Balance scenario 2

• Visual reliant for balance in standing: losing balance when pulling jumper over head

  • Main Analysis Findings
  • base of support - moderate level as they can stand
  • sensory - visually reliant as lose balance when jumped pulled over head - VISION IS 10% OF SENSORY INPUT and helps form motor memories

  
• Visual reliant for balance in standing: losing balance when pulling jumper over head

  • Further tests/investigations you would like to do:
  • are they visually dependent when sitting
  • can they progress to tip toes/tandem
  • Romberg Test: evaluates an individual's ability to maintain balance with eyes closed and feet together
  • Functional Mobility Assessment: Assessing functional mobility and balance during activities of daily living - can show how visually reliant he is in real world scenarios
• Visual reliant for balance in standing: losing balance when pulling jumper over head

  • A suitable outcome measure
  • Romberg Test
  • Functional mobility assessment
  • Berg Balance Scale
• Visual reliant for balance in standing: losing balance when pulling jumper over head

  • Justification for selection of treatment
  • start in standing with both eyes open, moving stuff from above to below (mimic jumper going over head)
  • using safety bard
  • OR regress to sitting and close both eyes
• Visual reliant for balance in standing: losing balance when pulling jumper over head

  • progression
  • close one eye, then blink, then blink for longer, close both eyes
  • progress to tip toes
• Visual reliant for balance in standing: losing balance when pulling jumper over head

  • Justification of approaches to facilitated learning:
  • refer to balance scenario 1
