MSK Intervention

Question 1

Contract Relax Stretching

Answer 1

uses max isometric against PT followed by relaxation with limb pushed further
uses?=increase mobility of joint

Question 2

Oscillation grades

Answer 2

Grade 1= small amplitude at beginning of end range
2=large amplitude at 25-50%
3=large amplitude at 50-100%
4=small amplitude past tissue resistance
*Grades 1/2=for pain
3/4=for ROM

Question 3

Explain convex-concave rule

Answer 3

Convex on concave=concave is fixed so direction of mob is opposite of limitation
if Convex surface is fixed=roll and glide in same direction

Question 4

If limitations are found in GH abduction and flexion what glides would you do?

Answer 4

Inferior glide

Question 5

If limited GH ER what glide would you use?

Answer 5

posterior

Question 6

if limited hip flexion what glide?

Answer 6

Inferior glide

Question 7

if limited knee extension what glide?

Answer 7

anterior glide
flexion=posterior glide

Question 8

If limited Df what glide?

Answer 8

DF=posterior

Question 9

if a patient is limited in subtaler eversion what glide?

Answer 9

Medial glide

Question 10

If limited wrist extension what glide?

Answer 10

anterior glide

Question 11

If a patient has a suspected RC tear what imaging is best to see it?

Answer 11

MRI (good for soft tissue)

Question 12

If fat appears brighter on an MRI and fluid is darker what kind is this?

Answer 12

T1
T2=fluid is brighter & fibrous tissue is darker (good for ID joint pathologies
