1. Relapsing-remitting MS characterized by periods
of improvement and sta-
bility in between attacks.
Relapse and remission.
This is due to the remyeli-
nation of axons.
2. Primary Progressive MS Disease progression from
onset, without plateaus or
remissions, steady decline
3. Secondary Progressive MS initial relapsing-remitting
MS that suddenly begins
to have decline without
periods of remission
4. auto immune disorder when your immune sys-
tem starts to attack cells
that belong to you
5. Spacticity abnormal increase in
muscle tone or stiffness of
muscle
6. Vertigo in MS dizziness and feeling off
balance are common
symptoms of MS, can be
caused by MS legions on
cerebellum
7. Hyperreflexia Abnormally increased re-
flexes resulting from ner-
vous system damage

8. Dysmetria inability to control the dis-
tance, power, and speed
of a muscular action
9. 4 P's of energy conservation prioritize, plan, pace, po-
sition
10. MS symptoms Fatigue, muscle weakness,
loss of motor control, cog-
nition impairment, pain,
heat sensitivity, ataxia,
dysphagia
11. MS assessments - Modified Fatigue Impact
Scale
- Nine-Hole Peg Test or
Purdue Pegboard Test
- MS Spasticity Scale
- 6 min walk test
- TECA (test of everyday
cognitive ability)
- tremor severity scale
- box of blocks
12. MS interventions educate on energy con-
servation techniques
teaching how to use mod-
ifications/adaptive equip-
ment (like cooling vests,
sock aids)

ment changes (grab rails,
more places to sit, etc)
13. Guillan-Barre syndrome A disease of unknown eti-
ology that causes paraly-
sis that progresses quick-
ly starting at feet, typically
has a full recovery
14. Guillan-Barre syndrome symptoms - absence of deep tendon
reflexes
- sensory loss in glove and
stocking like pattern
- PAIN
- urinary dysfunction
- fatigue
- respiratory muscle paral-
ysis
- ANS response postural
HTN & Tachycardia
15. 3 phases of Guillain-Barre 1. Acute inflammatory
2. plateau
3. recovery
16. Assessments for guillain-barre acute and plateau functional assessments
interviews on comfort and
anxiety
general screening
17. interventions for guillain-barre acute and plateau positioning, temp modifi-
cations, education
