Study Notes
Physical and Mental Conditions
- Refers to individuals with conditions that restrict movement, senses, or overall activation.
- Impairment or disability leads to loss or abnormality in physiological or anatomical functions.
Speech and Communication
- Difficulty in speaking can be a significant barrier in daily interactions.
- Loss of speech signifies a complete inability to communicate verbally.
Inner Ear Disorders
- Chronic disorders of the inner ear can lead to vertigo, affecting balance and spatial orientation.
Vision Conditions
- Near-sightedness and far-sightedness are common vision impairments affecting focus.
- An irregular curvature of the cornea causes distortions in sight.
- A group of ocular conditions is characterized by optic nerve damage, potentially leading to vision loss.
- Clouding of the eye's natural lens is commonly referred to as cataracts.
Neuromuscular and Movement Disorders
- Generalized diseases that disrupt motor cells result in conditions like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
- Cerebral palsy is a type of brain paralysis affecting motor skills and movement.
- Muscular dystrophy causes progressive weakness and degeneration of skeletal muscles.
- Inflammation of joints is commonly associated with arthritis, which affects mobility and comfort.
Chronic and Progressive Diseases
- Conditions involving slow progression can lead to significant neurological movement disorders, affecting daily living.
- Certain hereditary diseases can result in dementia and cognitive decline as they disrupt the nervous system.
Tetanus
- Caused by the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium tetani, tetanus is a serious condition impacting muscle control.
Cognitive and Functional Limitations
- Limitations in mental functioning may arise from various conditions, substantially affecting daily capabilities.
- Aligning the head with the spine denotes proper posture and musculoskeletal health.
Patient Mobility and Assistance
- Transferring a patient from one location to another requires careful handling and support mechanisms.
- Devices designed for enhanced comfort and stability provide better support than traditional canes and crutches, benefitting individuals with mobility challenges.
