Motion Dynamics Flashcards
Somatic Dysfunction
Impaired or altered function of related components of the somatic system including: skeletal, arthrodial, and myofascial structures, and their related vascular, lymphatic, and neural elements
the 3 types of joints that dictate ROM
fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial
T/F most joints have a primary motion in one plane with smaller motions in the other 2 planes
true
what are the 3 descriptions of ROM
direction (flexion, extensions, etc)
range (measurement in degrees)
quality
what are the 4 descriptions of ROM quality
smooth -normal
ratcheting- i.e. Parkinsons
restricted - contracture or SD
resistance to induced motion- i.e. cerebral palsy
what are the 5 types of end feel of ROM
elastic-rubber band abrupt- osteoarthritis/hinge joint hard - SD empty- patient gaurding crisp-involuntary grading (pinched nerve)
range of motion in a joint or group of joints or the ability to move joints effectively through a complete range of motion
flexibility
what are the 3 descriptions of flexibility
static- max ROM a joint can reach with external force
dynamic- ROM an athlete can reach and speed at which she can reach it
stiffness- reduced ROM of joint
which part of the spine displays greatest ROM
cervical spine
consistent association of motion along or about one axis with another motion about or along a second axis. the principle motion cannot be produced without the associated motion occurring as well
coupled motion
ROM in spine
what is the relationship of joint mechanics with surrounding structures that may allow an increase in ROM
linkage
should-spine ; spine-hip/pelvic
osteogenesis imperfecta
blue sclera around eyes and multiple bone fractures
alport syndrome
deafness
kidney dysfunction
menses disease
copper def
-kinky hair, poor growth, nervous system deterioration
requirement for ehlers danlos diagnosis
- 2 major criteria (beighton score >4 or arthralgia for longer than 3 months in 4 or more joints)
- 1 major or 2 minor criteria
- 4 minor criteria
- 2 minor criteria and affected primary relative
