Neuromuscular control
Download as PPTX, PDF0 likes1,886 views
Neuromuscular control involves understanding how muscle structures create movement through coordination. Messages from the brain initiate muscle contractions by motor neurons stimulating muscle fibers in motor units. The number and size of motor units varies depending on a muscle's function, with large muscles for gross movements having more motor units than smaller muscles. Muscles contract according to the all-or-nothing principle, where motor units either contract fully or not at all depending on whether nerve impulses reach the threshold level.

The McKenzie Method is a system of diagnosing and treating spinal disorders developed by Robin McKenzie. It involves assessing a patient's history and symptoms, focusing on centralization of pain. Treatment involves specific extension, flexion, and lateral bending exercises tailored to the patient's symptoms with a goal of reducing pain and achieving full recovery. Exercises are done regularly and form is important to avoid aggravating symptoms. The McKenzie Method aims to correct dysfunctional spinal mechanics through targeted therapeutic exercises.BIOMECHANICS AND PATHOMECHANICS OF SKELETAL MUSCLE

Active and Passive Insufficiency.pptxJitendraSharma681694
油
This document discusses active and passive insufficiency in muscles. Active insufficiency occurs when a multi-joint muscle shortens over both joints simultaneously, losing tension. Passive insufficiency occurs when a multi-joint muscle is lengthened to its fullest extent at both joints, preventing full range of motion. Examples given are the rectus femoris causing active insufficiency in hip flexion and knee extension together, and the flexor digitorum profundus losing the ability to make a tight fist when the wrist is flexed. The relationship between them is that when the agonist contracts, the antagonist relaxes or lengthens, so the extensibility of the antagonist can limit the agonist's capability,Clinical electro physio assessment

Stretching involves elongating soft tissues to improve flexibility. The stretch reflex causes muscles to contract in response to stretching. Reciprocal inhibition allows relaxation of muscles on one side of a joint for contraction on the other side. Stretching is indicated to improve range of motion limited by tight tissues, as part of a fitness program, and to reduce muscle soreness. Proper alignment, stabilization, intensity, duration, speed, frequency, and mode are principles of effective stretching.TYPES OF RESEARCHES AND ITS IMPORTANCE IN PHYSIOTHERAPY

This study examined hip abductor strength in long distance runners with ITBS compared to uninjured runners. Runners with ITBS had weaker hip abductors on their injured side compared to their uninjured side and controls. Both male and female runners who completed a 6-week physical therapy program of hip abductor strengthening exercises achieved strength levels equal to or greater than their uninjured side and controls. Most runners were able to successfully return to running following the strengthening intervention. While the study included multiple treatments, it provides evidence that hip abductor weakness may play a role in ITBS and strengthening can help return runners to sport.Brunnstrom

The Brunnstrom concept is a theoretical model of motor recovery following central nervous system injury developed by physical therapist Signe Brunnstrom. It is based on the hierarchical reflex theory and assumes that lower level reflexes get incorporated into purposeful movements through higher centers. Recovery proceeds from primitive reflexive movement to voluntary isolated movements. Treatment involves facilitating this progression using reflexes, associated reactions, proprioceptive and exteroceptive stimuli, and resistance. Motor and sensory function is evaluated using Brunnstrom's staging which characterizes recovery in a sequential progression.Job simulation

Dr. James Cyriax developed Cyriax techniques in the early 1900s as a systematic approach to soft tissue injuries. The techniques involve selective tissue tension testing to diagnose lesions, followed by treatments like deep friction massage, passive movements, and active exercises. Deep friction massage uses longitudinal or transverse forces to separate tissue fibers and relieve pain. Passive movements can be graded from low-force range-of-motion to high-velocity small-amplitude thrusts. Active exercises prevent immobilization effects and maintain tissue integrity. Together, Cyriax techniques aim to accurately diagnose and beneficially treat soft tissue disorders.Types of stretching technique

There are dynamic stretches like controlled swinging motions and static stretches where a muscle is held at its farthest point. PNF stretching is the fastest way to improve flexibility and involves isometric contractions of muscles during stretching to relax and further stretch muscles. Different PNF techniques like hold-relax involve isometric contractions followed by passive stretching to improve range of motion. The document cautions that certain techniques like ballistic stretching or advanced PNF methods should only be done by trained athletes due to injury risks.Assessment of balance

Muscle spindle & muscle c toneFatima Mangrio
油
Muscle spindles are proprioceptors that consist of intrafusal muscle fibers enclosed in a sheath (spindle). They run parallel to the extrafusal muscle fibers and act as receptors that provide information on muscle length and the rate of change in muscle length. The spindles are stretched when the muscle lengthens. This stretch causes the sensory neuron in the spindle to transmit an impulse to the spinal cord, where it synapses with alpha motor neurons. This causes activation of motor neurons that innervate the muscle. The muscle spindles determine the amount of contraction necessary to overcome a given resistance. When the resistance increases, the muscle is stretched further, and this causes spindle fibers to activate a greater muscle contraction.More Related Content

Whole muscles are composed of motor units containing muscle fibers of the same type. The proportions of fiber types determine a muscle's contraction speed, strength, and fatigability. The total tension a muscle produces depends on the tension of individual fibers and the number contracting. The nervous system controls tension and velocity by regulating motor unit size, number of active units through recruitment, and fiber type composition within motor units. Recruitment increases the number of active motor neurons and motor units through greater excitatory synaptic input to motor neurons.part 7b4

Neural Control Of Jumpingpcerny
油
The document summarizes the neural control of jumping. Sensory neurons detect changes and send signals to the central nervous system. The CNS then sends motor signals to muscles through motor neurons. When a motor neuron fires, it causes contraction of the muscle fibers it innervates. Fast twitch muscles generate power for jumping but fatigue quickly, while slow twitch muscles provide endurance. Muscle spindles and Golgi tendon organs provide sensory feedback to help regulate movement and prevent overcontraction. Neuromuscular fatigue occurs when acetylcholine is blocked, disrupting communication between neurons and muscles.

The document discusses the structure and function of the nervous system. It describes the central nervous system as consisting of the brain and spinal cord which act as the body's control center. The peripheral nervous system is made up of nerves connecting the central nervous system to the rest of the body. Within the central nervous system, neurons transmit electrical signals through the body to coordinate its activities. The three main sections of the brain are the cerebrum, cerebellum and brainstem, each with distinct roles in movement, coordination, memory and other cognitive functions.Jun.Park

The muscular system allows vertebrates to move through skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles. Skeletal muscles are made of striated fibers anchored by tendons containing myofibrils and sarcomeres. At rest, the body produces ATP aerobically without fatigue byproducts, while anaerobic activities produce lactic acid. Cardiac muscles are laterally connected and involuntary. Smooth muscles are involuntary and controlled by the autonomic nervous system, unlike skeletal muscles which are controlled through motor neurons that release acetylcholine at neuromuscular junctions to contract motor units.The Nervous System

- The nervous system is divided into the central nervous system (CNS), which includes the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS), which includes nerves outside the CNS.
- Neurons are the basic functional units of the nervous system and transmit electrochemical signals. A neuron has a cell body, dendrites that receive signals, and an axon that transmits signals to other neurons or effector cells.
- The PNS is further divided into the somatic and autonomic systems. The somatic system controls skeletal muscles and senses the external environment. The autonomic system regulates involuntary functions through the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions.Neuro anatomy and physiology of masticatory system/certified fixed orthodonti...

The muscular system allows vertebrates to move through skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles. Skeletal muscles contract through the sliding filament model where myosin heads attach to and pull actin fibers. Muscles produce ATP aerobically or anaerobically depending on intensity and duration of exercise. Cardiac muscle fibers are laterally connected while smooth muscles are involuntary. Motor neurons control muscle contraction through acetylcholine release and calcium-mediated muscle twitches. Diseases cause symptoms like pain, weakness, stiffness or inability to move from mechanical injury, neurological problems, infection or muscular dystrophy.Neuro anatomy and physiology of masticatory system /certified fixed orthodont...

Social and cultural influence on identity
Social and cultural influence on identitytrieducation
油
The document discusses how personal identity is shaped by various external influences throughout life. In particular, family has a strong influence during childhood as children tend to adopt their families' views. As people age, peers and media have a greater impact as they influence choices in clothing, music, language and more. Culture and religion also aim to keep people within certain boundaries and can influence traditional behaviors and values. Societal values come from different groups in a community and can represent laws, with people bonding over shared beliefs and values. However, conflicts can arise when individual or group values differ from those of society.Identity & relationships (presentation)

This document discusses adolescent identity development and influences. It notes that identity involves establishing who one is and can be shaped by family, peers, location and clubs. Adolescence involves physical maturation and developing a self-concept and self-esteem. Self-concept refers to one's beliefs about oneself while self-esteem is how one feels about oneself. Rites of passage mark transitions in life stages, such as turning 17, 18, or 21 in Australia or having a Bar Mitzvah in Jewish culture. Key influences on adolescent identity include family, friends, sports clubs, and media.Respiratory system
Respiratory systemtrieducation
油
The document summarizes the respiratory system and breathing process. It describes the major parts of the conducting system that warm, filter, and channel air through the nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli. The alveoli are where oxygen exchange occurs between the air and blood. Inspiration happens when the diaphragm contracts and intercostal muscles open the ribcage, decreasing lung pressure and pulling air in. Expiration occurs when these muscles relax, increasing pressure and pushing air out.Cardiovascular system
Cardiovascular systemtrieducation
油
The cardiorespiratory system is made up of the circulatory system, heart, blood, and blood vessels. The heart pumps oxygen-rich blood to all parts of the body through the arteries and oxygen-poor blood is returned to the heart through the veins. Gas exchange occurs in the capillaries where oxygen is delivered to cells and carbon dioxide is removed from cells. The circulatory system functions to transport nutrients, oxygen, wastes and more throughout the body.The social ecological model
The social ecological modeltrieducation
油
The social-ecological model represents a multifaceted approach to understanding factors that influence physical activity behavior. It considers interactions between individual characteristics and behaviors and the social and physical environments, as well as policy-level influences. The model examines four levels of influence: individual, social environment, physical environment, and policy domains. Effective physical activity interventions are multidimensional and understand that many interrelated factors across these domains influence individual behavior.Muscle fibre types and contractions
Muscle fibre types and contractionstrieducation
油
This document discusses muscle fiber types and muscle contractions. It notes that there are two main types of muscle fibers - slow-twitch and fast-twitch fibers - which are suited to different physical activities based on intensity. It also outlines the three types of muscle contractions: isotonic contractions where the muscle shortens or lengthens, and isometric contractions where the muscle contracts without movement.Discoving the muscle
Discoving the muscletrieducation

Muscles are always attached at two ends by tendons - an origin and an insertion - which allow them to pull against bones and create movement. They work in pairs, with an agonist muscle contracting to cause movement and an antagonist relaxing to prevent injury. Inside, muscles are made of fascicles containing bundles of fibers called myofibrils. Myofibrils contain sarcomeres, the contractile units, which shorten when cross-bridges on myosin filaments pull actin filaments inward. This process occurs along the entire muscle fiber, causing contraction.The muscular system
The muscular systemtrieducation

This document discusses the muscular system and key muscles. It begins by asking questions about how we move, what muscles are made of, and main muscles. It then explains that muscles allow for movement, support and posture, and involuntary functions like breathing and digestion. Muscles are made of microscopic fibers that bundle to form motor units activated by nerve impulses. Some main muscles discussed include the pectorals, biceps, abdominals, quadriceps, hamstrings, and others. The document concludes that the muscular system acts on bones to allow movement and other functions, and muscles vary in fiber usage based on task demands.Muscular system 1

The document discusses the classifications of skeletal muscles. There are three main types: fusiform muscles which have fibers running the length of the muscle belly designed for mobility; penniform muscles which have fibers running at angles to the tendon and are designed for strength and power, including unipennate, bipennate, and multipennate muscles; and radiate muscles which are a compromise between fusiform and pennate capable of strength and power without compromising mobility.Subjective measures
Subjective measurestrieducation
油
This document discusses subjective measures of physical activity. Subjective measures depend on perceptions and include self-reports, recalls, and proxy reports. Self-reports such as diaries provide context but can be unreliable due to inaccurate recording. Recall surveys are inexpensive for large populations but unreliable due to potential bias and misinterpretation. Reactivity and social desirability bias can also influence the validity of subjective measures. Objective measures such as accelerometers provide more accurate data but are not suitable for large populations.Objective measures of pa
Objective measures of patrieducation
油
Objective measures of physical activity include heart rate telemetry, accelerometers, pedometers, and direct observation. Heart rate telemetry uses a watch to measure heart rate during exercise to estimate energy expenditure. Accelerometers provide detailed information on frequency, duration, and intensity of activity. Pedometers count steps to measure distance walked. Direct observation is the most accurate but least practical as it involves directly observing and recording a person's physical activity. These objective measures are used to evaluate physical activity guidelines, health relationships, and the effectiveness of interventions.The nervous system

The document discusses the nervous system and its key components and functions. It is divided into three main parts:
1. The central nervous system (CNS) which controls all body activities and consists of the brain and spinal cord.
2. The peripheral nervous system which connects the CNS to the rest of the body via nerves and sense organs like the skin, eyes, and tongue.
3. The autonomic nervous system which controls involuntary body functions like breathing and heart rate.Fitt and halo

This document discusses different aspects of physical activity intensity including domains of activity, dimensions of fitness, measuring intensity, and metabolic equivalent levels. It defines low, moderate, and vigorous intensity based on talk test, heart rate as a percentage of maximum heart rate, and MET levels. The key point is that intensity has the most impact on long term health benefits and is measured using various physiological indicators.The national physical activity guidelines

The document outlines physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior guidelines for various age groups from children to older adults. For children ages 0-5, it recommends floor-based activities for ages 0-1, at least 3 hours of active play per day spread across ages 1-3 and 3-5, and limiting screen time to 1 hour per day for ages 2-5. For children 5-12 and youth 12-18, it recommends at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous PA per day. For overweight or obese children and youth, it recommends more PA than currently engaged in. For adults 18-65, it recommends at least 30 minutes of moderate PA on most days. For older adults 65+, it recommendsBenefits of pa
Benefits of patrieducation

Regular physical activity provides significant health benefits by reducing the risk of heart disease, diabetes, some cancers and other health issues. It also helps maintain mobility in older age and promotes psychological well-being. While technology has reduced physical demands of daily life, maintaining regular physical activity is important for both physical and mental health.Joint actions and movement
Joint actions and movementtrieducation

This document defines and provides examples of various types of movements of the human body, including flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, circumduction, rotation, pronation/supination, inversion/eversion, dorsi/plantar flexion, and elevation/depression. Flexion decreases a joint angle while extension increases it. Abduction moves a limb away from the body midline and adduction moves it towards. Circumduction is a circular motion at the end of a limb. Rotation occurs around a central axis like the shoulder or neck. Pronation and supination are hand rotations around the thumb. Inversion and eversion twist the ankle in or out. Dorsi and plantar flexion raise or pointJoints structure and classification

A joint is formed where two or more bones come into contact and are attached by ligaments or cartilage. There are several types of joints including fibrous joints which have no movement, cartilaginous joints which allow limited movement, and synovial joints which are freely movable and lubricated by synovial fluid within a joint capsule. Common synovial joints include ball-and-socket joints like the shoulder, hinge joints like the knee, and gliding joints between wrist and ankle bones.Functions and types of bones

The skeletal system has several key functions: providing protection for organs, storing minerals, and providing structure and support for muscle movement. There are different types of bones including long bones found in the limbs, short bones in the hands and feet, flat bones in the skull and pelvis, and irregular bones like those in the spine. Movement is enabled by muscles pulling on bones.Anatomical positions

The document discusses anatomical viewpoints for examining the human body. It describes different perspectives including anterior, posterior, medial, lateral, proximal, distal, superior, and inferior. These viewpoints provide a framework for analyzing the body's skeletal system from various angles such as the front, back, inner or outer sides, attached versus free ends of limbs, and top versus bottom of the body. The document also mentions the anatomical position as a reference point.Factors influencing participation in pa
Factors influencing participation in patrieducation

This document discusses factors that influence participation in physical activity. It identifies key demographic, social, and environmental influences including individual attitudes, childhood experiences, adolescence, adulthood, older age, gender, socioeconomic class, ethnicity, parents, schools/workplaces, peers, media, and physical environment. Across all age groups, these personal and external factors shape attitudes towards physical activity and opportunities to participate.Neuromuscular control
- 2. + Key Concepts It is important to understand the microscopic structure of skeletal muscle and how these structures assist with creating movement. Muscles create movement by pulling on the bone to which they attach. In order to do this, messages are sent from the brain to the muscles to initiate movement. Muscles coordinate in pairs to produce coordinated movement
- 4. + A motor unit A motor unit consists of one motor neuron and the muscle fibre it stimulates (Each neuron may stimulate a number of muscle fibres) Depending on the size and function of a muscle will depend on the number of motor units it has Example: The quadriceps is responsible for gross movement such as kicking and jumping. It has a very large number of motor units The muscles that control movements like writing and typing have only a small number of motor units.
- 6. + The all or nothing principle The nerve impulse will not stimulate the muscle fibres until it reaches a certain threshold level. Once the nerve impulse reaches this threshold, all fibres of the motor unit will contract at the same time and maximally. If the impulse is too weak, no fibres will contract. Therefore depending on the force required for a movement will impact the number and speed of nerve impulses sent.
