What are the drug that can be used for reversing the post operative paralysis of skeletal muscles? Please answer at your own easy words.
PT Dx: Pain c/o, ROM deficit in all shoulder motions, and strength deficit in anterior and middle deltoid limiting ability to load luggage into trunk of taxi and work as a taxi driver. Expected Functional Outcome: Able to consistently load luggage into the trunk of the taxi with 0-3/10 pain rating in 10 days. Anticipated Goals: Pain rating reduced from 8/10 to 5/10 with shoulder movements for lifting and carrying objects in 5 days. Consistent use of proper body mechanics using legs and minimizing shoulder motion for lifting, reaching, and carrying in 5 days. AROM of all movements of the shoulder will increase by 50% of the AROM measured in the initial examination for lifting, reaching, and carrying in 5 days
Often a stroke (cerebrovascular accident, CA), impairs one side of the body, resulting in paralysis (hemiplegia). The paralysis can range in severity. In more severe cases, the patient often loses most of the function of their upper extremity and presents with glenohumeral (i.e., shoulder) subluxation (an incomplete or partial dislocation of a joint). a. Why is the primary reason this happens? b. What is likely to happen if left unaddressed?
Hypertonia of UMN lesions is characterized by :-a- increased inhibitory discharge from the premotor areab- inhibition of pontine reticular formationc- increased γ-motor neuron discharge d- decreased muscle spindle discharge
The role of muscle spindles in the maintenance of the upright posture depends upon all the following, except :-a- contraction of the peripheral contractile part of spindle fibersb- increased sensory discharge from spindles of postural musclesc- increased supraspinal facilitation to the γ-motor neurons of postural musclesd- presence of greater numbers of spindles in postural muscles
The most dramatic effects of an UMN lesion occurs with lesions at the level of :-a- the 1ry motor areab- internal capsulec- medullary pyramidsd- lateral column of spinal white mater
Fasciculations of lower motor neuron lesions :-a- are caused by injury currents initiated in the denervated muscle fibersb- can be recorded by electromyogramc- consist of asynchronous contraction of the muscle fibers composing a motor unitd- develop later than fibrillations of the muscle fibers
Adequate level of muscle tone is essential for the accurate performance of voluntary movements, because :-a- it adjusts the α -motor neuron discharge initiating voluntary movementsb- it adjusts posture of proximal joints of the acting limbsc- it adjusts the upright posture of the whole body during voluntary movementsd- it adjusts sensitivity of the spindles of the involved muscles
Explain the descending pathway from the brain where Mr. D decides to move his right leg to the actual movement of his quadriceps. (Use complete sentences.) Use key words in this order: primary motor cortex in precentral gyrus, frontal lobe, descending tract, decussate, ventral horn with motor neuron in lumbar spinal cord, ventral root, spinal nerve, sciatic nerve in lumbosacral plexus, muscles to move leg (ie. quadriceps)to take a step.
Spasticity of the paralyzed muscles in UMN lesions is associated with :-a- inhibition of tendon jerksb- remarkable wasting of the musclec- clonusd- non of the above
Include signs of symptoms of Myasthenic Crisis and when to notify health care provider
Place the following steps in order for motor control.1. Upper motor neurons stimulate lower motor neurons.2. Sensory information is relayed back to the cerebellum so movement can be modified if needed.3. Upper motor neurons in the premotor cortex select a motor program.4. Lower motor neurons stimulate a skeletal muscle to contract.5. The basal nuclei enable the thalamus to stimulate upper motor neurons of the primary cortex." a. 5, 3, 1, 4, 2 b. 3, 5, 1, 4, 2 c. 3, 5, 1, 2, 4 d. 2, 5, 3, 1, 4"
