x, 612 pages : illustrations ; 29 cm. This fourth edition is the only text to bridge the gap between current motor control research and its applications to clinical practice. The text prepares therapists to examine and treat patients with problems related to balance, mobility, and upper extremity function, based on the best available evidence supporting clinical practice. This edition provides the latest research findings and their clinical applications in postural control, mobility, and upper extremity function. Drawings, charts, tables, and photographs are also included to clarify postural control and functional mobility, and laboratory activities, and case studies are provided to reinforce key concepts. The DVD examines motor control deficits, including deficits in postural control, mobility, and upper extremity function in different types of neurologic pathology (stroke, cerebellar pathology, cerebral palsy, and Parkinson's disease) as well as in balance impaired elders. These videos can be viewed in their entirety or in the following segments: impairments, postural control, mobility, and upper extremity control. This video enhances the clinical coverage found in the textbook. Motor control : issues and theories -- Motor learning and recovery of function -- Physiology of motor control -- Physiological basis of motor learning and recovery of function -- Constraints on motor control : an overview of neurologic impairments -- A conceptual framework for clinical practice -- Normal postural control -- Development of postural control -- Aging and postural control -- Abnormal postural control -- Clinical management of the patient with postural control disorder -- Control of normal mobility -- A life span perspective of mobility -- Abnormal mobility -- Clinical management of the patient with a mobility disorder -- Normal reach, grasp, and manipulation -- Reach grasp, and manipulation : changes across the life span -- Abnormal reach, grasp, and manipulation -- Clinical management of the patient with reach, grasp, or manipulation disorders.
