Description

Connecting clinical information from what we know about pediatric development can be easily applied to neuro-rehabilitation. This course will review pediatric motor and perceptual-based development to create a predictive framework of upper extremity skill progression following a stroke.  Extensive hands-on experiences will be provided to illustrate the emergence of hand skill development and refined fine-motor control. 

 


Course Content

Review pediatric developmental motor and perceptual skill acquisition and compare to clients with upper extremity hemiparesis.
• Review developmental motor and perceptual milestones for children

• Compare milestones to clients with clients who sustained a stroke:
- UE Weakness
- Postural Control
- Transfer Skill
• Review of present literature to support task-based facilitation of movement
Analyze emerging motor skill development with clients post-stroke.
• Case studies application
• Define developmental level and predict next emerging motor movement

Create fun, easy to implement activities that challenge and engage the client using a developmental framework
• Activity using pediatric-based facilitation methods to encourage motor development
• Discuss and actively demonstrate ways to integrate pediatric-based facilitation methods to adults who sustained a stroke
• Based on hands-on activity, modify activity given various difficulties associated with clients post-stroke
• Discuss ways to present such tasks within different areas of practice
• Review key concepts and allow additional time to ask questions and/or clarify key points
