AB  - Careful  examination  and  evaluation  of  impairments,  activity  limitations,  and  participation  restrictions  enable  the  therapist  to  identify  movement  deficiencies  to  target  during  rehabilitation.  Restorative  interventions  focus  on  targeted  movement  deficiencies  and  utilize  activity-based  interventions  and  motor  learning  strategies.  To  be  most  effective,  restorative  interventions  include  three  basic  elements:  (1)  repetitive  and  intense  practice  of  task-oriented,  functional  activities,  (2)  strategies  that  enhance  active  motor  learning  and  adherence-enhancing  behaviors,  and  (3)  strategies  that  encourage  use  of  more-impaired  body  segments  while  limiting  use  of  less-impaired  segments.  During  early  recovery,  patients  with  limited  motor  function  who  are  unable  to  perform  voluntary  movements  or  have  limited  control  (e.g.,  patients  with  stroke  or  traumatic  brain  injury  [TBI])  may  benefit  from  augmented  intervention  strategies.  This  is  a  more  hands-on  approach  to  training  and  includes  guided,  assisted,  or  facilitated  movements.  Neuromotor  approaches  such  as  Proprioceptive  Neuromuscular  Facilitation  (PNF)  and  Neurodevelopmental  Treatment  (NDT)  incorporate  a  number  of  strategies  and  techniques  to  promote  movement.  Patients  with  severe  movement  deficiencies,  limited  recovery  potential,  and  multiple  comorbidities  and  impairments  (e.g.,  the  patient  with  severe  stroke  and  severe  cardiac  and  respiratory  compromise)  benefit  from  compensatory  intervention  strategies  designed  to  promote  early  resumption  of  function.  Interventions  include  using  altered  movement  strategies,  focusing  on  using  less-involved  body  segments  for  function,  assistive  devices,  and  environmental  adaptation.
