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
Modalities
Assist the natural healing processes of the body while doing no harm
26
First and for acute phase healing
Protection, restricted activity, ice, compression, elevation
27
Modality treatment in fibroblastic phase
Treatment may change from cold to heat thermotherapy techniques may include hydro collar
28
Maturation-remodeling phase
Heating modalities are beneficial for healing, rolled of controlled mobility
29
Pain
Pain is a subjective sensation, composed of a variety of human discomforts
30
Types of pain
Acute pain, chronic pain, referred pain, radiating pain,sclerotomic pain
31
Acute pain
The pain of sudden onset
32
Chronic pain
Pain lasting for move than 6 months.
33
Referred pain
Pain that is perceived to be in an area that seems to have little relation to the existing pathology
34
Kehr'S sign
Your pain is somewhere else than while you are actually hurt
35
Myofascial trigger points
It is when the pain persists & worsens
36
Radiating pain
Pain caused by irritating nerve roots & extending dismally
37
Numeric rating of pain
Rate pain on a scale from 1-10 w 10 representing the worst pain the have experienced
38
How to measure the pain
Questions asked before & after treatment
39
Goals of managing pain
Encourage the body to heal through exercise designed to progressively increase functional capacity and to return the patient to work
40
Efferent fibers
Motor neurons transmit impulses from the brain toward the periphery
41
Afferent fibers
Sensory receptors toward the brain
