Chapter 1 The Basics Flashcards
Cervical superior facet orientation?
Backward, upward, medial
Thoracic superior facet orientation?
Backward, upward, lateral
Lumbar superior facet orientation?
Backward, medial
Isotonic contraction?
Muscle contraction that results in tension remaining the same while muscle length shortens; operator’s force is less than patient’s force
Isometric contraction?
Muscle contraction that results in the increase in tension without a change in muscle length; operator’s force is equal to patient’s force
Isolytic contraction?
Muscle contraction against resistance while forcing the muscle to lengthen; operator’s force is more than patient’s force
Concentric contraction?
Muscle contraction that results in the approximation of the muscle’s origin and insertion
Eccentric contraction?
Lengthening of muscle during contraction due to an external force
Myofascial release?
Direct and indirect, active and passive
Counterstrain?
Indirect, passive
Facilitated positional release?
Indirect, passive
Muscle energy?
Direct, active
HVLA?
Direct, passive
Cranial?
Direct and indirect, passive
Lymphatic treatment?
Direct, passive
Chapman’s reflexes?
Direct, passive
In type I dysfunction, what motion precedes what?
SB precedes rotation (NSlRr)
In type II dysfunction, what motion precedes what?
Rotation precedes SB (FRrSr)
What is the only subjective component of TART?
Tenderness
2 types of isotonic contraction?
1) Concentric (shortening)
2) Eccentric (lengthening)
Upward mvt of a bicep curl?
Concentric contraction
Downward mvt of a bicep curl?
Eccentric
Contraction in which tension remains the same?
Isotonic
