What is the only Diversified where we need to reach across the patient for our SCP
Diversified Pisiform

C7-T3
What is the SCP for the Diversified Pisiform?
Spinous
T or F
Modified Diversified Pisiform is performed from C6-T4
False
C7-T4
What is the SCP for Modified Diversified Pisiform?
TP or Lamina
What is the SCP for the Modified Thumb?
Lateral side of spinous
Describe the changes that occur in terms of load and force distribution that contribute and can lead to disc herniation
The nucleus loses its ability to cushion the load placed upon it. Forces are than transmitted unequally to the annulus fibres that are not designed to withstand such forces and they can tear.
What is the approximate time frame required for lateral disc herniation to heal compared to a medial.
Lateral = 2 weeks of healing Medial = 4 weeks
T or F

False
Adjust the disc below
T or F
In acute low back management a general rule is to adjust in side posture with the sciatic side down
True
Do you pump the disc above, at or below the swollen disc?
Pump the swollen disc and adjust the disc below.
What is the most common disc level for a spondylolisthesis
L5
T or F
A spondylolisthesis will give a person a hypolordosis
False
Hyperlordosis
T or F
In acute low back management it is important to pump the disc before icing.
False
Ice than pump
What is the rule for adjusting the sacrum and not the ilium
If the ilium listing is AS, IN or ASIN on the side of the rotated sacrum- and sacrum is rotated 6 mm or more adjust the sacrum.
T or F
If the ilium listing is ASEX with the AS predominant on the side of the rotated sacrum adjust the sacrum
True
T or F
If the Ilium listing is PIIN with the PI predominate on the side of the rotated sacrum adjust the sacrum
False
If the ilium listing is PIIN with the IN predominate on the side of the rotated sacrum adjust the sacrum.
Define what an Absolute Contraindication means
A condition where a high velocity adjusting would never be allowed for the safety of the patient.
T or F
Hyper mobility is a relative contraindication to a HVLF
False
Absolute
T or F
Acute fractures and dislocations; or healed fractures with signs of ligamentous rupture or instability are safe to adjust
False
These conditions are articular derangements and are unstable.
Bone weakening and destructive disorders fall under what category of contraindications?
