The definition of TherEx utilizes body movement, posture and physical activities to ...
- Remediate or prevent impairment
- Improve, restore or enhance physical function
- Prevent or reduce health related risk factors
- Optimize overall health status, fitness or well-being
-
PAtient vs. Client
- Patient has impairment & functional limitation diagnosed by a PT
- Client is without diagnosed dysfunction but, engages in PT to promote health/wellness and prevent dysfunction
-

impacts the functional consequesnces of acute or chronic conditions
-
The 3 models of disablement were criticized for what?
Not being person oriented so, WHO created ICF.
-
ICF stands for?
International classification of Function, disability and health
-
ICF model components
- Impairment of bosy strucutres and function
- Activity limitation
- Participation restriction
- Impact of contextual factors on functioning, disability and health
-
Disability definition
Inability to perform or participate in activities related to one's self, home or work that is perceived to be normal.
-
Prevention
(definition)
Reduction in the chance for disability
-
3 types of prevention
- Primary - help prevent disease
- Secondary - early diagnosis and reduction of severity
- Tertiary - Use of rehab to reduce the degree or limit progression of existing disability
-
Risk Factors
(definiton)
- Characteristics that predispose a person to the process of disablement
- They exist prior to the onset
-
Clinical Decision Making
Reasoning or critical thinking that involves making judgemtns and determination in patient care
-
Evidence based practice
Conscientous, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making a decision about the care of an individual patient
-
Process of evidence based practice
- Identify patient problem and convert to specific question
- Search literature and collect clinically relevant data
- Analyze the evidence
- Integrate
- Incorporate
- Assess the outcome
-
Steps of PAtient management model
- Examination
- Evaluation
- Diagnosis
- prognosis of POC
-
PTA Intervention
- A purposeful interaction that directly relates to a patient's care and can include:
- coordination, communication & documentation
- procedural intervention
- patient related instruction
-
Functional outcomes must be:
- Meaningful
- Practical
- Sustainable
-
Discharge occurs when...
Anticipated goals and expected outcomes have been attained
-
Discontinuation occurs when ...
ending service prior to meeting expected goals and outcomes
-
Exercise instruction should be....
- In place to facilitate learning
- Focus on goals
- Be based on patients learning style
-
-
Stages of motor learning
- Cognitive
- Associative
- Autonomous
-
Range of Motion
Basic technique used for examination of movement and for initiating movement into a purposeful therapeutic intervention
-
-
Indications for PROM
- Patient has acute, inflamed tissue
- Patient is unable to or not supposed to move segment
-
Goals of PROM
- Maintain joint and connective tissue mobility
- Prevent contractures
- Maintain mechanical elasticity of muscle
- Assist circulation and vascular dynamics
- Enhance synovial movement
- Decrease or inhibit pain
- Assist with the healing process
- Pumps blood
- Help maintain the patient’s awareness of movement
-
Indications for AROM
- When a patient is able to actively contract the muscles
- When a patient has weak muscles
- For aerobic conditioning
- To mobilize a segment above or below an immobilized region
-
Precautions and contraindication to ROM exercises
- Should not be done if movement will hinder healing
- Should not be done if it is going to kill patient
