Connecting Upper Extremity Biomechanics to Functional Activities

This lesson plan is designed to apply a biomechanical approach to analysis of upper extremity movement, development of interventions in therapeutic exercise and functional activities, and clinical reasoning of client change over time.

This activity supports the requirements for:

• The Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy (ACOTE) standards (2018):

  • OT: B.2.1, B.3.6, B.4.3, B.4.22

  • OTA: B.2.1, B.3.6, B.4.3, B.4.22

• The Commission on Education for Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE) standards:

  • PT: 7A, 7D19k, 7D20

  • PTA: 7D19, 7D23h
