Q

It is felt uniformly in agonist and muscle only.
Spinal stretch reflexes are abnormal.
Rigidity is fairly constant regardless of the task, amplitude, or speed of movement.
Both Cogwheel & Leadpipe rigidity are found
true or false?

Q

what is freezing movement?

A

sudden block in the movement

17
Q

Slowness of movement, Movements are typically reduced in speed, range, and amplitude are related to bradykinesia
true or false?

A

true

18
Q

bradykinesia is the initial symptom of PD in about 70 % of patients
true or false?

A

false, tremor

19
Q

Involuntary oscillation of a body part occurring at a slow frequency of 4 to 6 Hz is?

A

rsting tremor

20
Q

Postural instability is rare in early years until 5 years of diagnosis
true or false?

A

true

21
Q

Extensor muscles of the trunk demonstrate lesser weakness than flexor muscles causing stooped posture and significant change in the center-of- alignment
true or false?

A

false, the opposite

22
Q

Freezing, poor gait, dementia, depression, postural hypotension, involuntary movements decrease the risk for falls
true or false?

A

false, increase

23
Q

rotational movements in motor planning are reduced
true or false?

A

true

24
Q

Insufficient hip, knee and ankle flexion is?

A

shuffling steps

25
Q

DBS could be just right for anyone having?

A

-Parkinson’s disease symptoms for at least 5 years
-Symptoms unresolved with regular medications
-Intolerable side effects of medicines

30
Q

Gait, balance, posture, and transfers are the key domains for physiotherapy within the PD

A

relaxation
flexibility
strengthening
functional training
balance

rhythmic initiation is effective for?

A

rigidity

34
Q

ROM Exercises
Passive stretching
Hold & Contract Relax
Passive Positioning
for?

A

flexibility exercises

35
Q

free weights are safer from machine exercises in strengthening
true or false?

false

36
Q

Force production during isokinetic contractions rather than isometric contractions have been noted for?

A

strengthening exercises

37
Q

what are the functional training
