Learning Outcomes: Identify and label bony landmarks of the spine, shoulder girdle, and upper extremity Describe movement during functional activities in terms of joint movement and primary movers Illustrate and record the specific origins, insertions, innervations, and functional actions of muscles of the upper extremities Discuss the importance of accurate evaluation measurement and their implications for occupational therapy intervention Apply principles of kinesiology and biomechanics to occupational tasks Utilize hypothetical patient goniometric and manual muscle test results to predict the individual's ability to engage in selected occupational activities Accurately perform assessment measurements for upper extremity joints Demonstrate professional behaviors in classroom and laboratory settings Analyze movement in terms of types of muscle contraction, functional groups, and individual muscles Compare and contrast the biomechanical and rehabilitation frames of reference Accurately record and document results of measurements Classify different types of joints and discuss their functional purpose during movement Identify appropriate activities to strengthen specific muscles or groups of muscles Identify compensatory patterns of movement and stabilization Demonstrate professional behaviors in classroom and laboratory settings General Topics: Motions of bones and joints Skeletal system Bony landmarks Planes/axes of motion Joint classifications Degrees of freedom Kinematic chains Concepts of kinesiology The science of movement Intervention activities Range of motion Muscular factors Concepts of recruitment and rate coding Scapulohumeral rhythm Posture Functional interaction of the spine and pelvis Upper extremity neurological conditions Hand anatomy Pathologies that are commonly seen in occupational therapy Instruction & Assessment Section 4 Content Section 4 Content Left Section 4 Content Right Instructional Strategies: Audio Visual Materials Case Studies Classroom Exercise Discussion Lectures Practical Exercises Methods of Assessment: Examinations Minimum Passing Score: 70% Supplemental Materials Section 5 Content Section 5 Content Left Section 5 Content Right Section 6 Content Section 6 Content Left Section 6 Content Right Button Content Rail Content 1 Page Content
