Q

Joint malposition

A

misalignment of the skeletal components, leading to movements limitations, inflammatory changes, irritations which can ultimately lead to firing of nociceptors

23
Q

Gillet model

A

Muscular- hypertonicity and contraction
Ligamentous - contractor decreased length of Jt. capsule
Articular - fibrous interarticular adhesions

24
Q

which out of the 3 phases of Gillets involves all motions?

A

articular

25
Q

how would the end feel be if you are palpating for a muscular hypertonicity, ligamentous, or articular adhesions?

A

restricted end play

26
Q

which model is responsible for stating that articular fixations are the most significant?

A

Gillet

27
Q

What is the principle of Kirkaldy &Willis

A

Founded on the principle that spinal degeneration often begins with local mechanical derangement in the absence of structural alteration (congenital anomilies)

28
Q

the ivf encroachment theory?

A

vertebral subluxation compresses a nerve, this was introduced by DD and BJ palmer

29
Q

Nerve root compression was suggested by who and what does is state?

A

clelin- he stated that it was unlikely that nerve compression would be caused by a subluxation if there was no degenerative disease present

30
Q

What did Giles conclude about the Nerve roots exiting the IVF in the lumbar?

A

that they lack epineural coverings which made them more susceptible to pressure and inflammation

31
Q

the first motion evaluated by the Dr.?

A

joint play

32
Q

what joint play

A

it is a component of active and passive jt. motion.

It represents the give and flexibility of the jt.

33
Q

Is active motion produced by the patient or the practitioner?

A

by the patient

34
Q

during Passive ROM what happens?

A

the Dr. moves the joint in a greater degree as it encounters End play zone (EPZ)

35
Q

Elastic barrier represents what?

A

movement of the jt. past the elastic limits and further movement is only possible through the separation of joint surface

36
Q

after cavitation what space is encountered?

A

paraphysiological space

37
Q

if you go past the limits of the paraphysiological space

what will occur?

A

injury

38
Q

end play (EP)

A

qualitative assessment of resistant at the end of passive joint movements

39
Q

Joint play (JP)

A

assessment of resistance from a neutral position or loose packed position

40
Q

Is EP at the end of JP?

A

yes

41
Q

How is JP assessed?

A

inducing gentle shallow springing movements

42
Q

Quantitative

A

how much the jt. moves

43
Q

how can you measure the quantitative motion of the jt.?

A

visual, instrument, patient feedback

44
Q

qualitative is referring too?

A

how the joint moves by visual and patient feedback

45
Q

Accessory movement?

A

they cannot be preformed by the individual

46
Q

accessory movements refer too what kinds of movements?

A

roll
spin
glide

47
Q

capsular end feel

A

firm but giving, like leather

48
Q

Ligamentous end feel

A

similar to capsular but firmer quality like a knee extension

49
Q

soft tissue end feel

A

giving, squeezing quality, approximation of soft tissue normal - is the elbow flexion

50
Q

abnormal soft tissue end feel

A

muscle hypertrophy

51
Q

Bony end feel

A

hard and non-giving abrupt stop

52
Q

normal bony end feel

A

elbow extension

53
Q

muscular end feel:

A

firm and giving and builds with elongation, not stiff as capsular or ligamentous normal - hip flexion

54
Q

Muscle spasm

A

guarded, resisted by muscle contraction, muscle reaction should be felt, end feel cannot be assessed because of pain or guarding

55
Q

Interarticular end feel

A

bouncy springy quality

abnormal - torn meniscus or joint mice

56
Q

Empty end feel

A

normal end feel resistance is missing, end feel is not encountered at normal point of joint demonstrates unusual give and deformation

57
Q

abnormal end feel

A

joint injury or disease leading to hypermobility
