Q

What are abduction and adduction?

A

With abduction, limbs (arms, legs or fingers) are moved away from your body’s midline. Adduction, however, refers to moving your limbs closer to the midline.

Q

What are dorsiflexion and plantarflexion?

A

Flex your right foot back, pushing your heel forward and pulling your toes toward you. This is dorsiflexion. Hold for 5 seconds. Then move your foot in the opposite direction, pointing your foot and toes away from you. This is plantarflexion.

Q

What are inversion and eversion?

A

Eversion of the Ankle: Tilting of the sole of the foot outwards to face laterally.
This looks like you are pushing your big toes into the ground and lifting the little toe up.

Q

41
Q

What are protraction and retraction of jaw and shoulder blades?

A

Plus, retraction of shoulder blades is bringing your shoulder blades together. Protraction is reaching them forward.

42
Q

What is opposition?

A

Opposition is a small hand movement consisting of the thumb touching the tips of the other digits.

43
Q

Muscle strength should be equal and what?

A

Bilateral

44
Q

Muscle strength should be equal bilaterally and should what?

A

45
Q

What is muscle atrophy?

A

46
Q

What is muscle hypertrophy?

Q

What is pseudohypertrophy?

A

48
Q

Why is muscle tone important?

A

To protect joints from hyperextending; in infant with decreased muscle tone, limbs hang, muscles don’t protect joints from overextending.

Q

What are the following?
Paresis
Plegia
Hemiparesis
Paraplegia
