Environment
Personal Factors
Motion
Force
Motor Control
Energy

Question 3

S - Symptom provocation

Question 4

Review of Systems (ROS)

Answer 4

Brief way to examine the body systems to identify underlying problems

Cardiovascular/pulmonary, musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, integumentary, cognition/communication

Question 5

Pulse

Answer 5

The blood in the artery created by contraction of the left ventricle during a cardiac cycle

Question 6

Parameters of Pulse

Answer 6

Rate - # of pulsations per minute

Rhythm - pattern of pulsations, important for determining health

Quality - the force created by ejected blood against the arterial wall

Question 7

Pulse oximetry

Answer 7

Measures arterial blood oxygenation, updated with each pulse wave

Question 8

What PulseOx value would suggest supplemental oxygen might be needed?

Answer 8

Below 90% saturation

Question 9

3 things that can influence pulse

Answer 9

Age- HR generally decreases and stabilizes with age

Sex- males tend to have slightly lower HR than females

Medications - some can affect HR (EX: beta blockers lower HR)

Question 10

3 things that can influence pulse oximetry

Answer 10

Alterations in heart function - can reduce cardiac output and oxygenation

Nail polish - can interfere with measurement

Artificial acrylic nails - can interfere with measurement

Question 11

Parameters of Respiration

Answer 11

Rate, depth, rhythm, sound

Question 12

What do blood pressure numbers represent?

Answer 12

Top = systolic
bottom = diastolic

Question 13

Systolic blood pressure

Answer 13

measures the force of blood against artery walls while ventricles squeeze, pushing blood out to the rest of the body

top number

Question 14

Diastolic blood pressure

Answer 14

measures the force of blood against artery walls as heart relaxes and the ventricles are allowed to refill with blood

bottom number

Question 15

3 things that can influence blood pressure

Answer 15

Blood volume - less blood leads to less pressure, and vice versa

Age - varies, rises after birth, peaks in puberty, levels to adult BP

Exercise - increases cardiac output which increases BP

Question 16

Prehypertension ranges

Answer 16

120-139 / 80-89

Question 17

Stage 1 hypertension ranges

Answer 17

140-159 / 90-99

Question 18

Stage 2 hypertension ranges

Answer 18

160+ / 100+

Question 19

Common places to assess pulse

Answer 19

Radial - on wrist, slightly lateral

Brachial - above inner elbow crook, slightly medial

Carotid - on neck, under the back corner of your jawline

Question 20

Places where simple squamous epithelium is found

Answer 20

Alveoli, capillaries

Question 21

Why type of epithelial tissues lines the lumen

Answer 21

Pseudostratified columnar

Question 22

Where is pseudostratified columnar epithelium found

Answer 22

Trachea, respiratory tract

Question 23

Disorders of Healing

Answer 23

2 disorders of CT fibers within the skin;

1) hypertrophic scar
2) keloid scar formation

Question 24

Hypertrophic scar (HTS)

Answer 24

more common at younger ages (10-30s)

can happen anywhere on body

associated with excessive tension and response to infection in the wound

Question 25

Keloid scar formation

Answer 25

more common in non-Caucasian skin

more common in head and neck/chest area

associated with excessive tension and response to infection in the wound

Question 26

Assistive device stability

Answer 26

(Least → Most Stability)

Cane
Crutches
Walker

Question 27

When to use cane

Answer 27

minor problems with balance/stability

some weakness in trunk/legs

assisting elderly while having independence

Question 28

When to use crutches

Answer 28

may be used if you can’t put any weight on your leg/foot

Question 29

When to use walker

Answer 29

significant problems with balance/stability

total knee or hip replacement

need to transfer some weight off of lower extremities

Question 30

Fitting for crutches

Answer 30

Match roughly to patient height

Adjust handles to get their arms to about 20 degrees of flexion

Question 31

How to walk with a cane

Answer 31

progress with the contralateral foot because it provides a larger base of support and provides a more normal gait pattern because of arm swing

Question 32

How to walk with crutches - 2 crutches, 1 affected leg

Answer 32

progress with crutches, swing legs forward just past crutches to provide larger base of support

Question 33

How to walk with crutches - 2 crutches, 2 affected legs

Answer 33

4 point crutch gait, each progressed separately before contralateral foot (EX: right crutch, left leg, left crutch, right leg)

Question 34

Metacarpophalangeal (MP) joint traction

joint integrity

Answer 34

stabilize the metacarpal bone with one hand, apply traction to the phalange with the the other hand

can be done with all MP joints

Question 35

Radiocarpal (wrist) Distraction

joint integrity

Answer 35

stabilize the radius and ulna at the elbow with one hand, grasp the wrist and hand just distal to the wrist crease

longitudinal traction force applied with the distal hand

Question 36
