Motor Learning, Coordination, Reflex Quiz #1

What is movement?

- Simple reflex to a complex network of neural patterns that communicate through the CNS and PNS

- Involuntary reflexes to voluntary motor control

- Involving the brain and is influenced by the deviations and or diseases affecting typical human development

volitional

voluntary

motion

abilityof a joint or tissue to be moved passively

force

ability of the contractile and noncontractile structures to produce movement and provide dynamic stability around the joints during static and dynamic tasks

energy

the ability to perform sustained or repeated movements and is dependent on the integrated functioning of the systems

motor control

the ability to plan, execute, and adapt goal-directed movements such that they are accurate, coordinated, and efficient

CASSS

control, amount, symmetry, speed and symptoms

speed

rate of change or velocity of segment or body

amplitude

the extent or range of movement either whole body or body segments

alignment

biomechanical relationship of body segments to one another as well as to the base of support in order to achieve task

verticality

the ability to orient the body in relationship to the line of gravity

stability

the ability to control the body's center of mass in relation to the base of support

smoothness

the ability to complete a task in a continual fashion without interruptions in velocity or trajectory

sequencing and timing

The spatial organization and temporal structure of different body segments to complete a task

symptom provocation

an observation or patient report of symptoms; movement evokes a particular response

What are the parts of movement analysis?

1) subjective

2) analysis of task

3) progression/ regression

4) tests and measures

5) plan of care

CST

voluntary motor function of limbs

modifies muscle tone and reflexes

what is a reflex?

involuntary, predictable, and specific responses to a stimulus, dependent on an intact reflex arc

2 cutaneous reflexes

plantar and abdominal

mechanoreceptors

cutaneous sensory receptors

deep sensory receptors

muscle and joint

thermoreceptors

cold and warm

nociceptors

pain

DCML

conscious perception of fine touch, 2-point discrimination, proprioception, and vibration

Spinothalamic tract

conscious perception of pain, temperature, and crude touch and pressure
