Gross & Fine Motor
Term | Definition |
---|---|
neuromaturational theory | Development depends on CNS maturation Primitive to controlled Cephalo-caudal Proximal to distal Constant rate of development |
neuromaturational model reasons for movement dysfunction | Lack of inhibition from higher centers Abnormal tone Abnormal postural reactions Abnormal patterns of movement |
clinical applications for neuromaturational model | Head control Proximal to distal work Stability before mobility Hierarchy of typical skills- always going for the next level Assumption that motor skill transfers to other contexts |
focus of intervention with neuromaturational model | Waiting for CNS to develop Child Impairment Assumption that fixing impairment will fix function Quality of movement as opposed to function |
types of intervention with neuromaturational model | Neurodevelopmental treatment (NDT, Bobath) Rood Brunstrom Doman Delacato |
dynamic systems theory | Spontaneous self organization of motor behavior from contributions of child, environment, and task Non-linear Movement for functional goal Period of transition |
constraints and dynamic systems model | Movement dysfunction is caused by constraints of child, task, environment Child- cognitive Task- tools of task Environment- climate |
clinical applications of dynamic systems model | Work in functional context Different motor solutions for diff contexts CNS is important but not the only factor for motor skills |
focus of intervention for dynamic systems model | Child, task, environment Functional goal Identification & remediation of constraints Doesn't explicitly guide us if movement is compensatory or typical |
types of intervention with dynamic systems model | Activity based Functional therapy Task oriented Context Ecological task analysis |
neuronal group selection theory (NGST) | Similar to dynamic systems regarding transition, environmental influence, non-linear, importance of practice But emphasizes genetic influence & epigenetic mapping Motor skill variations are set by genome |
primary vs. secondary variability | Baby can't select strategy that fits situation best vs. Baby selects most adaptive strategy through trial & error & sensory processing. Positive effect on neural development. |
clinical applications with NGST | Baby needs opportunity to trial and error a variety of situations Hands on facilitation interferes with activity and motor learning Focus on function, not quality |
intervention with NGST | Coping w/ & caring for infants w/ special needs Therapist as coach Hands off Provide opportunities for variation Acceptance of infant's mvmnt choices |
primitive reflexes | Stimulus response mvmnt Born w/ primitive reflexes As CNS develops, cortex assumes control of mvmnt If reflex retained beyond normal age of integration or obligatory, we have pathology |
palmar grasp (integration, stimulus, response) | Integrates at 4-7mo Stimulus: pressure on palm Response: flexion of fingers (grasp) |
rooting (integration, stimulus, response) | Integrates at 3mo Stimulus: touch cheek or around mouth Response: turn head and lips to stimulus Functional purpose is feeding |
asymmetrical tonic neck reflex (integration, stimulus, response) | Integrates at 4-5 mo Stimulus: turning of head Response: facial arm extends and occipital arm flexes & abducts |
tonic labyrinthine reflex (integration, stimulus, response) | Integrates at 4 mo Stimulus: neck extension/ flexion Response: neck ext- ext of arms & legs; neck flex- flex arms & legs |
symmetrical tonic neck reflex (emerge, integration, stimulus, response) | Emerges at 4-6 mo Integrates at 8-12 mo Stimulus: neck ext/ flex Response: neck ext- arms extend & hips flex; neck flex- arms flex & hips extend |
roles of primitive reflexes | Get in proper position for birth (primary stepping & placing) Participate in birth process (+ve support) Practice mvmnts needed for survival (rooting, sucking swallowing) Early marker for normal development |
current approach with reflexes | Primitive reflexes are reactions rather than reflexes May serve functional purpose for those with motor impairments May be controlled by more than just CNS maturation |
key points with reflexes | Reflexes influenced by state of child Responses are variable within & across infants Reflex ax is small part of neuro ax- need to see posture, self initiated movement |
head righting reactions | Optical righting- visual cues for head positions Labyrinthine righting- using equilibrium Body on head righting- sensory cues on the body |
equilibrium reactions | Body attempting to maintain midline position & stay withing base of support Elongation of trunk of weight bearing side, rotating trunk, extremity mvmnt Prone (4mo)- Supine (6mo)- Sit(6-8mo)-Stand(10-12mo) |
protective reactions of the arms | If CoG moved outside base of support, baby reaches out with arms In response to quick, unexpected movement Fwd(6mo) - Side(8mo) - Bwd(10mo) |
components of Alberta Infant Motor Scale | 1. Sequence of appearance of mvmnt skills 2. Weight bearing/ shift 3. Core stability 4. Dissociation of mvmnt 5. Variability of mvmnt choices |
sequence | Physiological flex- flex in trunk, extremities, 2wks Active ext- move against gravity, head up, ext arms, 3-4mo Active flex- supine 1st, using tummy muscles Rot- control ext & flex, roll/sit/stand/side-lying, start as unit then segments |
weight bearing | 1st on upper body, then shifts down the body Give diff activities to see shifts in weight Baby can control- good equilibrium & weight shift Look for distribution, elongation on trunk, correcting unexpected weight shift |
to have core stability, we need strength in | Trunk ext Trunk flex Trunk rotation Contributes to mature movement skills |
when observing core stability, look for | Primary extension control Abdominal control Rotation in movement |
dissociation of movement | Breaking up total patterns of mvmnt into finer, more selective patterns Parts of body move independently of other parts |
variability of movement choices | Lots of choices Hallmark of typical gross motor development As babies get older, they have more movements |
immature vs. mature movement patterns | Wide base, stable positions with little movements vs. Narrow base, mobility, trunk rotation, variety of movements |
development in prone | Arms go flex to ext Legs flex to ext, to add Weight moves back Mobility emerges Variability of movement emerges |
development in sitting | Wide to narrow base Arm support to no arm support Abdominal inactive to active (ext spine) Rotation Variety of leg positions while sitting |
