|
FES
|
is a process by which an electric current is applied to the muscles, which have lost nervous control, using surface electrodes
A current supplies stimulation to illicit a muscle contraction with the aim of providing functional useful movement |
|
Who can use FES
|
Clients may have SCI, MS, Stroke and CP
Clients must have an intact reflex loop Reflex Loop: introduce stim, sensory neurons carry signal to spinal cord, synapse, motor neurons carry signal to muscle, elicit contraction Clients must be assessed by a physiatrist prior to treatment |
|
Factors that determine sufficient current flow to cause an action potential
|
Impedance of body tissues: conductivity of body tissues is based on its water and ion content. Muscle is a good conductor, adipose tissue is a better insulator
Electrode size and placement Stimulation parameters |
|
Benefits of FES
|
Increase muscle area and fiber size
Reduce spasticity Reduce contractures Increased blood flow due to contracting muscle, improved capillarisation Improved lower extremity edema, reduced occurrence of pressure sores Improved bladder, bowel function Improved sleeping pattern Improved cardiovascular fitness, increased cardio output and oxygen uptake Lower blood pressure Improved gas exchange kinetics Improved body composition Improved general health, physiologically and psychologically |
|
Benefits for individuals with SCI
|
Reduce Secondary complications of SCI:
Infections Muscle atrophy Poor circulation Risk of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) |
|
Contraindications and Precautions regarding FES
|
FES safety is not known in pregnancy
Cancer: FES increases blood flow and could increase the rate of spread of cancer Cardiac Demand Pacemakers Electrodes should not be placed over broken skin, rashes, blisters or burns FES may trigger symptoms of Autonomic Dysreflexia |
|
Autonomic Dysreflexia (AD)
|
AD is elicited by a noxious stimuli below the level of injury.
Characterized by increase in blood pressure above the level of injury and a decrease below the level of injury Signs and Symptoms: bradycardia (HR < 60 bpm), hypertension (BP > 200/100mmHg), goose bumps and cold clammy skin, profuse sweating, headache, nasal congestion and nausea |

1-What are the different types (categories) of barriers to community fitness facilities/program
participation? |
Physical/Environmental Barriers
-Front entrance/reception access (turn styles) -Spacing of equipment -Inaccessible or inadequate change rooms Psychosocial Barriers -Attitudes and beliefs of patrons and staff -Knowledge of staff -Lack of social network (perceived or actual) Pragmatic Barriers to Access -Noticeable absence of PWD in community fitness centres physical access cost scheduling untrained staff |
|
2- pragmatic noticeable absence of people with disabilities
Barriers to participation due to lack of: |
physical access
cost scheduling untrained staff |
|
Community readiness and individual readiness. What do these two terms refer to when
discussing community exercise programs for people experiencing disability? |
individual readiness is when they have the skills, proper independance and self esteem to thrive in the community.
community readiness is when the community staff is trained with programs and know how to deal with specific disabilities, the facilities are accessible, transportation is available, the social atmosphere is accepting and inclusive. as well as having different opportunities present giving people choice. |
|
Identify key goals of the TSC transition program.
|
Bridge the gap between health care, rehabilitation and the community.
Optimize programs to maximize access and independence. Decrease TSC wait times through increased programming and options. Develop stable working partnerships with local fitness facilities and community physical activity programs. Assist in improving the accessibility of community fitness facilities through Universal Design principles and accessible equipment resources. Advance the exercise and disability knowledge of fitness professionals and provide professional adapted physical activity services to community fitness facilities. the key idea behind the steadward centre transition program is comprised of four parts: they try to work on creating individual readiness through learning discovery and citizenship,2-connecting with community staff readiness so talented people specialized in this field, 3-searching and providing community opportunities (connecting communities together) 4- working on the physical/environmental barriers and how to limit or get rid of the, (transformative organizational support) |

|
What is the concept of liminality? Explain. What role might it play in the lives of individuals
with impairment? |
Liminality refers to a lack of social status that can be created when a minority group attempts to access services provided by the majority group.
Liminality can be characterized by: anonymity obedience humility conformity -conformity to codes of conduct of the mijority group because of impositions created by the minority 6 degrees -freedom of choice -self respect -dignity of space -taking risks -peer learning -living an ordinary live needs these to live a good life |
|

9. What role does classification play in para (disability) sport?
|
It is “systems” designed to:
Create a fair, equitable and level playing field with the intention to encourage the pursuit of sport excellence. Athletes with disabilities are grouped in classes defined by the degree of function presented by the disability. Six different disability groups in the Paralympic Movement: amputee, cerebral palsy, visual impairment, spinal cord injuries, intellectual disability les autres. Objectives: To support and co-ordinate the ongoing development of accurate, reliable, consistent and credible sport focused classification systems and their implementation. |

|
Community Benefits
|
Community physical activity opportunities and community integration for people with physical disabilities are an important and beneficial means to maintain physical, social and mental health
Physical inactivity among people with physical disabilities is a complex issue that includes physical, social, and attitudinal barriers as well as a lack of internal motivation. Increased opportunities for persons with disabilities to be physically active within their communities Persons with disabilities would experience increased access to community fitness facilities through accessibility and disability awareness by staff and able-bodied facility members Persons with disabilities will experience increased emotional support from staff to assist with the transition from rehabilitation to community. Increased and enhanced social networks for persons with disabilities |
