PHTY306 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy, Motor Control, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Document Summary
Phty304 week 1 lecture: overview of paediatric physiotherapy and revision of child development: describe the parameters of paediatric physiotherapy. Movement dysfunction may be 2 to another problem: Musculoskeletal e. g. hip dysplasia can lead to delayed walking. Preterm respiratory disorders (cid:314) (cid:315) cardiorespiratory fitness. Neurological muscle stiffness, contracture: impairment may result in multi-system disorder. Idiopathic toe walking: identify the factors which influence the development of movement and motor skills in children. Movement begins in utero: kicking, pushing, rolling, walking, fine motor. At birth: primary repertoire of species specific behaviours, sensory and motor systems operational. Typical growth and development: infant, child and adolescent: A complex interactive process which is unique in every child. A progression in an orderly but broad sequence. Changes occur from conception to full maturity. Musculoskeletal structures: skeletal growth: bone & joint, muscle growth, morphological changes (form and structure) Movement emerges from interaction between the individual, the task and the environment.
