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.
