Evaluation Flashcards
cause of injury or disease
etiology
mechanical description of the cause
mechanism
structural and functional chnages that result from the injury process
pathology
perceptible chnage in an athletes body or its functions that indicate injury or disease
symptom
objective, definitive and obvious indicator for a specific condition
sign
denotes the name of a specific condition
diagnosis
systematic method of diagnosing a disorder that lacks unique symptoms or signs
differential diagnosis
predicted outcome of injury
prognosis
conditions following and resulting form a disease or injury; development of an additional condition as a complication of an existing disease/injury
sequel
group of symptoms that indicate a condition or disease
syndrome
complete ROM against gravity with full resistance; normal
grade 5
complete ROM against gravity with some resistance; good
grade 4
complete ROM against gravity with no resistance; fair
grade 3
complete ROM with gravity omitted; poor
grade 2
evidence of slight contractile with no joint motion; trace
grade 1
no evidence of muscle contractility
grade 0
smell
olfactory; I
vision
optic; II
eye movement, opening of eyelid, pupil constriction, focusing
oculomotor; III
eye movement (inferior lateral)
Trochlear IV
sensation to the face, mastication
Trigeminal; V
eye movement lateral
Abducens VI
motor nerve of facial expression; taste; control of salivary glands
Facial VII
hearing and equilibrium
vestibulocochlear VIII
swallowing, speech, regulation of pulm/carido/gastro function
Vagus X
swallowing, innervations of sternocleidomastoid muscle
Accessory XI
tongue movement, speech, swallowing
Hypoglossal XII
absence of reflex
areflexia; grade 0
diminished reflex
hyporeflexia; grade 1
average reflex
grade 2
exaggerated reflex
hyperreflexia; grade 3
markedly hyperactive
often associated with clonus, but not clonus is not required for grade 4
lateral plantar surface produces extension and splaying of toes
babinskis
rub along peroneals
chaddocks
run fingernail along tibial crest
oppenhelms
quickly DF foot- will feel rhythmic “beats” in your hand
clonus
superficial reflexes;
- upper abdominal
- lower ab
- cremasteric
- plantar
- gluteal
- T7-T9
- T11-T12
- T12-L1
- S1-S2
- L4-S3
statements provided by athletes (time, mechanism, site, pain, degree of disability)
subjective
result from ATs visual inspection, palpation and assessment of AROM, PROM, RROM; Also findings of special tsts, assessment of posture
objective
Ats professional judgement with regard to impression of nature of injury
assessment
first aid treatment, intentions relative to disposition (referral, splits, wrap, crutches). Chronic- treatment/rehab
plan
