Q

Cortical Bone- X-ray Images

Treatments (Cortical Screws)

A

X-ray shows more dense white–> representing thicker bone

Orthopaedic surgeons try to anchor screws to cortical bone (cortical screws). Goes through both side of hard bone.

When bone is broken and treated with rod implant –> bone is weight bearing!

Q

Medullary Canal

A
  • Manufacturing of RBCs in children, contains yellow fatty marrow in adults.
  • Ream out and place metal rods for fixation of fxs & amp; joint replacement stems
  • X-ray examples: femur fx, tibia fx, Total Hip Replac, THA w/ fx from inserting stem

Q

Periosteum

A

Fibrous membranes that cover bones, (pain) nerves, and blood vessels pass thru.

  • Contains pain nerves so trauma to bone is very painful.
  • This is what you palpate (tibia, elbow, skull, malleoli)
  • Fx through periosteum very painful. Thicker in children, so fractures are sometimes less serious than adults.

Q

Cancellous (spongy) Bone; % skeleton; Structure

A

20% of skeleton
Lamallae deposited in parallel (vs concentric rings)–> called Trabeculae- irregular arranged w/ lattice work or woven mesh.
Bone marrow contained between layers of mesh. Thin layers, but show layers of bone stress (hip x-ray)

11
Q

Where is cancellous bone located and what areas have the highest density.

A

Found @ end of long bones, near joint.
Highest Density: Proximal femur, distal radius, vertebral body.

These are often the sites of osteoporosis fracture

Q

Cancellous bone fractures

A

Bone becomes compacted w/ fxs and can be more difficult to manage.
Impaction or compression fxs.
X-ray examples: tibial plateau fx, femoral neck fx, thoracic vertebrae compression fx, humeral head dislocation

13
Q

Compression Fractures

A

Cancellous bone is susceptible to these. (Rather than snapping fractures)

  • WAY more difficult to manage
  • long time b4 weight bearing

Q

Use of Medullary Canal for treating fractures

A
  • Ream out and place metal rods for fixation of fxs & joint replacement stems
  • Old method of fx management: traction & bedrest for 3mo.
  • New method: rod fixation and discharge in 2-3 days.

Q

Bone Parts

A
  1. Diaphysis
  2. Epiphysis
  3. Epiphyseal Plate
17
Q

Diaphysis

A

Long axis of bone. Compact bone surrounding medullary canal.
In adults, canal contains marrow and yellow fat which can break off and enter the veins in the form of globules.
–> which lodges in arteries of lung forming a pulmonary emboli (fat vs blood clot)

18
Q

Epiphysis

A
  • bone ends. Thin layer of compact bone surrounding interior of spongy bone.
19
Q

Epiphyseal Plate

A

Growth plate.

AKA Salter-Harris plate

20
Q

Bone Growth

A

Diaphysis= primary development growth

Epiphyseal plate= secondary growth centers that fuse @ end of puberty and represents end of growing

21
Q

Epiphyseal Plate fractures vs. non-fracture

A

X-ray of open epiphysis can be mistaken for fractures

Salter-Harris fracture- through growth plate must be managed properly or it will stunt growth of that bone

22
Q

Articular Cartilage

And what disease involves this cartilage?

A

Cushions bone ends and absorbs stress @ joints.

Degenerative joint disease (DJD) is wearing away of cartilage.

23
Q

What is a PTA

A

Physical THERAPIST assistant

24
Q

Components of preferred PT-PTA team that promote efficient, high faulty patient/cline care.

A
  1. Pt needs suppressed team needs
  2. Ea. professional being knowledgeable of rules that apply to one’s own role and the other’s role within the team.
  3. Ability to recognize when the team isn’t working.
  4. Acknowledging tendencies, preferences and pet peeves.
25
Q

PT/ PTA Relationship

Roles

A

-PT directs PTA to perform selected interventions
-PT provides ongoing supervision as needed and mandated by law
-PTA performs tasks w/ patient
PTA documents performance/ response
PT- retains ultimate responsibility
Both responsible for following state and APTA regulations

26
Q

What should be considered when determine PT/PTA involvement?

A
  1. Predictability of consequences
  2. Stability of situation
  3. Observability of basic indicators
  4. Ambiguity of basic indicators
  5. Criticality of results
  6. Purpose of dimension
    Instrumental or Expressive functions of tasks?
  7. Locale dimension
27
Q

Explain the purpose of the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice

A
  • It describes the PT practice (who PTs are and what their role is in healthcare)
  • Explains the settings in which we work
  • Standardizes Terminology
  • It reviews our education
28
Q

Define the primary components of the ICF Model

A

“Health Condition” (Disorder/Disease/Pathology/Condition)
Diabetes, pregnancy, fracture, etc.

“Functioning and Disability”
Body Functions and Structures Impairments
Activities Limitations
Participation Restrictions

“Contextual Factors”
Personal Factors
Environmental Factors

29
Q

Global purpose(s) for using ICF model terminology in PT practice?

A

It standardizes the terminology that we use so that it is clear and understandable across disciplines.

30
Q

Elements of the Patient/Client Management Model

A

PT Examination- Pt history, previous notes, gather data via pt interview/tests
Evaluation- analyze data
PT diagnosis- impairments, activity limitations
Prognosis/ Plan of Care- identify patient’s potential goals
Intervention-
Outcomes- Results/ Discharge patient

31
Q

Data to be gathered during a Patient History

A
Activities and Participation
Current Condition(s)
Family Hx
General Demographics
General Health Status
Growth and Development
Living Environment
Medical/Surgical Hx
