QuestionAnswer
What are the 3 causes of Scoliosis? - Idiopathic - Neuromuscular - Congenital
What is the most common classification of scoliosis? Non-structural (postural) scoliosis which involves a flexible curve that corrects on side bending, sitting or lying down.
What is the other type of scoliosis? Structural scoliosis is a non-reversible curvature of a segment of the spine, It involves a true 3D deformity in all planes and will present with a Rib Hump in the “Adams’ Forward Bending Test
What are the 6 muscles of the eye? 1. Superior Rectus 2. Inferior Rectus 3. Medial Rectus 4. Lateral Rectus 5. Superior Oblique 6. Inferior Oblique
What is the role of the Superior Rectus? and what nerve innervates it? Elevates eye, contributes to medial rotation and adduction Oculomotor nerve (CN III)
What is the role of the Inferior Rectus? and what nerve innervates it? Depresses eye, contributes to lateral rotation and adduction. Oculomotor nerve (CN III)
What is the role of the Medial Rectus? and what nerve innervates it? Adducts eye (moves eye medially) Oculomotor nerve (CN III)
What is the role of the Lateral rectus? and what nerve innervates it? Abducts eye (moves eye laterally) Abducens nerve (CN VI)
What is the role of the Superior Oblique? and what nerve innervates it? Superior Oblique Depresses, abducts, and medially rotates eye Trochlear nerve (CN IV)
What is the role of the Inferior Oblique? and what nerve innervates it? Inferior Oblique Elevates, abducts and laterally rotates eye Oculomotor nerve (CN III)
What is the other meaning of medial and lateral rotation? Intorsion and Extorsion
What is Smooth pursuit? Eyes track a moving object smoothly in a coordinated (conjugate) manner across horizontal, vertical, oblique, and circular planes.
What is Vergence Movements? Vergence is part of the accommodation reflex, which adjusts focus between near and far objects by changing their angle: Convergence, divergence and saccades
What is Convergence? Eyes move inward when focusing on a near object.
What is divergence? Eyes move outward when focusing on a distant object.
what is Saccades? Rapid, jumping eye movements between objects, allowing quick shifts in focus. These movements are so fast that vision is briefly suppressed during the transition.
What are the 5 categories of the vestibular system? 1. Peripheral Receptor Apparatus 2. Central Vestibular Nuclei 3. Vestibulo-Ocular Network 4. Vestibulo-Spinal Network 5. Vestibulo-Thalamic-Cortical Network
What is the Peripheral Receptor Apparatus? Includes the utricle, saccule, and three semicircular canals, which detect head motion and gravitational forces.
What is the Central Vestibular Nuclei? Located in the brainstem, these nuclei integrate vestibular signals and coordinate responses.
what is the Vestibulo-Ocular Network? Controls reflexive eye movements (Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex, VOR) to maintain stable vision during head movements.
What is the Vestibulo-Spinal Network? Regulates postural adjustments and balance through spinal pathways.
What is the Vestibulo-Thalamic-Cortical Network? Relays vestibular information to higher brain centres for spatial awareness and perception.
What is ideation? Conceiving an idea of what to do
What is Motor organisation/motor planning? planning how we are going to do the movement
What is execution? Performing the movement correctly
What is feedback and adaption? Be able to reflect on feedback to adapt our future movements
What are some signs of conflicting sensory input? - No visual righting reflex - excessive post-rotatary nystagmus - motion sickness with movign stimuli - discomfort with bright light - distressed with nearby movement (car rolling)
What are some signs of lack of visual engagement? - does not respond to mvt or turn to sounds - fails to scan environment or bumps into objects - eats half of their plate - does not recognise people in pictures
What are some signs of difficulty with visual motor tasks? - poor hand-eye coordination - difficulty distinguishing a step from a flat surface
What are some signs of postural & balance challenges? - locks head and trunk excessively when standing/sitting on unstable surface - weaves around obstacles but loses balance - runs into walls or objects instead of stopping smoothly
What are some compensatory strategies for poor vision? - reliance on tactile or auditory info - excessive head mvt or abnormal postures to access available vision - over-organises their environment - over cautious when moving
What are some postural & motor control deficits with a vestibular deficit? - unaware of environment - poor righting, protective equilibrium and placing reactions - frequently trips or falls - low postural tone
what are some vestibular gaze stability deficits? - blurred vision during mvts - difficulty tracking moving objects - increased reliance on head mvt instead of eye mvts - poor gaze stabilisation with head mvt
What are some vestibular sensory integration challenges? - overreliance on vision - inability to overrise sensory conflicts
What are some vestibular avoidance strategies? - avoids climbing, swinging or fast mvt - expresses fear of heights, quick position changes or falling - becomes anxious in moving environments - avoids playground equipment - prefers sedentary tasks
What are some seeking & risk taking behaviours? - seeks repetitive spinning, swinging, or rocking - struggles to stop mvt based activities - engages in high risk mvts - takes excessive physical risks without awareness of danger
what are the components of the systems approach BS&F's? - Sensory Strategies - Individual Sensory systems - Internal Represent - Anticipatory Mechanisms - Adaptive Mechanisms - NM Synergies - MS components
What are the Domains for the Kids BEST Test and what do they link up with in the systems approach? Biomechanical Constraints Stability limits/vertically Anticipatory postural adjustments Reactive postural Responses Sensory Orientation Stability in Gait

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
