Q

two primary causes for osteomalacia

A

insufficient intestinal calcium absorption and increased renal phosphorus losses

25
strength training for adults
reduce risk of osteoporosis, improved postural stability, reduce risk of falling, ROM, etc
26
sarcopenia
loss in muscle mass, strength and changes in the metabolic quality of skeletal muscle
27
neoplasm
abnormal growth of cells and its often used interchangeably with tumor
28
RA
develops btwn ages 25 to 50 affects women more than men multifactorial: local biomechanocal factors, previous injury. Can affect any joint, predilection for upper extremities Morning stiffness for 1 hr Fatigue, malaise, weight loss, fever Synovial fluid has high WBC and low viscosity
29
OA
begins at age 40 or over 65 most common in men before 45, after 45 women immunologic reaction with massive inflammatory response, genetic and environment triggers it begins on joint or one side of body no systemic symptoms, Effusions infrequently, synovial fluid has low WBC and high viscosity Rheumatoid factor absent
30
spinal muscular atrophy
progressive weakness and wasting of skeletal muscles resulting from anterior horn cell degeneration. second most common fatal autosomal recessive disorder after cystic fibrosis. postion in vertical, caution with prone types 1. severe, werfnig hoffmann 2. intermediate, dont walk without assistance 3. mild, can walk, most use device
31
club foot vs rocker bottom
club foot, feet is twisted in ward and tendons shorter than usual. found in children with spina bifida. Rocker bottom bottom of the foot flexes in the opposite direction, making the middle of the foot touch the floor, while the toes and heel curve upward, spina bifida, myelomeningocele.
32
characteristic of multiple congenital contracture
present at birth (results form decreased fetal movement) amyoplasia (lack of muscle formation) affects hands and feet
33
most common cause of osteomyelitis
bacteria infection
34
Dermatomyositis
causes muscle weakness and skin rash. Symptoms include a red or purple rash on sun exposed skin and eyelids, calcium deposits under the skin, muscle weakness, and trouble talking or swallowing.
35
Myopathy
due to inflammation in the muscles themselves. weakness and dysfunction.
36
neoplasm
ABNORMAL GROWTH OF CELLS AND IS OFTEN USED INTERCHANGEABLY WITH TUMOR
37
ways cancer spreads
growing into, or invading, nearby normal tissue. moving through the walls of nearby lymph nodes or blood vessels. traveling through the lymphatic system and bloodstream to other parts of the body.
38
Benefits of strength training for older adults
help to prevent osteoporosis and frailty by stimulating the growth of muscle and bone.mproves joint ROM. improves maximal and rapid strength. decrease risk falls. decrease in HR, BP, and RPE.
39
strength training over age of 8
as the child is mature enough to follow directions and able to practice proper technique and form. children do not build muscle but become stronger
40
multiple myeloma
can weaken your bones and increase your risk of fractures and bone pain
41
Heterotopic ossificans
is a diverse pathologic process, defined as the formation of extraskeletal bone in muscle and soft tissues. Risk factors include spasticity, older age, pressure ulcer, the presence of DVT, edema, immobility, long-term coma.
42
osteochondritis dissecans s/s
repetitive stress on the joint, low vitamin D and a genetic predisposition are often linked to this condition. Symptoms; pain, swelling, locking and a “giving way” sensation in the affected joint.
43
myopathy symptoms
Muscle weakness, most commonly of your upper arms and shoulders and thighs. Muscle cramps, stiffness Fatigue Lack of energy.
44
osteosarcoma
cancer that begins in the cells that form bones. long bones. inherited. s: A bump, depending on where the tumor is located. Redness and warmth at the site of the tumor. Anemia. Fever. Exhaustion. Unexplained weight loss.
45
reactive arhtritis
joint pain and swelling triggered by an infection in another part of the body. most often the intestines, genitals or urinary tract. This condition usually targets the knees, ankles and feet.
46
Myofascial compartment syndrome
an increase in pressure inside a muscle, which restricts blood flow and causes pain. s: pain, pallor (pale skin tone), paresthesia (numbness feeling), pulselessness (faint pulse) and paralysis.
47
The most common type of brachial plexus injury is ___________ and affects nerve roots _
Erbs, C5-C6
48
Precautions for treating people with Down Syndrome include:
presence of cardiovascular disease/defects Atlanto-axial instability (AAI) compromised respiratory expansion
49
A rib hump (Gibbus) becomes more apparent in scoliosis during which position?
forward bending
50
Legg-Calve-Perthes
childhood condition that occurs when blood supply to the ball part (femoral head) of the hip joint is temporarily interrupted and the bone begins to die. s.Limping. Pain or stiffness in the hip, groin, thigh or knee. limited ROM
51
begin vs malignant tumors
A benign tumor has distinct, smooth, regular borders. A malignant tumor has irregular borders and grows faster than a benign tumor. A malignant tumor can also spread to other parts of your body. A benign tumor can become quite large, but it will not invade nearby tissue or spread to other parts of your body.
52
Ankylosing spondylitis
type of arthritis that causes inflammation in the joints and ligaments of the spine. people who have a gene called HLA-B27 are at a greatly increased risk of developing. pain and stiffness in the lower back and hips, especially in the morning and after periods of inactivity.
53
effects of bed rest
Patients who spend prolonged periods in bed are at increased risk of a range of physical adverse effects, including gastric reflux, constipation, reduced metabolic rate, glucose intolerance, insulin resistance, sensorimotor dysfunction, reduced serotonin levels and structural changes to brain tissues.

54
Paget’s disease
increased bone density, decreased strength
