|
|
If patent is looking up and to the right it might by ______ syndrome
|
Brown
atients problem involves the LSO being tight! |
|
_____ is rapid eye movements from one stationary object to another
|
saccades
|
|
What ocurs after every saccade?
|
A fixational pause --> information processing occurs during fixation... rain does not process info while eye is saccades so there is no awareness of blur
fixation lasts 200-250 ms |
|
Why do we not experience blur when we look from object to object?
|
brain does not process info while we saccade, only processes during fixational pauses
|
|
____ is the ability to follow a moving object
|
pursuits
controlled by occipitoparietal junction |
|
How long is a fixational pause?
|
200-250 ms
|
|
T/F 90% of reading time IS spent on fixation
|
T
|

we aquire about _______ characters per saccade
|
5-8
|
|
Beginner readers tend to have
|
longer fixations
shorter length of saccade Regressions Slow reading rate |
|
T/F Beginner readers have shorter lengths of saccades
|
T
|
|
T/F Beginner readers have LESS regressions
|
F
MORE |
|
Reading rate doubles from 1st to ___- grade
|
6TH
|
|
________ OCCURS WHEN A READER OVERSHOOTS TARGES OR MISINTERPRETS TEXT
|
rEGRESSIONS
|
|
t/f saccadic dyfunction CAN cause reading problems
|
T
Poort saccades are secondary to deficient language skills |
|
If pt complains aout excessive head movments, frequent loss of place, skipping lines and poor comprehension they may have what eye movement disorder?
|
Saccadic dsyfufnction
|
|
It patent complins about ecessive head movments, poor perforamnce in sports and reading difficulty, they may have what eye disorder?
|
Pursuits dysfunction
|
|
Pts with abnormal fixation if he/she cannot maintain fixation for atleast __- seconds
|
5
|
|
__________ is a fuxation disorder associated with pathological poor fixation
|
Nystagmus
|
|
3 ways to evaluate saccades
|
NUSCO
DEM test Visagraph Direct observation of saccades is NUSCO |
|
Direct observation of saccades is measured using
|
NSUCO
|
|
Visual Verbal Format used to test saccades
|
DEM Test
|
|
NSUCO tes evaluates what?
|
sacades and pusrsuits
inexpensive and easy to perofm |
|
T/F NSCO is a QUANITATIVE assessment
|
FALSE
QUALITATIVE |
|
T/F NSUCO test is a inocular test
|
T
|
|
3 Criteria NSUCO test uses
|
Ability (how many compelte round trips) with max of 5
Accuracy (can pt accurately and constently fixate on target) with a max score of 5 Head and Body movement (can pt accomplis saccade without moving his head) with max of 5 |
|
T/F For NUSCO test, the HIGHER the score, the better the performance
|
T
|
|
Scoring of NSUCO pursuit test
|
Ability (pt can make complete roations, with max being two compelte rotation in each direction=5)
Accuracy (can pt accurately and constitently fixate on target with max score of r) Head and Body movements (can pt accomplish pursuit without moving is ead with max score of 5) |
|
NUSCO testing involves ______ trips in the hirzontal direction with patient alternately looking at _______-
|
5 trips
red to green ball |
|
What is the test of choice for saccades??
|
Visual Verbal Format Test- the DEVELOPMENTAL EYE MOVEMENT TEST
|
|
DEM Test, Test A involves
|
PT READING OUT LOUD NUMERS DOWN THE FIRST vertical colum and then readind down second colum with only using their eyes.
This checks langue to make sure there is not a problem there. ALSO KNOWN AS the AUTOMATICITY of NUMBER CALLING |
|
ALSO KNOWN AS the AUTOMATICITY of NUMBER CALLING
|
DEM test Test A
|
|
DEM Test B involves
|
pt reading numbers down a colum and then reading down anther colum. Recod the time and number of errors wit a total number of 40 numers oriented vertically
|
|
DEM Test C involves
|
Patients reading numers across a horizontal column with a total number of 80 numbers in scattered pattern
Score how long it takes to read A,B and C and see how many errors there are |
|
Adjust time for the DEM test is =
|
(time x 80)/ 80- omissions + repeated numbers)
|
|
DEM Type I behavior
|
nomral horizontal and vertical saccades
|
|
DEM Type II behavior
|
abnormal HORIZONTAL and NORMAL vertical
RATIO is high --> oculomotor dsyfunction |
|
DEM Type III behavior
|
BOTH horizontal and vertical abnormal, with normal ratio
automaticity of numbers dysfunction |
|
DEM Type IV Behavior
|
HIGH hirotnzal, VERTICAL and HIGH ratio
|
|
During DEM test, if pt makes a substitution error mark it with a
|
slash
|
|
IF during DEM test, pt repeats a number tice put a _ over the number
|
a
for Addition error |
|
If pt during a DEM test omits a number, how do you mark it?
|
circle the number
|
|
If during DEM test, a pt switches the order of adjacent numbers but what marks between the numbers?
|
< >
this counts as only 1 error!!! |
|
DEM test
TEST A and B assess ________ while C assesses ____-- |
verbal/speech/language skillls
eye movement |
|
