LSVT BIG MODULES QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED
ACCURATE ANSWERS
Advances in neuroscience have impacted rehabilitation by - Answers -Providing data to
support the impact of physical exercise on symptoms of PD and disease modifications
LSVT is - Answers -LSVT Loud (single target, intensive and high effort treatment, and
sensory calibration) with a single cue MOVE BIG
LSVT protocols have a research background summarized as - Answers -Ovre 20 years
of NIH funded research documenting the efficiency and underlying basis of LVST
protocols
LSVT stands for - Answers -Lee Silverman Voice Treatment
Three paradigm shifts associated with LSVT BIG are - Answers -Target, mode, and
calibration
The single treatment target of improving amplitude (bigness)in LSVT BIG is important
because it - Answers -provides a single cognitive focus, enhances many levels of
moment (amplitude, speed, balance), and improves efficiency of treatment
LSVT BIG is different from traditional therapy for people with PD in what way - Answers
-LSVT BIG uses a single treatment target, is delivered in an intense high effort manor
and addresses sensory processing impairments
intensive high effort delivery of treatment in LSVT BIG is important because - Answers -
it drives maximal plasticity and is consistent with principles of motor learning.
Calibration in LSVT BIG addresses - Answers -sensory/internal
cueing/neuropsychological deficits
intensity across sessions in LSVT BIG involves all of the following - Answers -treatment
4 consecutive days a week 4 weeks
daily homework 30 days of the month
daily exercises 30 days a month
establishing a life long habit of practice
Calibration in LSVT BIG is defined as - Answers -Patients know and accept the amount
of effort needed to consistently produce bigger movements, and they use bigger
movements in daily living
