Q

what N root is HS reflex

A

L5, S1- medial hamstrings reflex

24
Q

what N root is achillies reflex

A

S1/S2

25
Q

femoral retroversion causes an increased or decreased Q angle

A

decreased

26
Q

At what neurological level are quads innervated

A

L3

27
Q

positioning strategy in SL on more affected side:

A

Positioning strategy in side lying on the more affected side - Scapula protracted; shoulder forward; arm placed in slight abduction and external rotation; elbow extended, forearm supinated, wrist neutral, fingers extended, and thumb abducted.

28
Q

positioning for R thoracic scolosis

A

Right thoracic scoliosis has the right thoracic spine convexity and it will cause high right shoulder, low left shoulder, scapula protruding on right, high protruding left hip, vertebral body rotated to right (towards convexity), spinous process deviated toward concave side.

29
Q

initial execise intensity for Pt. post single vessle CABG

A

Initial exercise intensity for the patient should be 40-60%HR max.

30
Q

what is Scleroderma is characterized by?

A

inflammation and fibrosis of many parts of the body, including the skin, blood vessels, synovium, skeletal muscle, and certain internal organs such as kidneys, lungs, heart, and GI tract.

31
Q

A superior dislocation of SC joint would have what effect on scapular mechanics

A

in ablility to elevate; During elevation, clavicle slide inferiorly and during depression it slides superiorly. Hence, the superior dislocation of SC joint will cause inability to elevate the scapula.

32
Q

MMT of pec major sternal head

A

the motion begins at 120° of shoulder abduction and moves diagonally down and in toward the patient’s opposite hip. Resistance is given above the wrist in an up and outward direction.

33
Q

Consistency of repeated measures performed by one individual is called

A

intrarater reliability

34
Q

when assessing a Pt. for signs and symptoms of CHF what is most important to look at
A. Body temperature and lung auscultation for rales
B. Heart rate and blood pressure
C. MMSE and lung auscultation for rales
D. Turgor and CBC

A

body temp and lung auscultation for rales

35
Q

when should we not start exercise 2/2 abnormal blood glucose levels (low and high)

A

<70 or >250

36
Q

where should A1C levels be ideally

A

<7, the lower the better

37
Q

presentation of polymyositis

A

symmetrical proximal weakness with malaise and weight loss

38
Q

what is providone-iodine used for

A

Povidone-iodine is usually used as a skin preparation to prevent surgical site infection. It can be used in acute traumatic wounds.

39
Q

silver sulfadiazine use

A

infection

40
Q

qhat is zinc oxide used for

A

various skin disorders

41
Q

is cauda equina an UMN injury or peripherial N injury

A

peripheral

42
Q

what patellar reflex would a herniated nucleus pulposus at L4 create

A

a weak or absent

43
Q

a SCI tumor at L1 would create a hypo or hyperreflex at the patellar tendon DTR testing

A

hyper, below the lesion of a spinal tumor would present like a UMN lesion

44
Q

does R sidelying often increase or decrease MSK pain

A

Right sidelying often increases musculoskeletal pain but may decrease pleural friction/irritation and thus may decrease visceral pain

45
Q

why would foot plates too high increase pain for ASIA A C8 Pt?

A

Footrests that are too high shift the patient’s weight posteriorly onto the buttocks, leading to pressure and pain

46
Q

what is atrophie blanche

A

characterized by white, scar like areas associated with pain at rest and when standing. affected areas present as smooth white plaques

47
Q

what is superficial venous thrombosis

A

pain and tenderness along the affected vein, usually saphenous vein
