radiographic exam grade 2

A

definite osteophyte and absent or doubtful narrowing

radiographic exam grade 3

A

moderate osteophytes and joint space narrowing

some sclerosis and possible deformity

83
Q

radiographic exam grade 4

A

large ostephytes and marked narrowing

severe sclerosis and definite deformity

84
Q

explain how blood workups can be use to diagnose OA

A

CRP and ESR are normal in OA; so marrule out RA kase mag ppositive pag inflammatory

85

explain how MRI can be use to diagnose OA

A

more sensitive than xray - ordered in spinal OA to identify if may entrapment

rule out avascular necrosis

86
Q

earliest symptom of OA

A

pain

87
Q

SSx of OA

A

localized joint pain worse in activity and relieved w rest

locking or giving away of joint

morning gel less than 30 mins

88
Q

PE of OA

A

nodes
crepitus
cool effusions
decrease ROM
tenderness and pain on passive motion

common on WB joints - knee and hips
second common on DIP and PIP of hands

89
Q

compare heberdens and bouchards nodes

A

heberden - DIP; HD

bouchard - PIP; BP

90
Q

deformities due to OA

A

heberdens and bouchards

swan neck ant buttoniere

ulnar dev, hallux valgus

91
Q

non-pharmacologic management for OA

A

weight loss
exercise flexibility
strengthening
inc proprioception and balance
modalities
orthotic managemet

92
Q

discuss significance of weight loss for OA

A

obesity is a risk factor - prevent onset and progression if lighter

93
Q

discuss significance of flexibility for OA

A

decreases shortening of tendinous structures

dec joint stiffness

dec shortening of muscles

avoid ballistic stretch

94
