Interventions - Shoulder Flashcards
Acute phase - irritability
High
Subacute phase - irritability
Moderate
Return to function phase - irritability
Low
Phase 1 =
acute
post op
Stability/ROM
Phase 2 =
subacute
ROM/early strengthening
Biggest area for PT
Phase 3 =
Return to function
Strength and function
Acute - characteristics
High pain (7/10) Consistent night or rest pain Pain before end range AROM less than PROM High disability
Subacute - characteristics
Moderate pain (4-6/10) Intermittent night or rest pain Pain at end range AROM about equal to PROM Moderate disability
Return to Function - Characteristics
Low pain (0-3/10) Absent night or rest pain Minimal pain with overpressure AROM = PROM Low disability
Acute phase/Phase 1 = PT
Minimize physical stress Activity modification Physical agents Medication Pain relief manual therapy Low physical stress Pt education Monitor impairments
Subacute phase/Phase 2 = PT
Mild to mod physical stress
Address impairments
Controlled physical stress via progressive manual therapy, mild stretching, motor control exercises
Basic level functional activity restoration
Return to function phase/Phase 3 = PT
Mod to high physical stress Address impairments Stretch Resisted exercise More aggressive manual therapy High demand functional activity restoration
Define controlled physical stress
You are not using it in painful ways
You are minimizing the physical stress
Expanded classification system is designed to
match rehab interventions to patient subgroups and stages to facilitate more effective care
Pathoanatomic system of diagnosis - rehab
Good for surgical decision making but nor for guiding rehab
