Abnormal temporal characteristics

29
Q

Limitation of PROM could mean

A

Passive Insufficiency
Intrarticular Obstruction
Muscle Guarding or Splinting

30
Q

Capsular Pattern

A

Pattern of presentation of a capsular obstruction

AROM/PROM

31
Q

If Pain w/ ROM

A

Compressive Load Intolerance?

Tensile Load Intolerance?

32
Q

AROM is full & pain free

A

May often choose not to perform PROM

33
Q

AROM<PROM

A

Difference may be active muscle dysfunction; tensile load intolerance; patient reluctance

34
Q

AROM limitation = PROM limitation

A

Passive insufficiency
Obstruction
Guarding

35
Q

If AROM > PROM

A

Patient is stopping you

36
Q

Strength

A

More reps

37
Q

Power

A

1 RM

38
Q

Endurance

A

Length of time you can perform

39
Q

Concentric Contraction

A

Shortening of the muscle

40
Q

Eccentric Contraction

A

Controlled Lengthening

41
Q

Isometric Contraction

A

No motion, but the muscle is still contracting

42
Q

Cyriax Classifications of Resisted Isometric Tests

A

Strong/Painful
Weak/Painful
Strong/Painless
Weak/Painless

43
Q

Break Testing

A

Assesses integrity of nerve roots, not strength

44
Q

Isometric Testing Procedure

A

Test position is a neutral joint position
Kept still
Meet my resistance
If pain, do FTPO

45
Q

Strong/Painless Break Test

A

Normal Contractile Unit

46
Q

Strong/Painful

A

Minor involvement in muscle or tendon

47
Q

Weak/Painful

A

More severe muscle or tendon lesion

48
Q

Weak/Painless

A

Complete muscle or tendon rupture or neurologic problem

49
Q

Mennell’s Rules for Joint Play Testing

A
Fully relaxed and supported
One joint at a time
One movement at a time
Unaffected joint first
One articular surface is stabilized while the other is moved
Normal movements
Should not cause undue discomfort
50
Q

Increased Tissue Temp

A

Inflammation, decreased sympathetic activity

51
Q

Decreased Tissue Temp

A

Decreased vascularity; increased sympathetic activity

52
Q

Moist & Smooth skin

A

Increased sympathetic activity

53
Q

Dry & Scaly Skin

A

Decreased sympathetic

54
Q

Tenderness

A

Inflammation; trigger sites
