Stroke Rehab (2 Day Course)

Sorry, registration has ended.

Interventions that are effective, relevant, and realistic start from an assessment which specifically identifies key limiting deficits in each individual person following a stroke. There is no ONE way to get the result you want, but there is A way. Come join a group of therapists, just like you, in a course that will provide a framework for the clinical-reasoning and the hands-on skills (patients will be joining us!) needed to change the interventions for your patients on Monday. This course is packed with treatment options for improving basic skills like transfers, ADL's, mobility and walking. Find out how to apply task specific training and high-intensity stepping to any level patient. Open full brochure below with objectives and agenda. Hope to see you in November!

OBJECTIVES: By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Develop a revised approach to patient evaluation using the HOAC II (Hypothesis-Oriented Algorithm for Clinicians II), Framework for Temporal Sequence and ICF Model to guide clinical reasoning.
  • Correlate limiting impairments with activity limitations noted during an initial examination.
  • Prioritize impairments identified in an examination for intentional intervention development.
  • Categorize interventions into like groups aimed at specific activity limitations or impairments.
  • Recognize the impact of motor control and learning theories on treatment session development
  • Implement appropriate treatment interventions for identified impairments.
  • Modify treatment interventions to maximize carryover of tasks and movement patterns into functional activities
  • Implement a process of developing interventions and intentionally progressing them toward specific functional goals.
  • Apply principles of neuroplasticity to interventions to improve stroke outcomes
  • Use evidence to guide intervention selection and progression.

COURSE AGENDA:

Strategies for Assessment

  • Use of ICF and hypothesis-oriented approach to assessment plan
  • Use of systems screen and examination to rule in/rule out impairments correlating to activity limitations
  • Building a language to describe deficits to guide identification of starting point for interventions and progression
  • Core Set of Outcome Measures for Adults with Neurologic Conditions

The Science of Recovery After Stroke:  Principles of Neuroplasticity

  • Highlighting principles of specificity, intensity, repetition and salience
  • Error Augmentation, Optimal Theory of Motor Learning

Identification of Perceived barriers and strategies for their mitigation

  • Hemiplegic UE
  • Spasticity & Flaccidity
  • Use of AFO’s & FES post-Stroke CPG
  • Cognition
  • Safety

The Art of Applying the Science for Intentional Progression of Interventions

  • Use of motor control/motor learning concepts for optimizing treatment sessions
  • Strategic use of positions such as half kneeling, prone, tilt table, standing with endpoint and standing frame
  • Strategies for task specific intervention development for transfers, ADL’s, balance reactions and gait
  • CPG for Improving Locomotor Function in Chronic Stroke, Incomplete SCI, and TBI
  • Implementing High Intensity Step Training
  • Cardio Circuits for endurance and functional training for all patient levels

Case Discussion and Live Patient Application of concepts above
