    Study Notes

    Neuroplasticity and Neurorehabilitation

    • Neuroplasticity refers to the ability of the nervous system to reorganize its structure and function as a result of experience.
    • Mechanisms contributing to neuroplasticity include unmasking silent synapses, cortical reorganization, and synaptogenesis.
    • Adaptive neuroplasticity is achieved through specific interventions designed to affect neural mechanisms.

    Recovery and Compensation

    • Recovery refers to achieving a functional goal in the same way it was performed prior to damage or injury.
    • Compensation refers to the use of a new motor pattern to achieve the same outcome.
    • The goal of neurorehabilitation is to promote functional recovery and minimize compensation.

    Neurorehabilitation

    • The primary goal of neurorehabilitation is to promote functional recovery and improve overall quality of life.
    • A multidisciplinary neurorehab team includes healthcare professionals such as physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists.
    • The role of the AEP (Assistive Exercise Professional) in neurorehabilitation includes promoting functional recovery and improving physical activity levels.

    Motor Learning and Neurorehabilitation

    • Key motor learning concepts in neurorehabilitation include goal-setting, motivation, and practice.
    • The benefit of goal-setting in motor learning is to enhance motivation and engagement.
    • Task-oriented practice is more effective for neurorehabilitation than non-task-oriented practice.
    • The optimal level of task difficulty for motor learning is challenging but achievable.

    Exercise and Neurorehabilitation

    • Aerobic training is essential for reducing secondary disease risk in neurological clients.
    • Resistance training focuses on using functional actions impaired by weakness or loss of control to facilitate transfer of training.
    • Enhancing physical activity levels and improving physical conditioning in neurological clients is critical for reducing fatigue and improving overall quality of life.

    Falls and Balance in Older Adults

    • Factors contributing to balance and gait in older adults include vision, sensory systems, and muscle power.
    • Exercise plays a crucial role in reducing the burden of falls in older adults.
    • The primary source of information related to balance and gait is the vestibular system.

    Neurological Lesions and Movement

    • Lesions within the motor cortex can result in primary motor impairments and secondary musculoskeletal effects.
    • The primary effect of basal ganglia lesions on movement control is bradykinesia.
    • Lesions within subcortical regions can result in impairments that constrain functional movement.
    • The primary effect of lesions within the cerebellum on movement control is ataxia.
    • The primary effect of lesions within the sensory systems on movement control is impairments in proprioception and balance.

    Motor Control and Neurological Lesions

    • Dysarthria is a motor disorder characterized by a velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflexes.
    • muscle weakness or paralysis can result from lesions within the motor cortex.
    • Abnormal motor behaviors associated with primary impairments can be described in terms of intensity.
    • The primary effect of lesions within the motor cortex on movement control is paresis or paralysis.
