33
Q

types of contractures

A

dynamic - occur during movement

fixed - present at all times

34
Q

Increased stretch = ________ sarcomeres = _______ muscle atrophy = normal ROM

A

increased sarcomeres, decreased muscle atrophy

35
Q

when muscle is immobilised in a shortened position, there isa reduction in muscle fiber length due to _______ sarcomeres. This leads to _______ muscle stiffness. = _________ ROM and _________ pain.

A

decreased

increased

decreased

incresed

36
Q

Article for stretch on sarcomere tested what kind of stretch?

A

intermittent stretch

37
Q

What happened in the sarcomere article?

maintains normal DF
prevents sarcomere loss
increase in serial sarcomere of as much as 10% within 2 hours
doesnt cause as much weight loss as the other stretching times!

used for tests of perceived exertion

48
Q

Advantage of borg RPE scale?

A

given ratings grow linearly with exercise intensity, HR and VO2

49
Q

As intensity increases, HR and VO2 increase, so ratings will _________

A

increase

50
Q

Specificity

A

adaption to ex training is specific o the nature of the exercise activity and the physiologic systems that are stressed

51
Q

Specificity article research paper explained

A

Hemiparetic participants of secondary stroke.
Treatment group: 12-week high intensity (70% of the 1 RM) resistance training (bilateral leg press, knee extension, ankle dorsiflexion, plantarflexion). Frequency = 3 x per week Control group: 12-week upper extremity stretching

52
Q

Results of specificity research paper

A

Significant improvement in muscle strength in the treatment group but
no change in the control group

No significant change in any functional measures in both groups

53
Q

Clinical message for specificity

A

Clinical Message (in your notes: see rectangle at the bottom of the page)

  • Training effect is specific to the exercise mode: ↑ knee extensors did not ↑ functional test results.
  • If the goal is to ↑ functions (walking, stair climbing, standing up from chair, etc.) then design functional exercises (ex: stepping up and down; walking, chair rise, etc)
54
Q

Progression

A

Progression is the requirement that exercise training progressively increases the overload stimulus to elicit continual improvements in fitness (or functional level).

EX: ↑ treadmill speed to increase cardiovascular capacity in participants with MS

55
Q

Progression may not always be achieved with the following disorders/conditions:

A
  1. progressive disorders (ex ALS MS MD)
  2. abnormal fatigue (chronic fatigue syndrome)
  3. chronic pain syndromes (fibromyalgia)
  4. conditions involving flare up
    (ex: Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, Multiple Sclerosis, etc.)
    5. Others? (Chronic conditions)
56
Q

Goal for chronic disease and disability participants

A

maintain

to avoid functional decline

57
Q

Consistency

A

the principle of consistency states that training must occur on a continual and regular basis to produce or maintain training adaptations

58
Q

With aerobic training, detraining occurs with more than ___ days of rest between exercise sessions.

A

3

59
Q

potential barriers to exercise for those who are impaired or disabled

A
transport
flare ups (increased pain and fatigue, decreased function)
depression
busy schedule
lack of time
60
Q

objective for waterbased execises on healthy older women p.263

A

to evaluate effects of short term ex detraining on the FUNCTIONAL FITNESS of older women after a 12 week water based exercise WE program

61
Q

method for waterbased execises on healthy older women p.263

A

12 weeks of trainin after 4 and weeks of detraining

62
Q

results for waterbased execises on healthy older women p.263

A

no changes found in control
inproved aerobic capacity, neuromuscular fitness and Q of L for the ones who did. Ater 6 weeks of detraining, upper, low body strength, agility, flexibility, body balance returned to UN levels.

63
Q

What is fitness testing for?

A

Fitnesstestingshouldbeconductedtoestablishbaselinelevelsinallparameters of fitness before setting program goals

64
Q

When testing for muscular fitness with conditions that have asymmetrical effects (ex: stroke TBI MS SCI) be sure to….

A

conduct tests on both sides of body

65
Q

what will fitness tsting help you with?

A

The testing will not only highlight needs for equipment modifications, but also direct your choice of exercise (ex: arm vs. leg muscles) and conditioning
variables (ex: strength, endurance, flexibility etc.)… It depends on where improvements are needed (ex: what you found in your SFT testing)

66
Q

fitness tesing:

1-Motor control or coordination:

A

identify the extent and nature of any impairment (e.g., paralysis, spasticity, athetosis, restriction in joint mvt due to pain or swelling, etc.).

identify initial levels of spasticity + pain + restriction in joint mvt, and note if it increases or decreases with specific exercises
