🗑
What vestibular apparatus conveys information about eye and head coordination?   VOR  
🗑
What vestibular apparatus conveys information about balance strategies?   VSR (vestibulospinal reflex)  
🗑
What cranial nerve conveys vestibular cochlear function?   CN VIII vesibulocochlear  
🗑
How is CN VIII tested?   Rhines, Webber, finger rubbing test  
🗑
What is primary processor of vestibular cues?   vestibular nuclear complex  
🗑
Where are the major vestibular nuclei located?   pons, medulla  
🗑
Where do vestibular nuclei project?   SC, cerebellum, CN's III, IV, VI  
🗑
What is adaptive processor of vestibular cues?   Cerebellum  
🗑
The MLF delivers 2nd order neurons to cranial nerves ___, ___, and ____ to provide compensatory eye and head movements, resulting in the _____.   III, IV, VI / VOR  
🗑
The MVST projects to the _____ spinal cord via _____ and results in compensatory head movements.   cervical/MLF  
🗑
The LVST projects to _____ spinal cord and results in appropriate postural adjustments known as “______” strategies.   Lumbar/balance  
🗑
Which element of pt client management? The process of obtaining a history, Performing relevant systems reviews, and selecting and administering specific tests and measures to obtain data.   Examination  
🗑
Which element of pt client management? A dynamic process in which the physical therapist makes clinical judgments based on data gathered during the examination   Evaluation  
🗑
The process and the end result of evaluating information obtained from the examination, which the physical therapist then puts into defined clusters, syndromes, or categories to help determine the most appropriate intervention strategies.   Diagnosis  
🗑
Determination of the level of optimal improvement that might be attained through intervention and the amount of time required to reach that level.   Prognosis  
🗑
Purposeful and skilled interaction of the PT w/the patient and, if appropriate, w/others involved in the care, using various physical therapy methods and techniques to produce changes in the condition that are consistent with the dx and prognosis.   Intervention  
🗑
Results of patient management, with the dx and prognosis, which include remediation of functional limitation and disability, optimization of pt satisfaction, and primary or secondary prevention.   outcomes
