Treatment of hypothermia ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔Passive
rewarming, active total rewarming , active core rewarming . Support
vital functions . Prevention and treatment of complications
motor function pathway ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔spinal cord-> brain
stem ->motor cortex -> cerebellum and basal ganglia
what portion of the spinal cord is responsive for movement
✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔LMN in the ventral horn
,How does the motor cortex organize movement ✔✔CORRECT
ANSWER✔✔UMNs project from the motor cortex to the opposite side
of the medulla where they form a pyramid before crossing the midline
to form the lateral corticospinal tract in spinal cord
primary motor cortex ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔responsible for
execution of a movement
premotor cortex ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔generating a plan of
movement
supplemental motor cortex ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔rehearsing motor
sequences of movement (includes both sides of the body)
LMN- lower muscle neuron ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔orginates in the
spinal cord and travels to the muscle/glands in the body
UMN- upper muscle neuron ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔originates in the

stretch and deep tendon reflexes ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔spinal
reflexes- > muscle spindles of the stretch reflex function to monitor and
correct for changes in muscle length when extrafusal fibers are either
shortened (contraction) or lengthened (by stretch)
, paresis ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔weakness
paralysis ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔loss of muscle movement
atrophy ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔loss of muscle
hypertrophy ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔increase in muscle mass
hypotonia or flaccidity ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔less than normal
muscle tone
hypertonia or spacitiy ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔excessive tone
coordination of movement ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔requires the
function of the reflex circuitry that monitors the functional status of
muscle fibers on a moment- to -moment basis
what are abnormal and uncoordinated movements or postures are
suggestive of ✔✔CORRECT ANSWER✔✔cerebellar or basal ganglia
pathologic process
