challenges and functional tasks that are meaningful to the client.
What is task oriented training
This cognitive issue may look like laziness, but it's really difficulty starting tasks
What is decreased task initiation
This structured framework guides visual evaluation, starting with foundational visual functions and progressing toward complex perception.
What is Warren Hierarchy of Visual Perceptual Processing
The most common cause of stroke, this artery’s dysfunction typically results in greater impairment in the arm, face, and tongue, along with sensory deficits and aphasia.
What is the Middle Cerebral Artery?
This scale rates muscle tone and spasticity.
What is Modified Ashworth Scale
These specific body areas are used in NDT to guide movement and improve control.
What are hips and shoulders (proximal points of control)
This skill is the prerequisite for all higher-level cognitive functioning.
What is attention
This double vision symptom creates distorted depth perception.
