OPP MISSED U WORLD Flashcards
A patient with cirrhosis along with fever and ascites + abdominal tenderness is concerning for
a bacterial infection of the ascitic fluid known as sponataenous bacterial peritonitis
caasued by enteric bacteria like ecoli and klebsiella
what is the first best step in treatment of someone with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis
uregnt evaluation in the ER with a paracentesis
diagnosis is made when the ascitic fluid neutrophil count is greater than 250mm
after urgent evaluation of SBP what is the next step?
starting IV broad spectrum antibiotics
Acute back pain usually resolves in 6 weeks if MSK in nature what is the best step to treating
exluding red flags (malingnacy, constituional symptoms)
Anaglesgics, OMT(gentle)- reciprocal inhibition)
anaglescis like NSAIDS are contraindicated in CKD and GI bleeding so topical ones can be used or a lidocain patch would also work
lateral femoral cutatneous nerve distribution
upper lateral thigh
L2-L3
LFCN runs lateral to the psoas underneath the inguinal ligament
Meralgia paresthetica
leg pain and decreased sensation in the distrubution of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve
pain, parathetias, numbness but strength is normal
Meralgia Paresthetics treatment
- decrease nerve compression (weight loss)
- address somatic dysfunctions
a radial head fracture should be considered in patients with?
limited forearm range of motion and tenderness over the lateral aspect of the elbow
evaluation of a radial head fracture?
- plane radiographs
- pain control, orthopedic evaluation, potential surgery, OMT
chapman point of the kidney
anterior: 1 inch lateral and above umbillicus
posterior: between the spinous and transverse process of T12-L1
what lies at the chapman point between the sinous process and transverse process of T9-T11
ovary
thomas test is positive in
psoas syndrome
tender point: 2/3 between the ASIS and midline
chapman point for anterior lumbar 1
just medial to the ASIS
piriformis chapman point
7cm medial to the greater trochanter
treatment: FABER
lower pole L5 tenderpoint
just below the PSIS
treatment: prone, extend hip, adduct and rotate
upper pole L5 tenderpoint
just above the PSIS
treatment: prone, extend at hip, adduct and internally rotate
rotator cuff tendinopathy symptom involving the supraspinatus
painful shoulder abduction
point tenderness at the acromion
remodeling of the tissue
preserved strangth and ROM
adhesive caspulitis
glenohumeral joint caspule contracture that causes decreased ROM in the shoulder
bicipital tendonitis
inflammation of the long head of the biceps tendon
anterior shoulder pain with painful arm flexion or supination
labral tears of the gelnohumoral joint
reduced ROM and crepitus
Rotator Cuff tendiopathy diagnosis and treatment
- clinical diagnosis unless you suspect something else then imaging (tear)
- conservative management -NSAIDS, PT, OMT
shoulder immobilization should be avoided after most shoulder injuries because
there is a risk of developing capular adhesions (spencer techniques can aid in breaking up capsular adhesions)
patient with dysuria, urinary frequency, isolated pyuria (WBC) but no bacteruria most likely has?
infectious urethritis
STD
chapman point of the urethra
anterior: on the pubic symphysis
posterior: on the transverse process of L3
Lumbosacral spring test
determines whether of not the sacral sulci have moved anteriorly or posteriorly
normal: pressing on the lumbosacral junction will cause a springing motion of the sacrum in relation to L5 (NEGATIVE TEST)
Positive test: decreased springing and the sacral sulci have moved posteriorly into EXTENSION relative to L5
negative= flexion
postivie= extension
psoas syndrome symptoms
LBP
lumbar somatic dysfunctions
positive thomas test (painful hip extension)
innominate inflare treated with direct muscle energy cause the patient to contract which muscle
adductor magnus (medial rotator of the hip)
innominate outflare treated with direct muscle energy causes the patient to contract which muscle
gluteus maximus
schapoid frfacture pain
lateral wrist pain and tenderness in the snuff box
confirm by X ray!!
treatment of scaphoid fracture
immbolization and orthopedic evaluation
progressive and chronic low back pain that radaites down the leg and sensory loss (numbness and tingling) is caused by
spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal or intervertebral foramen)
facet joint oeteophytes and ligamentum flavum hypertrophy
in spinal stenosis symptoms are worse with
lumbar extension and relieved by lumbar flexion (leaning on stroller)
L5 nerve root compression
L5-S1 affects L5
anterior lower leg sensory loss and dorsal doot
iliotibial band syndrome findings
lateral knee pain, tenderness over the right lateral femoral epicondyle
positive ober test
treatment of iliotibilar band syndrome
rest/ice/NSAIDS
PT
Stretching
how do you stretch the IT band
sit on the floor and cross the affected leg over the unaffected leg, pull affected leg medially hold for 30 seconds and then repeat
how to stretch the hip adductor muscle
felx, abduct and externally rotate
how to stretch the hamstrings and gluteal muscles
flex the hip. extend the knee in the supine position
standing with the right leg over the left leg and bending at the torso whoucl stretch what muscle
left IT band along the hamstring
contraction of the SCM
sidebending of the neck to the same side and rotation of the neck to the opposite side
in sacral torsions L5 rotates in the _ direction of the sacrum and sidebends _ the oblique axis
opposite
SB towards
direct reciprocal inhibition
direct muscle energy technique that causes reciprocal antagoinist contraction to relax the hypertonic agonist muscle
fever, nausea, LLQ pain that radiates to the groin with a chapman point midway between the left transverse process of L3 and the highest point of the left iliac crest has?
acute diverticulitis which is common in the sigmoid colon
posterior chapman point is a triangular area between the transverse processes of L2-L4 and the highest point of the iliac crest
anterior: IT band
