The Sequence of Prehension Patterns: Essential when you're doing Dexterity Retraining

Audio

Description

In this episode of OT Conversations, we look into the sequence of prehension patterns necessary for upper limb motor retraining. Whether dealing with stroke recovery, neurological conditions, or pediatric cases, we break down the importance of understanding and stimulating different types of grasping movements. Starting with gross prehension patterns like hook, cylindrical, and spherical grasps, and moving into fine prehension patterns such as lateral pinch, tripod pinch, pad-to-pad pinch, and tip-to-tip pinch, this episode provides valuable insights for effective rehabilitation. Additionally, we touch on the significance of in-hand manipulation skills and the importance of proximal control in hand therapy. This is an essential episode for anyone in occupational therapy or those looking to improve their knowledge of prehension pattern retraining.
