nerve
What type of pain is localized and may refer to peripheral areas?
muscle pain
What type of pain also refers and is termed sclerotomal patterns?
ligament
What are the three types of pain scales?
- visual analog (0-100)
- Borg pain scale(0-10)
- Severiry f pain grading system AMA guides
What is the AMA guides grading scale for pain?
Minimal = annoyance, no impairment
Slight = can be tolerated, some impairment
Moderate = marked impairment
Marked = precludes any activity
What type of pain description is given with dermatomal pain?
Radiating, sharp, stabbing and well demarcated
What type of pain description is described with myogenous pain?
pain referal within muscular or fascial tissue
What type of pain description is given with scleratogenous pain?

- Telencephalon
- Diencephalon
- Mesencephalon
- Pons and cerebellum
- medulla oblongata
What is the scale for grading muscle strength?
0 = no contraction
1 = Trace of contraction 0 - 10%
2 = Movement without gravity 11-25%
3= movement against gravity 26-50%
4 = Movement against gravity plus variable resistance 51-75%
5 = Movement against gravity plus maximal resistance 76-100%
What is seen with a ligament sprain:
- first degree
- second degree
- third degree
- < 1/3 of fibers torn w/ slightly dec. in strength
- >1/3 fibers torn with marked dec in strength
- >2/3 fibers torn, complete failure, little to no strength and typically no pain

nerve conduction rates below what number occur frequently in neuropathies?
below 40 m/s
What is myelopathy?
Dysfunction of the spinal cord
What is Radiculopathy?
