Accreditation Check:

This three-part case-based series supplements JJ's Motor Learning Strategy courses and is designed to provide specific strategies for three different diagnoses that can immediately be incorporated into any treatment session being performed. In the second part of this series, J.J. Mowder-Tinney will identify three priority impairments of a patient following total knee arthroplasty and compare and contrast two intervention options utilizing motor learning principles in the acute rehabilitation setting. The course concludes with intervention options that utilize motor learning principles appropriate for later in the rehabilitation process, including the long-term care, outpatient, and home care setting.

After this course, ensure you watch Part C of the Motor Learning Strategy Case Studies:
Case Studies in Motor Learning Part C: Post-Stroke

We recommend you watch the following courses prior to this Case Study:
Motor Learning Strategies: Principles of Application
Motor Learning Strategies: Interventions at the Environment Level
Case Studies in Motor Learning Part A: Balance Deficits

1. Total Knee Arthroplasty

This chapter introduces a patient following total knee arthroplasty (TKA), John. J.J. Mower-Tinney uses this case study to identify three priority impairments of this patient following TKA. Several functional tests and assessments are used to identify the different impairments.

2. Motor Learning Considerations

After a identifying the patient’s key impairments, this chapter discusses the motor learning considerations for the patient. The chapter teaches users the seven key considerations to take into account for motor learning and emphasizes the importance of measuring change, improvement and outcomes. Finally, the chapter integrates two interventions that use motor learning principles in the acute and post-acute rehabilitation setting.

3. Intervention Options Later in Rehabilitation

When a patient is later in the rehabilitation process, therapists need to utilize interventions that incorporate motor learning principles that are appropriate for the long-term care, outpatient, and home care setting. This chapter discusses two intervention options that use motor learning principles that are appropriate for later stages of the rehabilitation process.
