- Paraventricular nuclei controls (asked 2x):
a milk ejection
b. uterine contraction
c. all of these
d. water reabsorption (ADH)
- Which special test/sign will confirm complete regeneration of ulnar nerve?
a. Froments Sign
b. Egawa sign
c. Any test for ulnar nerve injury
d. AOTA
- if chordae tympany is affected, what will be the manifestation?
a. Loss of taste
b. Hearing problem
- You ask your patient to reach his back pocket. What movement?
a Internal Rotation
b. External Rotation
- Erector Spinae is active when?
a Quiet inspiration
b. quiet expiration c. forced inspiration
d. forced expiration
- Deep peroneal nerve damage. Which movement will be greatly affected?
a. Inversion
b. DF
c. Eversion
d. None of these
- Muscle for forceful expiration
a. Erector Spinae
b. Abdominal Muscle
- A patient is recovering from a complete ASIA A C5 tetraplegia. The OT is performing PROM exercises on the mat when the patient complains of a sudden, pounding headache and double vision. The OT notices that the patient is sweating excessively, and determines BP at 240/95 mmHg. The OT’s best course of action is to: (a91)
a. Lay the patient down, open the shirt and monitor respiratory rate closely
b. Sit the patient up, check/ empty catheter and then call for emergency medical assistance
c. Place the patient in a supported sitting position and continue to monitor BP before calling for help
d. Lay the patient down immediately elevate the legs and then call for a nurse
6. NOTA
- The therapist tests a patient’s hearing by holding a vibrating tuning fork on the mastoid process and then in front of the ear. Comparison is made by asking the patient which is louder, bone conduction or air conduction. If bone conduction is greater than air conduction, the patient is experiencing:
a. Conductive hearing loss
b. Sensorineural hearing loss
c. Both
d. None of the above
- A patient with recent trauma presents with restricted movement of the right hand. There is decreased motion at the third right MCP joint. To differentiate as to whether this is joint restriction or some other type of tightness (not joint). which examination procedure should be employed?
a. Tight retinacular test
b. Froment’s sign
c. Egawa’s sign
d. Bunnel-Littier test
e. NOTA
- Where should the axis be placed when measuring forearm pronation?
a. Along the volar border of the ulna and radius
b. Along the dorsal border of the ulna and radius
c. Perpendicular to the humerus
d. Perpendicular to the ground
- Quick way to test the radial nerve:
a. Wrist flexion
b. Wrist extension
c. Finger abduction
d. Finger flexion
- As action potential travels over the muscle fiber membrane, large quantities of calcium ions are released which activate the forces between filaments to initiate contraction. This causes:
a The myosin filaments to slide inward among the actin filaments
b. The actin filaments to slide outward among the myosin filaments
c. The actin filaments to slide inward among the myosin filaments
d. The myosin filaments to slide outward among the actin filaments
- The difference of stress urinary incontinence from urge incontinence, is that in stress incontinence, The OT should Investigate for:
a. history of tumor in the prostate
b. Presence of cystocele
c. Hyperactivity of the bladder
d. Weak pelvic floor muscle
