Q

What are the two types of end feel?

A

Normal and abnormal

26
Q

What are the three types of normal end feel? Describe.

A

Hard: bone impact against bone, elbow

Soft: soft tissue approximation , forearm meets biceps

Firm: firm but slightly yielding stop from stretch of capsules, ligaments, other connective tissues
Capsular: slack in joint capsule is taken up
Elastic: musculotendinous slack is taken up and rebound is felt

27
Q

What is the type of abnormal end feel? Describe.

A

Empty: nothing stopping motion physically, just pain

Wrong time or quality

Ex: firm end feel in elbow when it should be hard

28
Q

What is a close packed joint position? Describe its characteristics.

A

Joint surfaces with max congruency, ligaments and capsules are taught

Best stability, resistant to distraction forces, limited accessory motion (no joint mobs)

Ex: knee in full extension

29
Q

What is an open packed joint position? What is another name for it? Describe characteristics.

A

Joint surfaces with most freedoms of movement, ligaments and capsules slackened

Aka loose or resting position

Increased translatoric movement, less compressive forces within joint, max movement of synovial fluid
Least tension on support structure

30
Q

What is arthrokinematics? Types? How does it occur?

A

Motions between Articular surfaces

Roll, glide, spin

Involuntary, occur due to muscle contraction, restored with joint mobs

31
Q

Describe roll in terms of arthrokinematics.

A

New equidistant points come into contact with new equidistant points of other surface

Ex: tires on pavement

32
Q

Describe glide in terms of arthrokinematics.

A

Same point contacts new points on other surface

Ex: like sliding on ice

33
Q

Describe spin in terms of arthrokinematics.

A

Single points rotating on a single point of the other surface

Ex: spinning a coin

34
Q

What is the concave / convex arthrokinematic rule?

A

When concave moves on a fixed convex surface, roll and glide in SAME direction

When convex moves on fixed concave surface, roll and slide are OPPOSITE directions

35
Q

Describe these terms:

Distraction
Approximation

A

Distraction: joint surface separation (traction)

Approximation: joint surface compression (test pain)

36
Q

What is kinetics? Describe the idea of internal and external forces.

A

Movement with regard to forces

Int: self contraction
Ext: outside force

37
Q

Name the types of forces possible on musculoskeletal tissue.

A

Tension
Shear
Bend
Compression
Torsion
Combined loading

38
Q

Describe the areas of the stress strain curve, including which is optimal

A

A: slight stretch and minimal tension

B: elastic zone, linear relationship

C: OPTIMAL, plastic zone: minimal increase in tension, micro failure and permanent tissue deformation

D: initial failure

E: complete failure

39
Q

Define the following terms:

Viscoelastic
Creep
Stress relaxation

A

Viscoelastic: stress strain tissues affected by time

Creep: progressive strain with constant load over time, increases with an increase in temperature

Stress relaxation: decrease in stress over time after sudden strain that is maintained

40
Q

Name and describe the types of muscle activation.

A

Concentric: muscle shortens, attachments move closer, move against gravity, acceleration motion

Eccentric: muscle elongates, attachments move farther, move with gravity, deceleration motion

Isometric: muscle maintains constant length

41
Q

Describe the following muscle terms:

Agonist
Antagonist
Co-contraction
Synergist
Force-couple

A

Agonist: Muscle responsible for the motion

Antagonist: doing opposite of agonist

Co-contraction: simultaneous agonist and antagonist contraction

Synergist: muscles work together to produce motion

Force-couple: 2 muscles creating forces in two different linear directions with torques in the same rotational direction
Ex: ppt, glutes and abs

42
Q

Describe active and passive tension.

A

Active tension: active contraction
Increase by: increase number of motor units, motor units with more muscle fibers, inc. cross bridge formation, muscles with larger cross section; volitional

Passive tension: resistance from connective tissues with stretch; non volitional

43
Q

When does a muscle have maximal formed crossbridges and tensions?

A

Midpoint

Full contraction or lengthened, tension decreases

44
Q

Describe tenodesis

A

Tendon action of a muscle

Ex: flex wrist, fingers will extend

45
Q

Describe passive insufficiency.

A

Muscle crosses multiple joints, length my not allow full ROM, occurs in antagonist

MUST CROSS 2+ JOINTS

46
Q

Describe active insufficiency?

A

Decreased ability to produce or maintain tension, occurs in agonist

When muscle has been excessively shortened or elongated to no cross bridge formation

Occur in 1+ muscle

Involves contraction - cannot go any more

47
Q

Describe mechanical advantage.

A

Ratio of internal movement arm to external movement arm

> 1 = good MA
< 1 = poor MA

51
Q

What is Articular cartilage made of? Does it contain nerves and vessels? What is its purpose?

A

Specialized hyaline cartilage, with type II cartilage

No nerves or vessels, is nourished by diffusion of synovial fluid

Covers weight bearing surfaces, shock absorber, friction reduction

52
Q

What fibers are in fibrocartilage? What does it do?

A

Type I collagen, more stable

Forms IV discs, labrum, menisci, support and stabilize joints, dissipate compressive forces

A

Dense irregular connective tissue with low elastin fibers

A

Type II collagen and elastin

Q

What is the labrum made of? What is its purpose?

A
