8 bar), whereas the pattern for the double jig is three eighth notes twice per 6 8 bar. Hop jigs. Hop jigs are the fastest of all jigs next to light jigs, but the term hop jig causes some confusion, as some people use it for a single jig, while others use this term to refer to a tune in 9 8 time. Among the latter, some do not distinguish it from a slip jig, while some reserve the term to a slip jig variant that has special characteristics, in particular an emphasis on 1/4â1/8 pairs. Treble jigs. Treble jigs (also called the hard or heavy jig) are performed in hard shoes, and also to a 6 8 time metre.
Compared to quadriplegia, spastic quadriplegia is defined by spasticity of the limbs as opposed to strict paralysis.It is distinguishable from other forms of cerebral palsy in that those afflicted with the condition display stiff, jerky movements stemming from hypertonia of the muscles.ompared to quadriplegia, spastic quadriplegia is defined by spasticity of the limbs as opposed to strict paralysis.
spasticity. [spastisâ²itÄ]. Etymology: Gk, spastikos, drawing in. a form of muscular hypertonicity with increased resistance to stretch. It usually involves the flexors of the arms and the extensors of the legs.The hypertonicity is often associated with weakness, increased deep reflexes, and diminished superficial reflexes. Moderate spasticity is characterized by movements that require great effort and lack of normal coordination.Slight spasticity may be marked by gross movements that are coordinated smoothly but combine selective movement patterns that are incoordinated or impossible.ne type of increase in muscle tone at rest; characterized by increased resistance to passive stretch, velocity dependent and asymmetric about joints (that is, greater in the flexor muscles at the elbow and the extensor muscles at the knee).
