In the Unit 2 discussion, you discussed how occupational therapy (OT) could use a top down approach for intervention with a client. This week, in Unit 7, you will be observing a client in OT treatment. This video will allow you to apply the materials that you are reviewing regarding the muscular system. While you watch the following video, you will complete the table included in the attached word document and employ a top down approach while answering the following questions:
What function or occupational performance is limited for this client secondary to his physical limitation?
What joint movements are limited for this client that impact his occupational performance?
What muscles are limited for this client that cause the decreased joint movements that impact his occupational performance?
From your comprehensive list of muscles, select the muscle or muscle group that you feel is the most important to strengthen to increase the client’s occupational performance. Explain your choice.
