Lab: OMM Treatments Flashcards
Anterior and posterior glide of the radial head: coupled motion
Anterior: supination
Posterior: pronation
Ulnar abduction vs adduction HLVA: thrust direction
Abduction: medial to lateral thrust
Adduction: lateral to medial thrust
Anterior vs posterior radial head pt position and thrust
Anterior RH: arm flexed and pronated, hyperflexion force
Posterior RH: arm extended and supinated, hyperextension force
Posterior vs anterior fibular head HVLA position and thrust
Posterior: evert foot, dorsiflex, and externally rotate leg -> flex the knee and create anterior thrust on head
Anterior: internally rotate distal leg -> posteromedial thrust on fibular head
Dorsiflexed vs plantarflexed talotibial joint HVLA
Dorsiflexed: plantarflex ankle
Plantarflexed: dorsiflex ankle
Whcih lymphatic technique is a COPD risk?
Thoracic pump: Vacuum/atelectasis modification
Normal width of aorta + abnl
Normal: 2-3 cm
Abnl: >3 cm
Anterior vs posterior rotated innominate MET
Anterior: pt hip and knee flexed towards barrier
Posterior: pt leg extended off table
Superior vs inferior innominate shear MET **
Superior: internally rotate, slightly flex, and abduct leg to gap SI joint -> gently pull leg
Inferior: internal rotate and abduct leg -> gently push leg towards pt
Innominate inflare vs outflare MET
Inflare: knee bent, foot on other side of other knee, physician pushes knee to abduct and externally rotate hip
Outflare: knee bent, foot on other side of other knee, physician pushes knee to adduct and internally rotate hip
Superior vs inferior pubic shear MET
Superior: abduct and slightly extend leg
Inferior: significant adduction and flexion
Anterior vs posteriorly rotated innominate BLT
Anterior: pull down ipsilateral + push up contralateral leg - pt rotates contralateral
Posterior: push up ipsilateral + pull down contralateral - pt rotates to ipsilateral side
Innominate HVLA: what Side is the SD on?
Lateral recumbent with SD side up
innominate HVLA: anterior vs posterior rotated
Anterior: lateral recumbent, legs flexed, thrust by pulling PSIS inferior
Posterior: lateral recumbent, legs more extended, thrust by pulling PSIS superior/anterior towards umbilicus
Superior vs inferior innominate shear HVLA
Superior: grab ankle: internally rotated, slightly flexed leg -> thrust inferior
Inferior: lateral recumbent: legs extended, thrust PSIS superiorly
Piriformis counterstrain position
F Abd ER
Piriformis MET position
Pt supine or prone, flex pts knee and hip on side of SD, gently move knee towards midline and have pt push against hand
Gapping the anterior vs posterior SI joint - how and why
Anterior gapping: external rotation; to facilitate flexion
Posterior gapping: internal rotation; to facilitate extension
Bilaterally extended sacrum MET setup vs bilaterally flexed sacrum
Extended: prone, abduct and externally rotate legs, anterior/inferior force towards sacral base + resist inhalation
Flexed: prone, abduct leg and internally rotate, anterior/superior force on ILA region + resist exhalation
Unilaterally flexed left sacrum MET vs unilaterally extended left sacrum MET
Same as bilaterally, except you apply force on the posterior sacral base or posterior ILA instead of force being midline
Flexed sacral torsion MET (L on L or R on R) vs extended sacral torsion
Flexed: Pt lays lateral recumbent and facing table (modified sims), flex pts hips and knees and lower ankles towards floor - pt lifts feet towards ceiling
Extended: pt lays lateral recumbent and facing up, flex top knee and drop off table, extend bottom knee, gently force top knee towards floor and pt lifts knee towards ceiling
In treating sacral torsion, what side does the pt lay on?
Axis-side down
