Q

Rehabilitation Plan Phase 1 (acute inflammatory stage) may last how long? What is the primary focus? What should you avoid?

A
  • up to 4 days
  • being able to control swelling and modulate pain
  • overly aggressive during first 48 hrs
22
Q

by day 3-4 of the acute inflammatory stage, what should you be working on?

A

active ROM exercises in pain-free ROM while continuing NSAIDs for swelling and inflammation

23
Q

when does a post-surgical exercise phase begin post surgery?

A

24 hours

24
Q

\rehab plan, phase 2 (fibroblastic repair), can last for up to how long? What is critical in this phase?

A

several weeks; swelling and pain control is critical

25
Q

during phase 2 (fibroblastic repair), what should be added in?

A

CV fitness, strengthening, flexibility and neuromuscular activities should be gradually added in

26
Q

Phase 3 (maturation and remodeling) may last how long? What is the ultimate goal, and what two types of training should you use to help achieve it?

A

Several years; return to activity and sport specific skills; dynamic functional and plyometric training

27
Q

______ = successful rehab

A

compliance

28
Q

7 steps to enhancing patient compliance?

A
  1. Athletic therapist’s attitude / relationship with the patient
  2. Clear instructions – verbal & written
  3. Encouragement & positive reinforcement = commitment
  4. Creativity & variation – keeps athlete interested & motivated
  5. Support from coach and peers of the rehabilitation process
  6. Fit athlete’s schedule
  7. Pain free
29

conduction
conversion
radiation

30

“Heat is transferred from one object through space to another object”

A

radiation

35
Q

Tiger balm or A535 are considered what type of modality?

A

Thermal (conversion specifically)
