Q

Evidence and reasoning behind rehab

A
  1. management of many pain syndromes
  2. treatment of pain from tissue and psychological levels
  3. Mechanotransduction: the conversion of mechanical loads into cellular responses, and hence the structural change
  4. Adaptation response to exercise builds capacity which helps patient’s ability to perform task

    1. Palpate the muscle (patient and therapist)
    2. Clear instruction (including demonstrations) and verbal cues
    3. Verbal, visual (e.g. mirror), auditory and tactile feedback

Q

Endurance exercise

A

Ability of muscle to perform repeated or sustained contractions (resist muscular fatigue), particularly when using sub-maximal resistance

  • Targeted at muscle groups that are required to work at low-intensity for long periods
  • Nearly all exercise programs will include endurance
  • Level aligned to functional activity requirements

Q

Hypertrophy

A

Increase in muscle size (CSA)

  • After disuse or pain inhibited atrophy
  • An important adaptation of resistance training because increase in muscle fibre size is important in improving force production
  1. High volume > low volume
  2. Working to failure (high volume) important if low load
  3. Balance is key when dealing with compromised tissue
  4. Isolated exercises often necessary early
  5. Periodization is key

Q

Strength

A

Maximal amount of force exerted in a single attempt or Maximal force that muscle/muscle group can generate at a specified velocity

  1. Novice individuals = loads of 60-70%of1RMfor8-12repetition, Frequency 2 - 3 times per week, Volume 2 - 6 sets
  2. Experienced individuals = loads of 80-100%of1RMfor1-6repetitionsin a periodised manner, 3 - 4 times per week, Volume 2 - 6 sets

Q

Power

A

Explosive power

  • Ballistic (explosive) exercises: enable acceleration throughout the full range of motion
  • Plyometric exercises: that involve the activation of the stretch-shortening cycle of movement and incorporate an eccentric component that is followed by a fast concentric component
  1. Light to moderate loading (30-60% of 1 RM) performed at an explosive velocity”
  2. Long rest periods
  3. Often restricted to late-stage rehab

Q

3 types of muscle action

A

Isometric

  • Muscle force generated without movement/change in length of muscle

Isotonic

  • Concentric- Muscle gets shorter during active contraction. Total tension developed is sufficient to overcome an applied resistance
  • Eccentric- Muscle gets longer during active contraction - More muscle tension developed

Isokinetic

  • Muscle contracts while the joint moves at a constant speed throughout the range of motion

Q

Mobilisation

A

Increase joint and soft tissue ROM and reduce resistance to movement

Used when:

Q

Stretching

A

Increase soft tissue length and compliance

  • • Tight/shortened muscles are observed
  • • Warm up and cool down
  1. Static stretch
    • stretch passively and held 15-30s, 2-4 repetitions
  2. Dynamic Stretching
    • Involves continually moving a body apart through ROM Performed for 15-60s, or 10-20 repetitions
  3. Pre-contraction stretching:
    • A passive stretch of the muscle, followed by isometric contraction of the muscle held 3-10s and repeated 3-7 times

Q

Proprioception

A

Proprioception (position sense) is the body’s sense of position and movement, particularly limbs, which assists in the maintenance of balance and coordination

used on joint injury

Q

Gait analysis global observation

A

Class, age, body composition, psychology , happy, sad. have you noticed this?

Looking at the whole body.

Can you pick up a limp, a gallop , a short step, a hiked shoulder, a stiff/restricted section, ‘broken bum syndrome’ (acute low back), waddling.

25
Q

Gait analysis segmental observation

A

Start from the feet (watch one side then the other)

  • foot strike position, heel strike , toe walker , foot drop (neurological), foot position(toe in/out), over pronation, over supination

Often have both somatic referred and radicular pain

Can have associated bladder and bowel changes (Needs immediate Medical Assessment)

45
