Q

After post-op what should we look for in the indirect chart?

A 
Why is the patient in the hospital?
Surgical procedures
MD note on dat of PT eval/Rx
Post comp complications?
Diagnostic imaging?
CMC, chemistry panel, troponin, BNP
Vital signs/ECG trends

TALK TO THE NURSE:
Anything I need to know that isn’t in the chart
Falls, syncopal events, adverse symptoms, ECG changes
Has he been functional?

Q

What type of lower lung volumes issue we might see with patients post-op?

A

Atelectasis

20
Q

What are some key subjective exam questions?

A

Home environment
PLOF
DME
Home support

21
Q

If a pt has decreased walking time and distance over past 3-months we can hypothesize:

A

Already decreases functional/aerobic capacity impairment prior
Decreases strength
Decreased independence

22
Q

What is the scale for fall risk stratification for older adults?

A 
Fall history (8 points)
Living alone (3 points)
Taking 4 or more medications (3)
Female gender (3)

Low fall risk: 0-4 points
Moderate: 5-10 points
High fall risk: 11-16 points

23
Q

What does the Life space mobility assessment tell us?

A 
How far they travel?
Daily routine, weekly activities?
How mobile are our patient?
Can they access diff areas of the home?
Are they going into the community?
How much are they limited?

Helps us find motivation to give your patient to focus on and improve QOL and life participation.

24
Q

The life space mobility measures how many days prior?

A

Last 30 days

25
Q

What resources do we need to get our patients to enter life space 5?

A 
Safety & balance
Strength & power to sustain functional demands
Aerobic capacity
Cognitive function
Financial
Mobility assistance
26
Q

What does the Duke Activity Status Index (DASI) tell you?

A

Gives us an idea based on a patient’s functional capacity on what activities they have been doing

27
Q

What components are on the DASI?

A

0.43 timesEstimates VO2peak up to 34 ml/kg/min or 9.8 METS

Helps us initiate intervention and set goals

28
Q

How is VO2peak calculated with a DASI?

A

0.43 x DASI + 9.6

29
Q

What is the minimal aerobic capacity to remain functional independent?

A

Males: 18 ml/kg/min (5.14 METS)
Females: 15 ml//kg/min (4.3 METS)

30
Q

Each L of oxygen increases by how much percent?

A

3-4%

31
Q

Why would a patient be max A for bed mobility while mod A for sit-to-stand?

A

Trunk/Proximal muscles atrophied from surgery and bedridden

32
Q

To stand you need:

A

Power

Leg strength, larger muscle groups…

33
Q

No gross weakness means…

A

Document better! Can’t measure this…

34
Q

What will contractures of PF and subtler pronation restriction impact?

A

Sit to stand
Walking
Transfers

35
Q

Objective exam:

A 
Vitals
Telemetry
Pulmonary sounds
Heart sounds
Chest wall excursion
IS
36
Q

What can be missing or not helping our patient with our documentation?

A

Gait analysis!
Things affected ambulation!
Gait speed??
Quality of gait.

37
Q

Hypothesis of Key Impairments

A 
Compromised function and aerobic capacity
Decreased gait speed
Decreased muscular power
Frailty
Fall risk
38
Q

What test can we use in older adults to give us measurable documentation on a patient’s function?

A

SPPB
Static standing balance
gait speed in 4m
5x sit to stand

39
Q

If balance is impaired, is an SPPB enough? What else can we use?

A

NO! BERG.

40
Q

Which part of the SPPB independently can be used to show fall risk?

A

5x sit-to-stand

41
Q

What are the normative for 5x sit-to-stand?

A

Age 60-69 = 11.4s
Age 70-79 = 12.6s
Age 80-89 = 14.8s
>15s 2x the incidence of falls

0-4 = 5 fold increase risk
5-7 = 2.6 fold increase risk
1 point increase in SPPB = 14% reduction in risk

42
Q

One point increase in the SPPB reduces how much risk?

A

14%

Justifies a its needs for PT

43
Q

What speed do you need to get across the red light?

A

0.8 m/s

44
Q

FITT principle

A

How can we progress OP PT program to address functional capacity limitation.

Start to write of exercise programs!

45
Q

What was significant associated w/ MCID in SPPB and gait speed?

A

Muscular power!!

46
Q

What training approaches to improve aerobic capacity?

A

Aerobic & Resistance combined!!

Increase CV O2 delivery, oxidative capacity, muscle weakness

Want to impact all!!!

47
Q

With d/c planing think about?

A

PLOF

Physical performance - future disability
