other pt interventions Flashcards
discuss aquatic exercise
use of water to facilitate therapeutic exercise
purpose of aquatic exercise
faci functional recovery by providing an environment that augments pts ability to perform interventions
goals and indic of aquatic exercise
faci ROM
initiate resistance training
faci WB activities
enhance delivery of manual techniques
3D assessment of pt
faci CV ex
initiate functional activity replication
min injury and re-injury
relaxation
precautions of aquatic ex
fear of water
neurological disorders
respiratory condition
cardiac dysfunction
small, open wound and IV lines
contra of aquatic ex
cardiac failure and unstable angina
respiratory dysfunction - VC < 1L
bleeding/hemorrhage
open wounds s occlusive dressing
uncontrolled bowel and bladder
menstruation s internal protection
water and airborne infections
uncontrolled seizures
discuss buoyancy
upward force that works opposite gravity
Archimedes’ Principle - immersed body experiences upward thrust equal to the volumes of liquid displaced
discuss hydrostatic psi
pressure exerted by fluid on an immersed object - pascal’s law
discuss viscosity
friction occurring between molecules of liquid in resistance to flow.
what happens to hydrostatic psi as density of water and depth of immersion increase
increase
Resistance from viscosity is proportional to ______
velocity of movement through liquid.
what happens to resistance if you inc velocity and surface area
inc resistance
relate work to an extremity that moves through surface vs underwater
extremity that moves through the surface performs more work than if under water - d/t surface tension
discuss WB c immersion
for pt c WB restrictions - LE surgery, joint pain/replacements
C7 - 10%
xiph - 33%
ASIS - 50%
exercises applicable for 26-35°C
Flexibility
Strengthening
Gait Training
Relaxation
exercises applicable for 26-28°C
CV training and aerboic ex
22-26°C if >80% HRmax to minimize heat illness
water temp for acute painful MSK injuries
33°C - relax, inc pain threshold and dec muscle spasm
what is massage
manip of body tissue using hands to affect nervous and muscular system and general circulation
physiological effects of massage
reflex effects
mechanical effects
