Q

Law of grotthus-Draper

A

The greater the amount absorbed the less transmitted and the less transmitted and thus the less penetration

Q

Cosine law

A

The smaller the angle between the propagating radiation and the right angles the less radiation reflected of the greater the absorption

17
Q

Acute phase

A

4 to 7 to 10 days
Redness/ swelling/pain/Heat/loss of function

18
Q

Fibroblastic

A

Caused by call death, leads to a period of scar formation and repair of injured

19
Q

Remodeling

A

Realignment of collagen fibers along lines of tensile force

20
Q

Wolff’s law

A

Bone tissue will respond to the physical demands placed on them causing them to remodel along lines of tensile force

21
Q

Immobilization during the inflammatory

A

Response phase will facilitate healing by controlling
Iinflammation

22
Q

Controlled mobilization superior

A

Decreases scar formation, increase revascularization, facilitates muscle regeneration, reorientation of muscle & ligament fibers.

23
Q

Progression criteria in controlled mobilization in the remodeling phase

A

Aggressive passive & than active ROM

24
Q

Factors that impede healing

A

Extent of injury, edema, hemorrhage, poor vascular supply, separation of tissue, muscle spasm, atrophy, Corticosteroids, keloids & hypertrophic scar, infection, humidity, climate, age, Health nutritions

25
Q

Modalities

A

Assist the natural healing processes of the body while doing no harm

26
Q

First and for acute phase healing

A

Protection, restricted activity, ice, compression, elevation

27
Q

Modality treatment in fibroblastic phase

A

Treatment may change from cold to heat thermotherapy techniques may include hydro collar

28
Q

Maturation-remodeling phase

A

Heating modalities are beneficial for healing, rolled of controlled mobility

29
Q

Pain

A

Pain is a subjective sensation, composed of a variety of human discomforts

30
Q

Types of pain

A

Acute pain, chronic pain, referred pain, radiating pain,sclerotomic pain

31
Q

Acute pain

A

The pain of sudden onset

32
Q

Chronic pain

A

Pain lasting for move than 6 months.

33
Q

Referred pain

A

Pain that is perceived to be in an area that seems to have little relation to the existing pathology

34
Q

Kehr’S sign

A

Your pain is somewhere else than while you are actually hurt

35
Q

Myofascial trigger points

A

It is when the pain persists & worsens

36
Q

Radiating pain

A

Pain caused by irritating nerve roots & extending dismally

37
Q

Numeric rating of pain

A

Rate pain on a scale from 1-10 w 10 representing the worst pain the have experienced

38
Q

How to measure the pain

A

Questions asked before & after treatment

39
Q

Goals of managing pain

A

Encourage the body to heal through exercise designed to progressively increase functional capacity and to return the patient to work

40
Q

Efferent fibers

A

Motor neurons transmit impulses from the brain toward the periphery

41
Q

Afferent fibers

A

Sensory receptors toward the brain
