Q

What are the functional importance of degrees of freedom

A
  • Joint stability: slight translational adjustments help maintain joint congruency
    during motion
  • Shock absorption: small translations dissipate forces during impact
  • Pathological assessment: excessive or restricted translation can indicate injury
    (ex: ligament tears in knee)

Q

Definition spin

A
  • Occurs when 1 point of joint end contacts only one point of opposite end
  • Rotary motion occurring when segment bone under consideration rotates around
    its own axis
18
Q

Describe 2 types of combined movement

A
  • Roll & slide: associated with each other during physiological movements in
    planes of motion when convex surface moves over a concave one
  • Swing & glide: associated with each other during physiological movements in
    planes of motion when concave surface moves over a convex one
19
Q

Concave-convex rules

A
  • Always at foundation for guiding clinicians in making choices related to execution
    of manual therapy techniques
  • Rules can be reasonable starting point for making such decisions as long as
    factors such as joint’s resting position and local tensions within muscles,
    ligaments or other connective tissues are considered
20
Q

Description of joint position

A
  • Joint congruence not perfect
  • Contact area between joint at different points in ROM is minimum compared to total available joint surface area
21
Q

5 main infos about closed-packed position + description

A

Closed-packed position
1. Position of maximum joint stability
2. Usually at end-range
3. Ligaments, capsular component, and other peri-articular tissues in moderate-to-maximum tension
4. Minimal or no accessory movements
5. Minimal intra-capsular space in joint

Closed-packed position is:
- Effective for loading (static)
- Dangerous for movement (dynamic)
- Testing position

22
Q

5 main infos and description of open-packed position

A
  1. Position of minimum joint stability
  2. Usually mid-range
  3. Ligaments, capsular component, and other peri-articular tissues in minimal tension
  4. Ancillary movements allowed
  5. Maximum intra-capsular space in joint

Loose-packed position is:
- Position allowing maximum joint play (useful for treatment)
- Resting position of joint
- Ineffective for load (static)
- Safe for movement (dynamic)

23
Q

Table joint and open / closed packed position

A

Table 1

24
Q

Description of capsular pattern

A

Capsular obligated translation
- Concept that restrictions in extensibility (stiffness) of joint capsule may cause early and/ or excessive translations or accessory movements in opposite
direction of stiffness

25
Q

Features of capsular patterns

A

Proportional restriction:
o Movement limitations occur in specific & predictable order of severity
o Different movements are restricted in proportional pattern, not necessarily equally

26
Q

Causes of capsular patterns

A

Associated with pathology affecting entire joint capsule
o Arthritis
o Capsulitis
o Post-immobilization joint stiffness

27
Q

Diagnostic value of capsular pattern

A

→ Recognizing capsular pattern helps identify joint pathologies & differentiate them
from other causes of movement restriction

28
Q

Capsular pattern of articulations

A

Table 2

29
Q

Definition of end-feel

A

= sensation felt by examiner at end of joint’s passive ROM. Provides information about
nature of tissues limiting motions and helps identify normal or pathological conditions

30
Q

Definition of normal end-feels

A

= expected sensations encountered in healthy joints & tissues

31
Q

3 examples of normal end-feels with description, example and causes of each

A
32
Q

Definition of abnormal end-feels

A

= occur when end feel is inconsistent with expected motion or occurs prematurely

33
Q

6 abnormal end-feels with description, examples and causes

A

Table

34
Q

Treatment description

A
  • Pain + reduced joint mobility = restriction in activity & participation = disability (ICF)
  • ROM = one of crucial aspects of MSK rehabilitation & its restriction (hypomobility)
    impairment as important as pain
35
Q

needed to treat efficiently abnormal endfeel

A

To treat efficiently, need to know:
1. Type of MSK disorder
2. Joint biomechanics
3. Joint and muscle anatomy & physiology
4. Movements between respective joint profiles (arthrokinematics)

36
Q

Movement limited, capsule involved and accessory movement for treatment of different articulations

A

Table

37
Q

Types of treatment

A

Combining accessory & physiological movement

Strain-counterstrain (positional release therapy)

Graded mobilizations (Maitland)

38
Q

Purpose and technique of Combining accessory & physiological movement

A
  • Purpose: improve ROM by integrating passive accessory glides with active or
    passive physiological movements
  • Technique:
    1. Position of joint: place joint in starting position where limitation occurs
    2. Apply accessory movement: mobilize joint along glide direction (ant, post,
    inf…) while maintaining appropriate hand placement & force
    3. Add physiological movement:
    a. Passive: therapist moves joint through ROM while maintain glide
    b. Active: patient actively performs movement while therapist applies
    glide
    4. Reassess: check for improvement in ROM or reduce symptoms
39
Q

Purpose and technique of Strain-counterstrain (positional release therapy)

A
  • Purpose: reduce muscle guarding & pain by positioning joint in its most relaxed
    and least painful position
  • Technique
    1. Find tender point: identify painful or tight area related to joint or movement
    limitation
    2. Position for comfort: passively position joint to shorten involved tissue and
    relieve tension
    3. Hold position: maintain position for 90 sec while monitoring patient’s comfort
    & symptoms
    4. Reassess: return joint to neutral & test ROM or pain reduction
40
Q

Purpose, grades and technique of Graded mobilizations (Maitland)

A
  • Purpose: gradually increase joint’s ROM & reduce stiffness or pain
  • Grades:
    o Grade I-II: small amplitude movements for pain relief & relaxation
    o Grade III-IV: larger amplitude movements toward end range to stretch
    capsule
    o Grade V (manipulation): high-velocity, low amplitude thrusts used
    sparingly by trained professionals
  • Technique:
    o Amplitude and rhythm
    o Apply smooth, rhythmic oscillation at chosen grade
    o Typically, 2-3 oscillations per second for 30 seconds to 2 min
  • Start with grade I-II to reduce pain & spasm
  • Progress to grades III-IV to improve ROM
41
Q

CCL: advantage of osteokinematics, advantages of arthrokinematics, concave-convex pattern

A

CONCLUSION
- Osteokinematics aids understanding of mutual behavior of joint profiles & to
visualize in mind behavior of joints in angular movements
- Arthrokinematics provides useful insights into administration of joint techniques
- “Bare bones” study of joint kinematics alone is meaningless
- Concave-convex pattern = one principles that guide our decision making clinical
& will be integrated with new findings on pain-related neuroscience
