DAY 9 Flashcards
- Patellar tracking dysfunction is a common problem especially those with active lifestyles. Dynamic
factors for patellar tracking dysfunction include ______________.
a. a lateral femoral condyle that is not sufficiency prominent anteriorly
b. shallow trochlear groove
c. vastus medialis obliquus muscle insufficiency
d. increase in the angulation between the quadriceps muscle and the patellar tendon
c. vastus medialis obliquus muscle insufficiency
Dynamic Factors: matic MUSCLES na ang gimean
Static Factors: Ligaments, tendons, bony churvalo hahaha
- A 57-year-old male patient with sciatica complains of severe lumbar pain and paresthesia extending
to the left ankle. Straight leg raising is positive in the left lower extremity. The MOST LIKELY source
of pain is ___________.
a. a lumbar disc with a posterior herniation or protrusion
b. piriformis syndrome
c. sacroiliac joint dysfunction
d. a lumbar disc is with a right posterior herniation or protrusion
a. a lumbar disc with a (LEFT *laterality) posterior herniation or protrusion
- A basketball player of a major professional league was prescribed a knee derotation brace for all his
games. The condition that would BEST benefit the use of derotation brace is _________.
a. posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
b. anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
c. medial meniscus tear
d. anterior cruciate ligament insufficiency
d. anterior cruciate ligament insufficiency
**if reconstruction na SURGERY is needed not bracing
- A PT is applying electrical stimulation to treat a patient with shoulder subluxation due to a stroke.
The electrode placement should be over the ________________.
a. posterior deltoid and teres minor
b. middle deltoid and supraspinatus
c. posterior deltoid and supraspinatus
d. serratus anterior and pectoralis major
c. posterior deltoid and supraspinatus
- A patient who sustained burns on 25 percent of his body was admitted! If patient has hypovolemia,
the laboratory value MOST affected is
a. oxygen saturation ratio
b. hemoglobin
c. prothrombin time
d. hematocrit
d. hematocrit
- The range of motion requirements for normal gait include the following, EXCEPT:
a. knee flexion: 0 - 60 degrees
b. ankle dorsiflexion: 0 - 10 degrees
c. hip extension: 0 - 30 degrees
d. hip flexion: 0 - 30 degrees
c. hip extension: 0 - 30 degrees (only 10° of hip ext is required)
- A patient with right lateral epicondylitis reports that symptoms are the same after 2 weeks of treatment.
PT evaluated the patient and found out that the left biceps reflex is 1+. The PT’s next strategy is to
conduct a complete examination of the region.
a. midcervical
b. cervico thoracic
c. upper cervical
d. cervicocranial
a. midcervical
- A patient with a spinal cord injury finds it difficult to transfer from mat to wheelchair. The patient can’t
seem to process the idea of how to coordinate this movement. In this situation the MOST effective use
of feedback during the early motor learning is to
a. focus on guided movement and proprioceptive inputs
b. concentrate on knowledge of results and visual inputs
c. give feedback only after a short (5 sec) delay
d. concentrate on knowledge of performance and proprioceptive inputs
b. concentrate on knowledge of results and visual inputs
- A patient who was in cast for 3 weeks after a grade III left ankle sprain was referred to PT for mobility
exercises. Evaluation shows a loss of 10 degrees of dorsiflexion. The MOST difficult activity for this
patient is
a. ambulating barefoot
b. ambulating over rough surfaces
c. descending a ramp
d. descending stairs
d. descending stairs
- A patient has difficulty going down ramps. His knees wobble and are unsteady. The action to take is
a. prolonged icing to reduce hamstring pain
b. progressive resistance training for the quadriceps
c. stretching thru posterior resting splint for tight plantarflexors
d. continuous passive movement machine to keep the range
b. progressive resistance training for the quadriceps
- An 82-year-old female is referred to PT for pain in the left sacroiliac joint. Initial evaluation reveals the
following: higher left ASIS than right ASIS, shorter leg length on the left side (measured in supine
position) and the left PSIS lower than the right PSIS. In what position should you place patient to
perform the correct sacroiliac mobilization of the left innominate?
a. Supine
b. Prone
c. None of these
d. Right sidelying
c. None of these
***d/t the pts AGE mobilization is not applicable since FUSED na ang SI jts
- A PT treats a 40-year-old male status post knee surgery. The PT performs goniometric measurements
to quantify the extent of the patient’s extension lag. Which of the following would NOT provide a
plausible rationale for the extension lag?
a. Muscle weakness
b. Inhibition by pain
c. Patient apprehension
d. Bony obstruction
d. Bony obstruction
***in the case of a BONY OBSTRUCTION limited BOTH ang AROM & PROM, sa Extension lag FROM = PROM while (+)LOM = AROM
- While doing postural screening for a patient referred for low back pain, PT notices that the knees are
in genu recurvatum. The possible contributory postures include _________.
a. Forefoot varus and posterior pelvic tilt
b. Ankle dorsiflexion and hip abduction
c. Lateral tibial torsion and anterior pelvic tilt
d. Ankle plantarflexion and anterior pelvic tilt
d. Ankle plantarflexion and anterior pelvic tilt
- A sports PT was conducting evaluation of female varsity volleyball players. One of them complained
of a chronic right knee pain and recurrent effusion. The PT performed an apprehension test and patient
immediately grimaced and contracted her quadriceps maximally. The PT would suspect the presence
of
a. chondromalacia patella
b. internal knee derangement
c. recurrent patellar dislocation
d. rheumatoid arthritis
c. recurrent patellar dislocation
- During 180 degrees of abduction in the scapulohumeral rhythm, there is roughly a ratio of movement
of the humerus to the scapula.
a. 2:1
b. 1:1
c. 1:3
d. 1:2
a. 2:1
