quick movement that exceeds resistance (picking up all the slack)

High Velocity Low Amplitude Thrust into tissue resistance

21
Q

first tissue resistance
second tissue resistance

A

btw grade 1 and 2
btw grade 4 and 5

22
Q

ALWAYS reassess ____ , _____ and _____ after joint treatments (grades)

A

symptoms
ROM
mobility

23
Q

during talocrual distraction manipulation, bring the foo into ____ amount DF and take up slack to 2nd tissue resistance

A

neutral (zero degrees)

24
Q

muscle energy technique: alternating add/abd isometric holds for:

A

pelvic/SIJ Dysfunction (anterior pain)

PT provides the resistance: “squeeze into my hands for about 3-5 seconds then relax” and repeat with abduction: “push your knees out”

25
Q

____ ____ _____ prior to joint play

A

take up slack

26
Q

mobilizing arm should be ____ w/ direction (line) of force

A

parallel

27
Q

determine appropriate grade based on

A

stage of condition
type of impairment
irritability of sx

28
Q

what are the 3 items to assess at baseline and after every treatment?

A

S&S and pain
ROM and strength
concordant signs

29
Q

INDICATIONS for manual therapy

A

mild MSK pain
low irritability MSK (worse with motion, better with rest)
relieved or provoked with certain motion
pain related to changes in sitting or standing posture

30
Q

CONTRAINDICATIONS for manual therapy

A

infection (i.e. osteomyelitis)
febrile state
circulation issues
malignancy
open wound
recent fracture
hematoma
DM
hypersensitive skin
inappropriate end feel (hypermobile or ankylosing)
RA during exacerbation
cellulitis

Dizzy
steroid or anti-coagulant therapy

33
Q

test designed to assess the contribution of spinal nerve roots and peripheral nerves to extremity pain… employ a sequential and progressive stretch to the dura… place tensile stresses on dura of spinal roots and peripheral nerves until pt symptoms are reproduced…. anatomic knowledge is imperative for the proper assessment of adverse neural tension

A

nerve tissue provocation (tension) tests

34
Q

3 signs of a POSITIVE NTPT

A
  1. reproduce pt’s symptoms (concordant pain)
  2. test responses altered by movement of distant body parts that would not be attributable to any other tissue except neural tissue (i.e. sensitization)
  3. test differences from L side to R side or from normal (i.e. differences in pain, ROM)
35
Q

research suggests that a relationship may exist b/t repetitive ______ strains and adverse neural tension of the sciatic nerve (i.e. + slump)

A

hamstring

36
Q

simulates extremes of spinal motion associated w/ symptoms as slouched sitting or entering/exiting a car

A

slump test

37
Q

which test is recognized as 1st NTPT and assess neural tension in sciatic nerve distribution?

A

SLR

38
Q

SLR sensitizers

Tibial
Sural
Common Fib

A

tibial: DF, eversion, toe extension

sural nerve: DF, inversion

common fib: PF, inversion

39
Q

load opposite ends of a nerve in oscillatory fashion (on/off very quick)

A

tension

40
Q

load 1 end of a nerve while relieving stress on the opposite end, repeat in oscillatory fashion

A

gliding

41
Q

load nerve system and sustain for a predetermined period of time (7-30 sec)

A

stretching

42
Q

INDICATIONS for neurodynamic mobilization

A

neuro sx (pain, spasm, paresthesias)
antalgic postures
active of passive movement dysfunction
TTP superficial neural tissue

43
Q

CONTRAINDICATONS for neurodynamic mobilization

A

recent repaired peripheral nerve
malignancy
active inflammatory condition (RA)
acute inflammatory demyelinating disease (MS)

44
Q

PRECAUTIONS FOR NEURODYNAMIC MOBS

A

irritable
SC signs
nerve root signs
severe unremitting night pain (w/ no dx)
recent paresthesia/anesthesia
mechanical spine w/ peripheralization of sx

45
Q

treat this before moving onto adverse neural tension…

remembering that neural glides are a part of the tx not the tx itself.

A

treat pain and mobility deficits first before adverse nerual tension

Q

remember that neural tissue is _____. avoid overstressing bc it can lead to significant increase in sx

oversensitive
