|
Biomechanical Approach |
Remedial /Restorative, includes activities and exercise that target occupational performance subcomponents. |
|
|
Examples of intervention on Biomechanical |
May involve training or instructions designed to increase muscle strength, improve or prevent loss of joint ROM, increase endurance for daily activities, enhance dexterity and manipulate skills, and prevent loss of skin integrity. |
|
|
Rehabilittion Approach |
Compensatory / Modify. Addresses the patient's abilities and potential for regaining independence in ADL. |
|
|
Rehabilitation Approach addresses |
The use of assistive devices and modifications of activities to accomplish functional goals. |
|
|
The biomechanics frame of reference is used |
Used to structure intervention for individuals with functional limitations due to impairments in body structures and body functions. |
|
|
Impairments when using Biomechanical approach |
Decrease strength, flexibility, ROM, and endurance. Need to restore the functional motion necessary to sustain occupational performance. |
|
|
Increasing muscle endurance |
Working muscle and resist fatigue, High-load reputation and low-load repetition, Maximun capacity of a strengthening program, strength verses endurance. |
|
|
Types of muscle contraction |
Isometric or static contraction. No joint motion occurs muscle strength lengths remains. Stabilize joint. |
