Week 1 & 2 Review Flashcard (OCTH 522)

Front

Which assumption underlies the Biomechanical Frame of Reference in OT? Options: Skills are independent of anatomy knowledge, Movement is controlled only by reflex arcs, Function depends solely on cognitive skills, The body works like a mechanical system

Back

The body works like a mechanical system

Front

Which physical components are primarily targeted in the Biomechanical Frame of Reference? Options: Attention, memory, language, executive function; Muscle strength, ROM, endurance, tissue integrity; Sensory modulation, arousal, affect, motivation; Social roles, habits, routines, identity

Back

Muscle strength, ROM, endurance, tissue integrity

Front

Why is understanding anatomy and physiology essential when using the biomechanical frame?

Back

To relate impairment to functional task demands

Front

Which impairments most commonly limit function addressed by the Biomechanical frame? Options: Purely psychosocial participation barriers, Visual-perceptual processing issues, Language and communication deficits, ROM, strength, endurance limitations

Back

ROM, strength, endurance limitations

Front

Why are repetition and graded practice emphasized?

Back

To drive physiological adaptation and skill

Front

Which statement best captures ‘use it or lose it’ in functional participation? Options: Regularly loading systems preserves capacity, Resting completely prevents deconditioning, Skill returns without practice or effort, Only pain dictates performance changes

Back

Regularly loading systems preserves capacity

Front

Why should activities be modified to match current ability?

Back

To dose workload safely and progressively

Front

Which medical conditions commonly contribute to strength deficits in this context? Options: LMN diseases, SCI, RA, MS, stroke; Asthma, eczema, IBS, migraine; Type 1 diabetes, celiac, anemia; Depression, anxiety, schizophrenia

Back

LMN diseases, SCI, RA, MS, stroke

Front

In rheumatoid arthritis, why is strengthening recommended during remission?

Back

To avoid inflamed tissue overload periods

Front

Which physiological change reflects muscle overload adaptation? Options: Hypertrophy, hyperplasia debate, sarcomere addition; Immediate motor neuron apoptosis, fiber loss; Capillary collapse without remodeling; Tendon completely avoids any adaptation

Back

Hypertrophy, hyperplasia debate, sarcomere addition
