Brunnstrom treatment approach

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Treatment approach called movement therapy that is most often used in the treatment of hemiplegia   show
🗑
scapular adduction and elevation, shoulder abduction and external rotation, elbow flexion, forearm supination, wrist flexion and finger flexion   show
🗑
scapular abduction and depression, shoulder adduction and internal rotation, elbow extension, forearm pronation and wrist and finger flexion or extension   show
🗑
hip flexion, abduction and external rotation; knee flexion; ankle dorsiflexion and inversion; and toe extension   show
🗑
movements seen on the hemiplegia side in response to forceful movements on the normal side, can be used to elicit synergies by giving resistance to the contralateral (opposite-side) muscle group on the unaffected side   show
🗑
show Associated reactions  
🗑
Excessive facilitation of associated reactions should be   show
🗑
show Facilitation of a Synergy pattern  
🗑
Synergistic movement may be reinforced by the patient’s voluntary efforts through   show
🗑
Proper bed positioning begins immediately when the patient is in the   show
🗑
show Contractures and deformity  
🗑
show The LE’s flexor synergy  
🗑
If the LE’s posture is characterized by extension and adduction at the hip, knee extension and ankle plantar flexion   show
🗑
show Slight hip and knee flexion maintained by a small pillow under the knee  
🗑
To position the affected UE, the practioner supports the arm on a pillow in a postion comfortable for the patient. Abduction of the UE should be avoided because this position can contribute to   show
🗑
The patient is instructed to use the _________________to support the affected arm when moving in bed   show
🗑
show Guided trunk motion without forceful stretching  
🗑
To accomplish this motion, the patient sits erect, cradling the affected arm. The clinician supports the arm under the elbows   show
🗑
During this recovery stage, the aim of treatment is to elicit muscle tone and the synergy patterns on a reflex basis   show
🗑
show Brunnstrom Treatment during stages 2 and 3  
🗑
The treatment aim during these stages is to move away from the synergies by mixing components from both synergies to perform new and complex patterns of movement   show
🗑
The treatment goal during this stage is to achieve ease in performance of movement. Activities that encourage varying motions and increasing speed of performance can be introduced during this stage   show
🗑
show The focus of OT using the Brunnstrom technique  
🗑
The extensor synergy can be used to stabilize an object on a table while the unaffected arm is performing a task   show
🗑
show During stage 4  
🗑
show If the patient moves beyond stage 4  
🗑
The involvement of the affected limbs in sweeping, dusting and washing dishes, are a few of the activities that may enlist the affected arm purposefully if   show
🗑
