|December 1, 1983
Abstract:
Deficits in sensorimotor integration, cognition, and psychosocial behavior may lead to a characteristic set of problems in the head-injured adult. An inpatient Sensorimotor Integration Class for ambulatory head-injured patients was developed to introduce challenging sensorimotor activities before these patients established avoidance patterns. The class includes perceptual motor, sensory integration, and sports activities. Clinical observations suggest that the class leads to improved quality of movement for participants. Objective research is needed to document clinical observations.
