Their exteroceptive senses (touch, movement, stereognosis, and vibratory) must be sufficiently intact to perform activities required for a complete physical therapy education. (uiowa.edu)
Graphesthesia2
Cortical sensory function is evaluated by asking the patient to identify a familiar object (eg, coin, key) placed in the palm of the hand (stereognosis) and numbers written on the palm (graphesthesia) and to distinguish between 1 and 2 simultaneous, closely placed pinpricks on the fingertips (2-point discrimination). (merckmanuals.com)
Stereognosis (also known as haptic perception or tactile gnosis) is the ability to perceive and recognize the form of an object in the absence of visual and auditory information, by using tactile information to provide cues from texture, size, spatial properties, and temperature, etc. (wikipedia.org)

An individual's observational skills involve the use of one's senses and cognitive abilities. (graceland.edu)
Intellectual ability2
Students are expected to possess the intellectual ability to learn, integrate, analyze, and synthesize data. (uiowa.edu)
It is necessary that students have the emotional health to maximize their intellectual ability, exercise good judgment, and complete all responsibilities required for the evaluation and treatment of patients. (uiowa.edu)

involves verbal ability, problem-solving skills, and the ability to learn from & adapt to experiences of daily life: As therapist we don't really go off of this. (flashcardmachine.com)
Recognize1
increased, faster ability to recognize & recall more information. (flashcardmachine.com)
Tests1
Stereognosis tests determine whether or not the parietal lobe of the brain is intact. (wikipedia.org)
Object1
An individual who cannot properly identify an object using stereognosis, could suffer from lesions in nerve roots, peripheral nerves, the spinal cord, thalamus, or primary sensory cortex. (wikipedia.org)
Written1
The American Psychiatric Association stated that Writing difficulty can be defined also as a combination of difficulties in an individual's ability to compose a written text that is manifested by illegible handwriting, letter shape distortion, dysfluent writing, spelling errors, and difficulty in written expression of ideas that cannot be attributed to disabilities in reading or oral expression [5].

Complete5
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the possible association between the oral stereognostic ability and masticatory efficiency at the time of denture insertion and after 6 months in complete denture wearers. (bvsalud.org)
The issue whether oral stereognosis also helps in patients' adaptation towards complete denture prosthesis is still ambiguous. (bvsalud.org)

Perform activities1
Poor strength directly impacts on the ability to perform activities such as walking and moving. (physio-pedia.com)
Basic2
These include basic motor and communication skills, intellectual abilities, behavioral and social attributes, and other requirements. (graceland.edu)
This study is further an attempt to understand the basic physiology of oral stereognosis and whether there is any possible relation between oral stereognosis and masticatory efficiency. (bvsalud.org)
Test2
First, on the day of denture fit-in oral stereognostic ability test was conducted, followed by masticatory efficiency was carried out. (bvsalud.org)
The ability to test these in a systematic and slick manner is one of the key requirements as a medical student. (doctorkhalid.com)
Individuals1
Oral stereognostic ability in edentulous and dentate individuals. (bvsalud.org)
Form1
ability to remember for immediate recall (4 - 5 seconds) all of the characteristics of a form and match form among several similar forms exp: show them one pic and then shwo them 3 more and have them pick the one they saw. (flashcardmachine.com)
Time1
Within the limitation of this study, it can be concluded that oral stereognostic ability improves with time, which might be due to adaptation to the denture. (bvsalud.org)
Correlation2
There was weak correlation between oral stereognosis and masticatory efficiency. (bvsalud.org)
[ 11-16 ] Cross-sectional and longitudinal volumetric studies have demonstrated a strong correlation between volume of the hippocampus and OI ability in AD. (medscape.com)
Deficit1
[ 1 ] The first observed olfactory deficit in patients with AD is not the ability to detect various odors, but to identify them correctly. (medscape.com)
Hand3
Hand proprioception, the sense of the posture and movements of the wrist and digits, is critical to dexterous manual behavior and to stereognosis, the ability to sense the three-dimensional structure of objects held in the hand. (nih.gov)
Assesses hand function with understanding that proximal upper extremity function will influence ability to place and position the hand. (ebeventures.com)
Cortical sensory function is evaluated by asking the patient to identify a familiar object (eg, coin, key) placed in the palm of the hand (stereognosis) and numbers written on the palm (graphesthesia) and to distinguish between 1 and 2 simultaneous, closely placed pinpricks on the fingertips (2-point discrimination).

Sense1
The nurse knows that which of the following terms best describes one's ability to sense of shape and size of an object in the absence of visualization? (nursingtestbankltd.com)

To this end, we measured the ability of human subjects to discriminate changes in posture and speed around the three joints of the index finger. (nih.gov)
Patients4
The issue whether oral stereognosis also helps in patients' adaptation towards complete denture prosthesis is still ambiguous. (bvsalud.org)
OI ability can therefore not be used to distinguish patients with MCI from those with AD. (medscape.com)
[ 8 ] The reason why some patients retain OI ability longer than others is unknown, and we wished to investigate this further in the present study. (medscape.com)
We also wished to examine whether differences in cognitive measures and brain structure volumes could be detected when patients were divided according to their OI ability. (medscape.com)
Activity1
Once an analysis of all three areas is complete, the therapist can modify the activity and/or the environment to enhance the patient's ability to participate. (mhmedical.com)
Influence1
Environmental factors are the physical characteristics of the environment that may impede or promote performance and the social and/or cultural values and beliefs that may influence a patient's ability and desire to perform specific ADL. (mhmedical.com)
