Q

Examines symmetrical lower extremity mobility and stability, and upper extremity stability during a bend and lift movement

  • The equipment required for this screen are 2 2 to 4 foot dowels or broomsticks
  • the client is to perform a series of bend and lift movements holding the lower position for 2 seconds so that the trainer Ken make observations.
  • frontal view observations:
    A. First repetition: observe the stability of the foot ( example pronation)
    B. Second repetition: observe alignment of knees over second toe.
    C. Third repetition: their competition observe the overall symmetry of the entire body over the base of support ( evidence of lateral shift the rotation so on so forth)
  • Sagittal view observations:
    A. First repetition: observe whether the heel remains in contact with the floor through the movement.
    B.Second repetition: second. Determine whether the client exhibits glutes sore quadriceps dominance (i.e., does he or she initiate the downward phase by driving the nice forward or pushing the hips backward?)
    C. Third repetition: observe whether the client achieves a Pearla position between the tibia and torso in the lowest position (sometimes referred to as the figure 4 position) while also observing whether he or she controls The descent to avoid resting the hamstrings against the calves.
    D. Fourth repetition: observe the degree of lordosis in the lumbar/thoracic spine during the lowering movement and while the client is in the lowered position (i.e., flat to neutral or demonstrated increase in lirdosis )and watch for excessive thoracic extension in the lowered position.
    D. Fifth repetition: observe any changes of head position during the lowering phase.

23
Q

To examine bilateral mobility of the thoracic spine.

A

Thoracic spine mobility screen

24
Q

Assesses the length of the quadriceps muscles involved in hip flexion. This test can actually assess the length of the primary hip flexors.
Observations:
- does back of lowerbleg touch the table?
- does knee of lowered leg achieve 80 degrees flexion?
-does knee remain aligned straight or does it fall into internal or external rotation.

A

Thomas test for hip flexion/quadricep length

25
Q 
What test does this interpret?
-Movement/limitation:
Back and sacrum flat, Back of thigh does not tpuch the table and knee does not flex to 80 degrees
-Suspected muscle tightness:
Primary hip flexors

-Movement/Limitation:
Back and sacrum flat and back of lowered thigh does not touch the table, knee does flex to 80 degrees.
-Suspected muscle tightness:
The illiopsas, which is preventing the hip from rotating posteriorly and inhibiting the thigh from being able to touch the table.

-Muscle/Limitation
Back and sacrum flat, back of lowered thigh does touch the table, knee dies not flex to 80 degrees.
‘Suspected muscle tightness:
The rectus femoris, which does not allow the knee to bend

A

The Thomas Test

26
Q
  • Involves multiple and simultaneous movements of the scapulothoracic and glenohumeral joints in all three planes.
  • is done in conjunction with the shoulder flexion-test and an internal-external rotation test of the humerus.
A

Apley’s scratch test

27
Q

-Movement/limitation:
The raised leg achieves >80 degrees of movement before the pelvis rotates posteriorly.
-Hamstring length:
Normal

-Movement limitation:
The raised leg achieves <80 degrees of movement before the pelvis rotates posteriorly pr there are any vislible signs of the opposite leg lifting off the mat or table.
-Hamstring lenght
Tight

A

Passive straight leg raise

28
Q
  • Client lies supine on mat, w/ flat back bent-knee position
  • Client should engage abdominal muscles to hold neutral spine w/o raising hips from mat
  • Client should raise both arms simultaneously overhead, keeping them close to head and brinfing them to floor or close as possible
  • Client should maintain extendedd elbows and neutral wrist.

Observations:

  • measure degree of movement in each direction
  • note bilateral differences.

Interpretations:
-Movement/Limitation:
Ability to flex the shoulders to 170-180 degrees (hands touching nearly touching the floor)
*good mobility

-Movement/Limitation:
Inability to flex the shoulders to 170 degrees or discrepancies between limbs
-mobility:
Potential tighnness in pectoralis major and minor, latissimus dors,i teres major, rhomboids and scapularis
* tightness in The Testament Doris I will force the lower back to arch
* tightness in the pectoralis major May tilt the scapula forward (anterior tilt) and prevent the arms from touching the floor
* tight abdominals May depress the rib cage, tilting the scapula forward (anterior tilt), and prevent the arms from touching the floor.
* thoracic kyphosis around the thoracic spine and prevent the arms from touching the floor.

A

Shoulder flexion assessment test

29
Q
  • instruct the client to lie prone, extending both legs, with arms at the sides, and resting the forehead gently on a pillow or the mat.
  • ask the client to slowly raise both arms simultaneously lifting them off the mat I’ll keep the arms close to the sides * note the arms will naturally rotate internally during this movement.
  • a small amount of extension of the thoracic spine is acceptable during the movement.
  • the client should avoid any arching in the lower back or any rotation of the torso during the movement.
  • the client should avoid any attempts to lift the chest or head off the mat during the movement.

Observations:

  • measure the degree of movement in each direction.
  • know any bilateral differences between the left and right arms in performing both movements.

General interpretations:
-Movement/ limitation:
Ability to extend the shoulders to 50 - 60 degrees off the floor
- Mobility
good
- Movement/ limitation:
Inability to extend the shoulders to 50° or discrepancies between the limbs.
- Mobility
Potential tightness in pectoralis major, abdominals, subscapularis, certain shoulder flexors (anterior deltoid), coracobrachialis, and biceps brachii
* tightness in abdominals May prevent normal extension of the thoracic spine and rib cage.
* tightness in the biceps brachii May prevent adequate shoulder extension with an extended elbow (but may permit extension with a bent elbow).

Q

Rotates the superior, posterior portion of the pelvis backward and downward, in figure 7 - 11 the water would spill out of the back of the bucket

  • would decrease lordosis in the lumbar spine
