Term
what are brunnstrom stages?
Definition
staging system to categorize patients' movement problems, implying a set pattern of recovery after stroke
Term
define synergy
Definition
stereotypical movement, emerging early in recovery as reflex or voluntarily
Term
what does stroke cause increased muscle tone
Definition
overactive muscle activity in affected side
Term
on what population of strokes are Brunnstrom stages most applicable
Definition
MCA infarcts
Term
what are the components of flexor synergy in UE
Definition
retration/elevation of shoulder girdle; external rotation; abduction to 90 deg; elbow flexion; wrist supination;
Term
what is the strongest movment in flexor synergy in UE
Definition
flexion of the elbow to an acute angle
Term
what are the components of extensor synergy in UE
Definition
protraction of the shoulder girdle; internal rotation; adduction; elbow extension; pronation; maybe wrist extension with fist closure
Term
what is the strongest movement of extensor synergy in UE
Definition
internal rotation, adduction
Term
what upper limb movement isn't included in either synergy?
Definition
finger extension
Term
what are the components of flexor synergy in LE
Definition
hip flexion, abduction, external rotation, knee flexion to 90, dorsiflexion/inversion of ankle, toe dorsiflexion
Term
what are the main components of LE flexor synergies
Definition
hip flexion
Term
what are the components of LE extensor synergy?
Definition
hip extension, adduction and IR, knee extension, plantarflexion and ankle inversion, toe planatarflexion
Term
what are the main components of LE extensor synergies
Definition
adduction/IR of hip, extension of kne
Term
what LE movement isn't included in either synergy
Definition
ankle eversion
Term
how does spasticity related to movement control
Definition
inverse relationship
Term
describe brunnstrom stage 1
Definition
flacid: no movement of affected limb (not reflexively or voluntarily)
Term
describe brunnstrom stage 2
Definition
recovery begins: synergies or components appear as associated reactions. Minimal voluntary movement. Spasticity in muscles that dominate synergy.
Term
what is an associated reaction
Definition
involuntary movement that occurs along with something more effortful
Term
describe brunnstrom stage 3
Definition
voluntary control of synergy: movement in synergy but not out of synergy
Term
describe brunstromm stage 4
Definition
some movement out of synergy.
Term
describe brunnstrom stage 5
Definition
more movement out of synergy with less difficulty. Synergies lose dominance over movements
Term
describe brunnstrom stage 6
Definition
individual joint motions possible. Movement may be slower or less fluid but approaches normalcy
Term
what are some typical UE stage 4 movements
Definition
hand behind sacrum. Shoulder flexion with elbow extension. Pronation/supination with elbow flexed to 90
Term
what stage is someone in if they can do only one of the stage 4 movements?
Definition
early stage 4
Term
what are some typical UE stage 5 movements
Definition
shoulder abduction with elbow extension; shoulder flexion greater than 90 with elbow extended. Pronation/supinatino with elbow extended
Term
what UE movement is unique to stage 6
Definition
finger extension
Term
what LE movement is unique to stage 6
Definition
ankle eversion
Term
what are stage 4 movements of LE
Definition
in a sitting position able to flex knee beyond 90 without ER and abduction; dorsiflexion with foot on floor (without other synergy movements of flexion). Initiation of bridging: hip extension with knee flexion
Term
what are some stage 5 LE movements
Definition
knee flexion with hip extended. Hip abduction with knee extended. Ankle dorsiflexion with knee and hip extended.
Term
what is hand like in stage 1
Definition
flaccid
Term
what is hand like in stage 2
Definition
little or no active finger flexion
Term
what is hand like in stage 3
Definition
mass grasp; hook grasp without release; no extension
Term
what is hand like in stage 4
Definition
lateral prehension; release of thumb; semi-voluntary finger extension
Term
what is hand like in stage 5
Definition
palmar prehension. Cylindrical and spherical grasp. Mass extension of all digits
Term
what is hand doing in stage 6
Definition
all prehensile movements controlled. Full-range extension of digits. Isolated finger control but less accurate than other side.
Term
what are 2 objective measures of synergies
Definition
Fugl Meyer, STREAM
Term
describe fugl-meyer assessment
Definition
incorporates Brunnstrom staging. Makes UE and LE motor scores. Assesses synergy.
Term
what does STREAM stand for
Definition
stroke rehabilitation assessment of movement measure
Term
how many movement items are in supine in STREAM
Definition
#1-3
Term
which voluntary movement items of STREAM are sitting
Definition
#7-20
Term
which voluntary movement items of STREAM are standing
Definition
23-25
Term
once you know the stage of limb impairment, then what?
Definition
you know how to advance them. Figure out where they are and look at what's coming up in the next stage
