22
Q

how do you grade muscle strength

A

0-5
0=no contraction
5= 100% normal

23
Q

1 muscle grade

A

slight contraction, 10%, trace

24
Q

2 muscle grade

A

able to move joint in a gravity eliminated position 25%,poor

25
Q

3 muscle grade

A

able to move joint against gravity but not resistance 50%, fair

26
Q

4 muscle grade

A

able to move joint with some resistance through ROM, 75% good

27
Q

< then what muscle grade we do ROM on patient

A

<2

28
Q

goniometer

A

measurement instrument for angle of movement

29
Q

active ROM

A

joint movement should be smooth and painless

30
Q

how does active ROM compare to movement against resistance?

A

-less muscle tension and joint compression is seen with Active Rom compare to movement against resistance

31
Q

passive rom

A

move relaxed joint through limits of movement

32
Q

if ROM is limited try to determine if its from:

A
  • excess fluid in joint
  • loose bodies are present
  • joint surface irregularity or contracture of muscle
33
Q

normal gait

A

smooth, rhythmic, effortless, contralateral

34
Q

parkinson’s gait

A
  • pill rolling arm and hand movement
  • persistent tremor
  • shuffling gait taking small steps
35
Q

syndactyly

A

Having fingers or toes that are joined

36
Q

polydactyly

A

extra fingers or toes

37
Q

genu varum

A

bowlegged

38
Q

genu valgum

A

knock knee

39
Q

talipes equinovarus

A

clubfoot

40
Q

gout most common location

A

great toe #1

-ankle, knee, elbow, foot

41
Q

tophi

A

masses of urin crystals in gout

42
Q

late stage rhematoid arthritis hands

A
  • boutonniere deformity of thumb
  • ulnar deviation of metacarpalophangeal joint
  • swan neck deformity of fingers
43
Q

late stage osteoarthritis hands

A

heberden’s nodes

bouchards nodes

44
Q

heberden’s nodes

A

Heberden’s nodes are hard bony lumps in the joints of your fingers. They are typically a symptom of osteoarthritis. The lumps grow on the joint closest to the tip of your finger, called the distal interphalangeal, or DIP joint.
osteoarthritis

45
Q

bouchards nodes

A

Bouchard nodes are bony enlargements of the middle joints of the fingers, also known as proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints
xosteoarthritis

46
Q

dislocation

A

one or more bones in a joint being out of position

47
Q

subluxation

A

partial dislocation of a joint

48
Q

contracture

A

shortening of a muscle leading to limited range of motion of joint

49
Q

ankylosis

A

stiffness or fixation of a joint

50
Q

age related musculoskeleteal changes

A
  • decrease muscle mass/tone
  • redistribution of fat
  • resoption of bones - deposition
  • decrease bone density
  • postural changes
  • shortening of vertebral column - decrease height
  • osteoarthritic changes in joints
51
Q

MS only

A

-inspection, palpate, assess rom and strength

52
Q

neuro only

A
  • inspect/observe
  • LOC
  • reflexes
53
Q

are reflexes part of every head to toe?

A

no, they are considered for focused and not part of every head to toe
