Midterm OP Self-stretch Muscle (Static)

Question 1

How many steps are there in total for the self-stretch of a muscle section?

Answer 1

16

Question 2

Name steps 1 - 4 for self stretch (static stretching) of a muscle?

Answer 2

1. DESC. STATIC STRETCHING : IS HELD IN CHALLENGING BUT COMFORTABLE POSITION
2. POINT TO GENERAL ATTACHMENT PTS
3. INDICATION : MM TESTED SHORT, POSSIBLE ADHESIONS
4. BENEFIT : IS POSSIBLE INCREASE OF ROM, BY LENGTHENING THROUGH STRETCH

Question 3

Name steps 5 - 8 for self stretch (static stretching) of a muscle?

Answer 3

5. RISK : OVERSTRETCH, CAUSING MICRO TEARING
6. THERAPIST DEMONSTRATES STRETCH
   - avoiding ballistic (bouncy) movements - slow controlled
   - maintaining slow regular breathing
7. STATES : EXERCISE MUST BE STOPPED IF PAINFUL
   (and should be pain free)
8. ASKS PATIENT : ANY QUESTIONS for me?

Question 4

Name steps 9 - 12 for self stretch (static stretching) of a muscle?

Answer 4

9. STRETCH PERFORMED EFFECTIVELY TO MM
   - POSITION (SUBSTITUTE MOVEMENTS, POSTURE)
   - BARRIERS / BOLSTERS
10. FIRST BARRIER IDENTIFIED and DESCRIBED as first onset of slight tension in the muscle
11. CHECKS DURING STRETCH : FOR COMFORT/PAIN
12. CHECKS DURING STRETCH : REG BREATHING

Question 5

Name the final 4 steps (13 - 16) for self stretch (static stretching) of a muscle?

Answer 5

13. ASK IF PATIENT FEELS STRETCH
14. ASKS PATIENT TO POINT WHERE THEY FEEL STRETCH
15. STRETCH HELD FOR 30 SEC OR UNTIL RELEASE IS FELT - VERBALIZE REPEAT 2 X AT NEXT BARRIERS
16. SET PARAMETERS : REPEAT EVERY DAY
    (REPEAT: hold stretch for 30 sec at 3 tension barriers, REPEAT once every day)

Question 6

What are the first 8 steps for self stretch (static stretching) of a muscle?

Answer 8

• 1pt - FOR NOT REPEATING PARAMETER AT END
• 2pts - FOR WRONG SIDE
• 5pts - FOR WRONG MUSCLE
• 1pt - PROFESSIONALISM / BOUNDARIES
• 1pt - PATIENT COMFORT
