Card preview (24)

#1
Front (Question)

What is the coordination rule?

Back (Answer)

Eye- head-hand *the entire reach is guided by vision (first peripheral and then foval)

#2
Front (Question)

What is smooth pursuit

Back (Answer)

Tracking an object w/your eyes - process all info in frame (start slow & go faster)

#3
Front (Question)

What are saccades

Back (Answer)

Hold 2 fingers up and quickly move eyes b/t - only processing the finger tips

#4
Front (Question)

What is gaze-evoked nystagmus

Back (Answer)

Slow, correcting movement (towards the side spun) followed by rapid correcting saccades (in the opposite direction_

#5
Front (Question)

How do you test for gaze-evoked nystagmus

Back (Answer)

Spin an individual in a chair 10 x CW and 10 x CCW and watch their eyes

#6
Front (Question)

What is ocular dysmetria

Back (Answer)

Over or undershooting targets in a 3D world (R or L, up or down, etc)

#7
Front (Question)

What is disrupted smooth pursuit

Back (Answer)

Inability to smoothly pursue an object

#8
Front (Question)

Where do we get our spatial vision from?

Back (Answer)

The dorsal pathway (superior) through the parietal lobe to process spatial rlns b/t objects

#9
Front (Question)

Where do we get our object vision from?

Back (Answer)

The ventral pathway (Inferior) through the temporal lobe, processing physical qualities of an object

#10
Front (Question)

What is transport

Back (Answer)

Primarily the proximal joints moving the hand where it needs to be

#11
Front (Question)

What joints are involved w/transport w/in arms reach

Back (Answer)

Scapula, shoulder, elbow and forearm

#12
Front (Question)

What joints are involved w/transport beyond arms reach

Back (Answer)

Trunk & if standing may include the LEs via a hip or ankle strategy

#13
Front (Question)

T or F: arms length forms a square around you

Back (Answer)

F - it is a semicircle

#14
Front (Question)

What tract allows for distal movement of the hand

Back (Answer)

Lateral CST

#15
Front (Question)

Analysis: Sitting w/in arms length

Back (Answer)

Facilitation of: • abdominal and lumbar co-contraction w/in arms reach • scapular protraction • shoulder flexion and some abd • elbow extension and pronation or supination or neutral

#16
Front (Question)

Analysis: Sitting BEYOND arms length

Back (Answer)

Includes a dynamic trunk Facilitation of: - WS to IPSI tuberosity - Facil PPT and Lumb Flex - Facil lat elong (IPSI) and lat flexion (CL)

#17
Front (Question)

What are the components of scapular protraction

Back (Answer)

Upward rotation/ER - abduction, ER, elevation

#18
Front (Question)

What are the components of retraction

Back (Answer)

Downward rotation/IR - adduction, IR, depression

#19
Front (Question)

Analysis: Standing WITHIN Arm’s Length

Back (Answer)

Trunk and body stable Facilitation of: -abd & lumbar co-contraction for reach w/in arms length

#20
Front (Question)

Analysis: Standing BEYOND arm’s length ankle strategy

Back (Answer)

• Dynamic trunk and body & LEs • Facil WS to PISI foot and trunk elongation • Ankle strategy - relative DF

#21
Front (Question)

Analysis: Standing BEYOND arm’s length hip strategy

Back (Answer)

Facilitate: • COM of pelvis must shift post • COM of chest must shift anterior, elevate and lateral (IPSI)

#22
Front (Question)

Analysis: Stepping Strategy

Back (Answer)

Facilitate: • Thru pelvis to encourage step • Thru upper (chest) and lower trunk elongation

#23
Front (Question)

Define grasp

Back (Answer)

Primarily the distal joints of wrist and hand perform manipulations

#24
Front (Question)

Define reaching

Back (Answer)

Multi-joint movement accomplished by a straight line trajectory
