Reflexes also known as |
synergies; coordinative structures; reactions; movement patterns
|
|
3 types of movement |
Reflex, Automatic, Volitional |
|
Reflexive movement |
Stimulus: external, Latency of response: fastest, variability of response: minimal |
|
Factors modifying the reflexive movement response |
musculoskeletal or neurological abnormalities |
|
Automatic Movement |
Stimulus: External, Latency of response: intermediate, Variability of response: some |
|
Factors modifying the automatic movement response |
nusculoskeletal or neurological abnormalities, configuration of support, prior experience |
|
Volitional Movement |
Stimulus: external or self-motivated, Latency of response: slowest, Variability of response: great |
|
Factors modifying the Volitional Movement response |
musculoskeletal or neurological abnormalities, conscious effort, prior experience, task complexity |
|
Simple spinal reflex |
mediated by the muscle spindle and golgi tendon organ |
|
Primitive (early) reflexes |
generally not present after the first year of life |
|
Equilibrium and righting reactions |
present throughout life |
|
Visual Placing Reactions |
older infants, correlated with independent walking (volitional movements)
|
|
Proprioceptive |
younger infants, correlated with neonatal stepping reflex (spontaneous stepping) |
|
Astasia |
the inability to stand upright unassisted |
|
Abasia |
lack of motor coordination in walking |
|
Persistent ______ is extremely problematic |
Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex (ATNR) |
|
Righting Reactions |
Bring the head into relation with the trunk or orient the head in a normal functional position relative to the ground |
|
All standing and moving reactions to the forces of gravity are dependent on the ___________________, ________________, and ________________ systems acting together. |
somatosensory, visual, and vestibular |
|
___________________, and _______________ are also necessary to have in order to have standing and moving reactions to the forces of gravity. |
muscular strength and range of motion |
|
Optical Head Righting (combined with Labyrinthine Head Righting) |
Onset: birth (but may not be seen until 2 months), Integration: persists through life, Testing is the same as LHR but without the blindfold |
|
Protective Extension |
Occurs when an extemity extends away from the body to break a fall. Protects the body against the effects of falling, remains throughout life (also known as parachute reactions, protective placing or propping reactions) |
|
Tilting reactions |
occurs when the center of gravity is shifted and the base of support is unstable (such as a tilt board) |
|
Rolling Reactions |
Neonatal Neck Righting, Neck Righting (Neck on Body), Body Righting (Body on Body) |
