Cemented joint replacements
WBAT
26
Non-cemented joint replacements
NWB/TTWB
27
Early post-op healing for joint replacements
ROM, joint protection, function w/ assisted device
28
Late healing for joint replacement
ROM, strength, Increase function
29
Protocols & joint replacements
-must be strictly adhered to when provided
30
dysfunction
loss of normal function of a tissue/region
31
joint dysfunction
loss of normal joint mobility
32
contractures
adaptive shortening fo skin, fascia, muscle etc
33
adhesions
abnormal collagen fibers to surrounding structure
34
reflex muscle guarding
prolonged contraction of a muscle in response to a painful stimuli
35
Intrinsic Muscle spasm
prolonged contractions of a muscle in response to local circulatory or metabolic changes when the muscle is in a state of prolonged contraction
36
Conditions resulting in soft tissue pathology
- muscle weakness | - compartment syndromes; increased interstital pressure in a closed myofascial compartment
37
Grade 1 tear
- few fibers - mild pain - minimal; no swelling - local tenderness - pain with stress; no laxity - no/minor functional loss
38
grade II tear
- approx 1/2 of the fibers - (+) swelling - moderate pain with stress/palpation - moderate-major functional loss
39
Grade III tear
- all fibers - severe pain (++) swelling - local tenderness - no pain with stress - joint instability ? - moderate-major functional loss
40
Non-contractile tissue injuries
1. sprains (ligaments) (grade I, II, III) 2. Capsules (hyper vs. hypo) 3. internal derangement 4. loose bodies 5. articular cartilage 6. nerve lesions
41
Contractile tissue injuries
1. strains 2. contusion 3. tendiopathy
42
Contusions first degree
- microscopic deformation of tissue - mild-moderaate inflammatory response - minimal discomfort - mild-moderate disability - no palpable defect
43
2nd degree contusion
- more painful - significant inflammatory response - may limit extreme ROM and strength - moderate deformation of tissu e - palpable defect on exam
44
3rd degree contusion
- maximal tissue deformation - significant inflammatory response - more pain - more swelling - more bleeding - interventions: based on the stage of the injury
45
Contusion contraindications/precautions
Acutely: no heat/thermal use | limit stress placed on tissue early in healing; dont want to increase bleeding
46
myositis ossifications
calcification within the muscle (quad femoris, bicep brachii, hamstrings)
47
Strain within the muscle itself grade 1
strong, some pain
48
strain within the muscle itself grade 2
weak, and painful
49
strain within the muscle itself grade III
weak and painless
50
tendinopathy
activity limiting condition typically characterized by thickening/swelling, localized tendon pain and loss of function
51
tenosynovitis
acute or chronic inflammation or fibrosis of the synovial sheath around the tendon
52
enthesopathy/enthesitis
injuries/irritation of the enthesisis
53
primary tendinopathy
no predisposing medical condition or event to blame for the occurence of tendon pathology (+) mechanical factors or advancing age
54
Secondary tendinopathy
distinctly related to another medical conditon or event
55
Primary tendinopathy acute traumatic
- triggered by an inciting event (contusion, surgical procedure) - typical soft tissue stages of inflammation and repair - abundant type III collagen - hypervascularity - may be fibrosis and adhesions between tendon and surrounding sheath/bursa - increased cross-sectional area of tendion
56
Primary tendinopathy acute overuse
- associated with history of repetitive or altered loading - preceding period of cumulative damage to tendon that was asymptomatic - < 4 weeks: indications of active inflammation/repair
57
Primary tendionopathy chronic
- failed healing model - healthy tendon: able to adapt to loads within the load capacity - with aging or sedentary behavior, load capacity and adaptive responses decline - risk factors: diabetes, high cholestor, family history - when cumulative load exceeds ability to adapt injury becomes accumulate - decreases load capacity
58
Tendon stress strain curve | control vs tendinopathy
areas with microstructural disturbances experienced higher localized strains during loading
59
primary tendinopathy chronic (2)
- proliferation of sensory nn and blood vessels - disorganized collagen; higher type III and GAG - thickening of the tendon - chronic inflammation-repair features; fibrin, fibroblasts, mast cells - calcification present on imaging - absence of neutrophils
60
Tendinopathic tissue
- hypercellular and hypervascular - increaed sensory innervation - higher water/GAG content - smaller, disorganized, collagen fibers - thickening of tendon
61
primary tendinopathy history
- recent change in loading - pain during/after tendon loading activity - pain in the tendon (can also be general) - gradual onset - longstanding complaints - thickening and tender when palpating - decreased ROM/flexibility - decreased strength - pain with loading acitivites - movement dysfunction
62
Patient Education (tendinopathy)
-nature of condition and likely cause -how to mitigate symptoms competitive athletes: typically need to stop activity -recreational activities: equal success rates with/without stopping activity NOT a straightforward answer -pain monitoring approach: 5/10 pain is OK - anything more; stop
63
tendinopathy resistance training
- strength, power, endurance deficits in tendinopathy are well documented - resistance exercise improves the rate of clinical improvement in tendinopathy - eccentric exercise; not a stand-alone Rx - can result in muscle lengthening (add sarcomeres) - in theory, this can reduce strain through the tendon
64
Resistance training analgesic effect
small reproduction in pain following resistance training | NOT dependent on the type of muscle contraction
65
Tendinopathy stretching
include if ROM/length deficits are present | -sport specific dynamic stretching before activity recommended during the return to sport phase
66
Neuromuscular training tendinopathy
- focus initially on quality and control of motion - patient education/coaching - manual cueing - self-monitoring - integrate entire kinetic chain - later increase load and integrate functional activites
67
Other interventions for tendinopathy
``` manual therapy dry needling taping/bracing -reduce pain during work/spirt -improve patient confidence -improve propioception -improve muscle strength and endurance ```
