24
Q

the bones and cartilage that protect our organs and allow us to move are called

A

Skeletal system

25
Q

provides functions for the body through:
contraction, motion, maintenance of posture, heat production

A

Muscular System

26
Q

the nerve impulses stimulate muscles to contract

A

Nervous System

27
Q

is the efficient use of the body as a machine and as a mean of locomotion, correct body mechanics lead to health promotion and illness prevention

A

Body Mechanics

28
Q

bring body parts into position in a manner that promotes optimal balance and maximal body function whether the client is standing, sitting, or lying down

A

Alignment and Posture

29
Q

are the functional units of the musculoskeletal system

A

Joints

30
Q

maximum movement that is possible for that joint

A

Range of motion

31
Q

term used to describe awareness of posture, movement, and changes in equilibrium and knowledge

A

Prioception

32
Q

A person’s age and musculoskeletal and nervous system development affect posture, body proportions, body mass, body movements, and reflexes

A

Growth and Development

33
Q

Limitations to movement may be medically prescribed for some health problems. To promote healing, devices such as casts, braces, splints, and traction are often used to immobilize body parts

A

Prescribed Limitations

34
Q

the bones become spongy and may gradually deform and fracture easily

A

osteoporosis

35
Q

muscles losing most of their strength and normal function

A

atrophy

36
Q

when the muscle fibres are not able to shorten and lengthen

A

Contractures

37
Q

common result of immobilization. The blood pools in the lower extremities, and central blood pressure drops

A

Orthostatic hypotension

38
Q

your veins can’t send the blood from your legs back to your heart

A

Venous stasis

39
Q

the skeletal muscles do not contract sufficiently, and the muscles atrophy, so the skeletal muscles can no longer assist in pumping blood back to the heart against gravity

A

Venous Vasodilation and stasis

40
Q

when the venous pressure is sufficiently great. Some part of the blood is forced out of the blood vessel into the interstitial spaces surrounding the blood vessel

A

Dependent Edema

41
Q

The abdominal organs push against the diaphragm, restricting lung movement and making it difficult to expand the lungs fully

A

Decreased respiratory movement

42
Q

respiratory tract are normally expelled by changing positions or posture and by coughing

A

Pooling of Respiratory Secretions

43
Q

is the collapse of a lobe or of an entire lung

A

Atelectasis

44
Q

pooled secretions provide an excellent medium for bacterial growth

A

Pneumonia

45
Q

loss of appetite occurs because of the decreased metabolic rate and the increased catabolism that accompany immobility

A

Anorexia

46
Q

list the types of exercises

A

Isotonic
Isometric
Isokinetic
Aerobic
Anaerobic

47
Q

Dynamic Exercise in which the muscle shortens to produce contraction and movement. Are ADLs and active ROM exercises (those initiated by the client)

A

isotonic

48
Q

Are those in which there is a change in muscle tension but no change in muscle length

A

ISOMETRIC

49
Q

involve muscle contraction or tension against resistance

A

Isokinetic

50
Q

an activity during which the amount of oxygen taken into the body is greater than that used to perform the activity

A

Aerobic

51
Q

involves activity in which the muscles cannot draw out enough oxygen from the bloodstream

A

Anaerobic

52
Q

When the person remains in bed, gravity impedes the emptying of urine from the kidneys and the urinary bladder, so emptying is not as complete

A

Urinary stasis

53
Q

which is accumulation of urine the bladder, bladder distention, and occasionally urinary incontinence

A

Urinary Retention

54
Q

static urine provides an excellent medium for bacterial growth

A

Urinary infection

55
Q

Related to Bed Rest and Immobility generalized weakness, sedentary lifestyle, and imbalance between oxygen supply and demand

A

Activity Intolerance

56
Q

decreased strength and endurance, pain, perceptual or cognitive impairment, neuromuscular impairment, musculoskeletal impairment, and depression or severe anxiety

A

Impaired Physical Mobility related to intolerance to activity

57
Q

Inability to wash body parts, inability to obtain or get to water source, activity intolerance, decreased strength and endurance, pain, and impaired transfer ability

A

Self Care Deficits Related to Inability

58
Q

related to impaired mobility. Alterations in family and social processes may also result from immobility and inactivity. Disruption in activity and mobility leads to impairment of the ability to perform one’s usual social vocational, educational, and family roles

A

Risk for Falls

59
Q

Self-Esteem can result from

A

Changes in physical abilities

Changes in family responsibilities

Lack of knowledge regarding rehabilitation
