"Pusher Syndrome" "contraversive pushing" • characterized by distorted postural orientation • tend to use the ________ side to actively "PUSH" towards the _______ side

Stronger (uninvolved) side, weaker (involved) side • Efforts by the therapist to passively correct the patient's tilted posture often result in the patient pushing stronger. • Patients should be asked to look at their posture and see if they are upright. Environmental prompts can be used to assist orientation. • Intervention: the therapist can sit on the patient's less involved side and instruct the patient to "lean over to me." • Or the patient can be positioned with the less involved side next to a wall and instructed to "lean toward the wall. Spontaneous body tilting toward the more-affected side Abduction and extension of the less-affected extremities The patient should be fully involved in problem solving. For example, the therapist should ask questions such as "what direction are you tilted?" and "what direction do you have to move in order to achieve vertical?"

Rubor of dependency test

Tests of peripheral arterial circulation: STEPS: Pt. in supine and note color of plantar aspect. Elevate to 45 deg for 1 min. Note color, return to original position Normal: Return normal red/pink color in 15-20 sec Insufficiency: pallor within 30 sec of elevation With insufficiency - Pallor develops in elevation; reactive hyperemia (rubor of dependency) develops in dependent position. -Assesses LE arterial circulation -Patient begins with legs elevated to 35 to 45 degrees and assessed for color (pale vs. normal "pink") -Then, placed in a dependent position -Normal response: to see a rapid pink flush in the feet. Arterial insufficiency will demonstrate a deep, red color (rubor) after 30 seconds in this dependent position. Pt. is supine, note color of both feet, elevate affected limb for several seconds, record the time it takes the affected foot to return to a matching color of the unaffected foot.

Onset: birth, integrated: persists A. Plantar grasp reflex B. Symmetrical tonic neck reflex (STNR) C. Startle reflex

c.

Standard Precautions requires what 2 things?

hand hygiene and gloves

droplet precautions require what 3 things?

mask, gown, gloves

Blumberg's sign

rebound tenderness peritoneal irritation appendicitis this sign is also known as rebound tenderness, and is a reliable sign of peritoneal inflammation/appendicitis

After load and relationship with SV

the pressure that must be exceeded before ejection of blood from the ventricles can occur = MAP (mean arterial pressure) Resistance to eject blood from ventricle = pressure your heart pumps against Inverse relationship with SV
