Synergy Patterns | When the central nervous system is damaged as with a CVA, the higher centers of the brain are also damaged. |
The higher centers are responsible | for both complex motor patterns and the inhibition of massive gross motor patterns. |
Synergy patterns result when | the higher centers of the brain lose control and the uncontrolled or partially controlled stereotyped patterns of the middle and lower centers emerge. |
Flexor Synergy Scapula: | Elevation and retraction |
Flexor Synergy Shoulder: | Abduction and lateral rotation |
Flexor Synergy Elbow: | Flexion |
Flexor Synergy Forearm: | Supination |
Flexor Synergy Wrist: | Flexion |
Flexor Synergy Fingers: | Flexion with adduction |
Flexor Synergy Thumb: | Flexion and adduction |
Extensor Synergy Scapula: | Depression and protraction |
Extensor Synergy Shoulder: | Medial rotation and adduction |
Extensor Synergy Elbow: | Extension |
Extensor Synergy Forearm: | Pronation |
Extensor Synergy Wrist: | Extension |
Extensor Synergy Fingers: | Flexion with adduction |
Extensor Synergy Thumb: | Adduction and flexion |
• The flexor synergy is seen when | the patient attempts to lift up their arm or reach for an object. |
Flexor Synergy Hip: | Abduction and lateral rotation |
Flexor Synergy Knee: | Flexion |
