Balance scenario 3

• Unable to maintain independent standing without use of upper limb support or resting against a support. Tending to take step when asked to move head or close eyes (visual reliance)

  • Main Analysis Findings
  • Base of support - moderate - can stand but only with use of upper limb
  • moderate sensory visual dependency - Tending to take step when asked to move head or close eyes - VISION IS 10% OF SENSORY INPUT and helps form motor memories

  
• Unable to maintain independent standing without use of upper limb support or resting against a support. Tending to take step when asked to move head or close eyes (visual reliance)

  • Further tests/investigations you would like to do
  • refer to balance scenario 2
• Unable to maintain independent standing without use of upper limb support or resting against a support. Tending to take step when asked to move head or close eyes (visual reliance)

  • A suitable outcome measure
  • refer to balance scenario 2
• Unable to maintain independent standing without use of upper limb support or resting against a support. Tending to take step when asked to move head or close eyes (visual reliance)

  • Justification for selection of treatment
  • start by standing and using both arms to support, with both eyes open
• Unable to maintain independent standing without use of upper limb support or resting against a support. Tending to take step when asked to move head or close eyes (visual reliance)

  • Justification of approaches to facilitated learning
  • refer to balance scenario 1
• Unable to maintain independent standing without use of upper limb support or resting against a support. Tending to take step when asked to move head or close eyes (visual reliance)

  • progression
  • remove one arm, then both
  • close one eye, then both
  • progress from standing to tiptoes
