Intro Flashcards
Define orthopedic manual therapy
Skilled hand movements intended to improve tissue extensibility, ROM, relaxation, mobilize or manipulate soft tissues or joints, modulate pain, reduce swelling.
Explain the ICF
International Classification of Function.
- Body Functions and Structures:
This includes the physiological functions of body systems and anatomical parts of the body. - Activities and Participation:
This refers to the execution of tasks and involvement in life situations. - Environmental Factors:
These are the physical, social, and attitudinal environments in which people live and conduct their lives. - Personal Factors:
These include the individual’s background, lifestyle, and personal characteristics.
Given that a resistive isometric test is strong and painless, what 4 options would you expect you might see?
- No lesion
- Lesion not involving contractile structure
- lesion not involving MSK system
- referred pain
Given that a resistive isometric test is strong and painful, what would you expect is the cause?
Minimal/minor damage to tendon or muscle (Grade 1).
Given that a resistive isometric test is weak and painful, what would you expect is the cause?
Partial to full tear (Grade 2)
Given that a resistive isometric test is weak and painless, what would you expect is the cause?
Complete tear and/or entrapment of nerve (Grade 3)
Historical perspective:
- Resisted testing
- Contractile vs non-contractile
- Active vs passive movement
- Assessment criteria
James Cyriax
Historical perspective:
- Joint play changes may lead to dysfunction
- Mobilization restores joint play
Mennel
Historical perspective:
- Convex-concave rule
- Close packed and loose packed positions
- Open pack in midrange
- 5x5 scheme (more holistic approach)
Kaltenborn
Historical perspective:
- SINS(s)
- severity
- irritability
- nature
- stage
- (stability)
- Comparable sign (THE pain)
Maitland
Historical perspective:
- 3 diagnostic categories
- posture
- dysfunction (loss of joint play)
- derangement (disc involvement)
- Peripheralization (increasing symptoms)
- Centralization (decreasing symptoms)
McKenzie
Physiologic movements are movements done ________.
Voluntarily
Accessory movements are movements within ___________ and _________that are NECESSARY/UNNECESSARY for normal ROM, but cannot be voluntarily performed.
Within the joint and surrounding tissues; Necessary
Accessory movements that can be passively produced at a joint but cannot be isolated actively.
Joint play
Joint play performed parallel to the treatment plane
