Adjunctive Flashcards
Proprioception relates primarily to which samatic sense?
Mechanoreceptive-position sense
Which is typically the least “proprioceptively enriched” rehabilitation exercise?
Wall Push-Up
When doing thigh stretches with a partner, which practice is especially important to help avoid injury?
Stretching at a slow, steady pace
True or False? The sooner you attend to swelling after an injury the better, and the best approach is to apply cold directly to the injuryed area right away.
TRUE
Icing should be stopped?
When the skin begins to feel numb
True or False? New evidence suggests that stretching immediately before exercise does not prevent overuse or acute injuries.
TRUE
T/F? Stretches must be held to obtain maximum range of motion because muscles are purely elastic.
False (viscoelastic)
T/F? Passive warming of a muscle before stretching or icing during the stretch can be used to increase the range of motion but will not prevent injury.
TRUE
The effectiveness of active warm-up to decrease stiffness appears to be related to the: (3 elements)
Type of warm-up, muscle tested, order of warm-up
T/F? PNF stretching has resulted in greater increases in range of motion compared with static or ballistic stretching.
TRUE
When using aqueous ultrasound the wattage should be:
Increased 0.5 watts
Low voltage electrical stimulation is best used to assist the treatment of:
pain, muscle spasm
When using intererential the treatment time should be at least:
20
Which of the following is a heating and mechanical method of treatment?
ultrasound
__________ is a form of energy that can be made to exhibit magnetic, chemical, mechanical, thermal, and electrostatic effects.
Electricity
Which of the following modalities uses the “gate control” theory of pain reduction: TENS, E-Stim, Ultrasound, High volt galvonic
TENS
Which of the following uses an endogenous approach: ultrasound, interferential, moist hot pacs, icing?
interferential
The major claim for this modality is that there is little cutaneous stimulation, and the treatment is more comfortable
high voltage piulsed stimulation
