How should the OT address exercise in clients with muscular dystrophy? (Cadi Fortes, P&S-K Pg. 941) OTs should always encourage active exercise to maintain strength; the client may express fatigue, but incorporating exercise into meaningful age-related activities can reduce this fatigue. OTs should avoid any active exercise, as it could lead to overexertion and fatigue which would exacerbate their cardiac complications. OTs should only encourage active exercise if the client deems it meaningful for their occupations. OTs may use active exercise judiciously, striking a balance between maintaining strength while avoiding overexertion and fatigue.

The occupational therapist used a golf tee to test the pain sensation of Mr. Smith's hand. He was instructed to say either sharp or dull when touched on different spots on his hand. All his answers were correct except when he was touched with the dull and sharp ends of the golf tee on the volar side of his distal and proximal ends of his small finger as well as on the proximal ulnar aspect of the palm, he did not elicit any response. This means that Mr. Smith probably has: impaired protective sensation because of an ulnar nerve dysfunction absent protective sensation because of an ulnar nerve dysfunction absent protective sensation because of nerve C8 dysfunction impaired protective sensation because of a median nerve dysfunction.
