FORs quiz

Assessment: ROM, strength, exercise, pain assess scale

Focus is on developmental sequences for sensorimotor, motor, cognitive, psychosocial, self-care, visual motor, etc.

Positioning of task, modifying tools, changing materials & methods. Adaptive equipment & teach compensatory strategies

What FOR does this diagram represent?

Provide guidelines for restoring functional movement. Meaningful tasks increase clients motivation to recover and refine

Applies principles of physics to human movement. Focus is remediation – establishing or restoring functional skills.

the 4 patterns of sensory processing enable providers to interpret children's behaviors and tailor activities to support

Neurodevelopmental therapy (NDT), Rood's, Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation(PNF) & Brunnstrom's movement therapy

Focus: restoration of skilled voluntary movement for children and adultswith developmental or neurological conditions

Intervention: create an individualized experience or environment by removing or adding various sensory inputs

Intervention: includes equipment needed to provide vestibular, proprioceptive, and tactile input

OT’s focus is addressing ROM, kinematics, torque, strength, endurance, and ergonomics to improve function and reduce pa

OT creates a growth-facilitating environment to stimulate development of next level of skills

consider physical and mental features of occupational performance; consider contexts

Assessment: Observation of functional performance of occupations

compression wraps, stretching, ROM exercises, or physical agent modalities (PAMs) ultrasound & electrical stimulation

Strength, endurance, and ROM increase with repetition and practice.

Base intervention on dynamic assessment. Clients learn by doing and by verbal or physical cues from OT

Often use standardized testing. Ex: Denver Developmental Screening, Peabody Developmental Motor Scales

Function means that the person has adequate strength, ROM, and endurance for occupational performance

Activities rich in sensation & integrate the visual and auditory systems, promote praxis and optimal postural control

Focus is on adaptation, compensation, and environmental modification to maximize independence

OTs role to create the “just right challenge” that encourages higher level skills, but ones that are not beyond reach

What FOR does this diagram represent?

2 phases of intervention include: low tone (prevention) and high tone (actively engaging in specific tasks)

Reflections of who we are, rather than patterns that indicate disability

What FOR does this diagram represent?

Original “ages and stages” theorists suggested development as linear and hierarchical. Mastering one skill before next

Functional assessment within a child's natural context with a standardized assessment to confirm impressions

What FOR does this diagram represent?

OTs use this as a preparatory/problem solving approach to prepare the client for occupational performance

Motor learning, recovery of function, procedural learning, declarative learning (responsiveness)

What FOR does this diagram represent?

Goal: changing occup performance through activity adaptation, enviro adaptation, compensatory strategies & technologies.

What FOR does this diagram represent?

What FOR does this diagram represent?

Uses the SIPT (Sensory Integration and Praxis Test) is the “gold standard” of assessment

4 processing patterns: sensory seeking, seeking avoiding, sensory sensitivity, low registration

Handling, placement, inhibition, facilitation techniques

Interventions include muscle strengthening, stretching, splinting and prevention through safe environment

OT’s main focus should be building a person's tolerance to exposure

Dysfunction occurs when there is limited strength, ROM or endurance.

using occupation as means and using occupation as end

Assessment: observation and handling during eval, OTs note typical postures and patterns. Collaborative goal setting
