PEDS: Neuromotor Function Evaluation and Intervention

QuestionAnswer
What are we reviewing during a medical model eval? Records sent by doctor or parents
Who are we interviewing during a medical model eval? Child, parents, and family
Where are we observing during a medical model eval? In the setting you will see the child
What assessment tools are we using during a medical model eval? Standardized Assessments and Skilled Observation
Who are we interviewing during an education model eval? Teacher, Psych, SLP/PT, other staff, parents
Where are you observing during an education model eval? Students natural environment
What assessment tools are we using during an education model eval? Standardized Assessments, Skilled observation, work sample collection
During an eval for a neuromotor impairment what are assessing? -Tone -Posture -UE/LE asymmetries -Abnormal reflexes
During an eval for developmental delays what are we assessing? -Delayed milestones -Neuromotor Impairment -Time spend on a device -Movement ability
What are the common features of movement issues in children with neuromotor impairments? -Issues with muscle tone -Issues with postural control -Sensory processing issues
What are key factors using the biomechanical FOR? -ROM -Head control -Trunk control -Control of UE movement -Mobility
What are key factors in the motor skill acquisition FOR? -Provide match between person, task, environment -Pretty much PEO model
How can we assess tone? -PROM/AROM -Traction response -Laying down -Hand positions
How can we assess motion? -MMT and ROM -Antigravity positions -Protective/Righting responses -Look at key points of posture
What are the different parts of praxis? -Ideation -Planning -Movement execution
Should we wait to treat delay or address them early? Address early
What is the OT role in neuromotor intervention? -Develop programming -Consult -Advocate -Educate
What are important aspects for coaching parents? -Ask before helping -Respect them saying no -Provide limitations -Model for the parent
What is the flow of a typical OT intervention session? -Warm up activity -Activity for postural control, BOS, joint stability, mobility that help to support performance of task -Integration of Activities
What can we do for prep activities? Prepare ROM, joint alignment, tone relaxation, positioning
What can we do for different activities to address neuromotor problems? -Handling -Inhibition and Facilitation -Weight shifting and bearing
What is positioning? Static movement of the child with assistance
What is handling? Provide hands-on moving of the child from one place to another
What are the guidelines for positioning and handling? -Complete movement pattern or change positions slowly -Provide support to the involved joints -Not pulling into a position using distal joints
How should we position for supine? -Hips should be flexed with legs separated, abducted and flexed -Head and arms in midline
How should we position for prone? -Hips and legs should be extended and abducted -Elbows below shoulders -Encourage UE extension
What is a neutral position for decreasing reflex patterns and increasing postural organization? Side-lying
Should we allow W sitting for long amounts of time? No
How can we include weight shifting during intervention? -Kneeling on rocker board -Swings -Stepping stones -Balloon tap
How can we address hypotonia during intervention? - Follow developmental sequences -Grade input -Promote proper alignment -Decrease support over time
How can we address hypertonia during intervention? -Tapping followed by pressure -Vibration -Brushing -Thermal/Electrical PAMs -WBing -Joint compression -Passive stretching -PNF
