delayed union
malunion
nonunion
cancellous

55
Q

A Jones fracture is associated with injury to which structure?

A

The base/tuberosity of the fifth metatarsal typically as a result an adduction force to the forefoot with the ankle in PF

synergist
fixator
antagonist
agonist

57

Diarthrosis joints move

58
Q

When is ROM activities contraindicated

A

When motion is detrimental to the healing of tissues

59
Q

_____ is movement that is produced by an external force without muscular activation from the patient.

60
Q

What is the term for when movement is gone beyond end range

A

stretching

61
Q

____ is movement that is produced by the patient through active muscular contraction with some assistance from an external force

62
Q

____ is movement that is produced by the patient through active muscular contraction without any external assistance

63
Q

What are the indications and contradictions for stretching

A

Indications: Decreased joint ROM or decreased flexibility

Contraindications: Acute inflammation, soft tissue healing repair/tendon repair, recent fracture, hypermobility

64
Q

The ability of soft tissue to return to its previous length after a stretch is no longer applied

elasticity
viscoelasticity
plasticity
stress-strain curve
creep
stress-relaxation

A

elasticity

65
Q

A time dependent property of soft tissue that results in resistance to stretch when it is initially applied, but allows for tissue elongation as the stretch is held for longer durations

elasticity
viscoelasticity
plasticity
stress-strain curve
creep
stress-relaxation

A

viscoelasticity

66
Q

A property of soft tissue that allows for tissue elongation even after a stretch is no longer applied

elasticity
viscoelasticity
plasticity
stress-strain curve
creep
stress-relaxation

A

plasticity

67
Q

A graphic representation that depicts the relationship between the amount of force/stress applied to connective tissue and the amount of deformation/strain it experiences

elasticity
viscoelasticity
plasticity
stress-strain curve
creep
stress-relaxation

A

stress strain curve

68
Q

Due to viscoelastic property, soft tissue that is stretched for a sustained duration will elongate and not return to its original length after load has been removed

elasticity
viscoelasticity
plasticity
stress-strain curve
creep
stress-relaxation

69
Q

The longer a stretching force is maintained, the more the tension within the tissue decreases, therefor less force is required to maintain the same tissue length

elasticity
viscoelasticity
plasticity
stress-strain curve
creep
stress-relaxation

A

stress-relaxation

70
Q

What are the different methods of stretching

A

static
ballistic
PNF
dynamic

71
Q

Which method of stretching involves low intensity and long duration

72
Q

Which method of stretching is considered to be the safest and result in the greatest gains in tissue extensibility

73
Q

Which method of stretching involves high intensity and low duration

74
Q

Type of exercises indicated for degenerative spondylolisthesis (flexion or extension)

A

Flexion

Exercises that provide core stabilization and increase flexibility should be included in the patient’s program. Repetitive or end-range lumbar extension should be avoided with spondylolisthesis due to the risk of exacerbating the condition as this position causes the vertebrae to approximate thereby placing more pressure on the nerve roots.

75
Q

Which muscle is primarily responsible for a SLR while the patient is laying supine

biceps femoris
rectus femoris
sartorius
vastus medialis

A

rectus femoris

76
Q

What muscles are emphasized in a standing row exercise with the arms parallel with the floor using a cable system?

anterior deltoid and pectoralis major
infraspinatus and teres minor
middle trapezius and rhomboids
upper trapezius and latissimus dorsi

A

Middle trapezius and rhomboids

77
Q

At what angle of knee flexion is the quadriceps femoris capable of producing a maximum force contraction?

15 degrees
45 degrees
90 degrees
135 degrees

78
Q

New bone formation in response to resistance training occurs primarily in which area of the bone?

periosteum
endosteum
epiphysis
diaphysis

A

periosteum

79
Q

Which of the following activities is most likely to increase an individual’s bone mineral density at the hips and spine?

baseball
swimming
gymnastics
