POSITIVE VIBES Flashcards
Peak incidence of scoliosis
11-13 in F
13-14 in M
Prostaglandins - stomach
Prostaglandins helps protect the lining of the stomach by inhibiting gastric acid secretion and increasing the production of mucous in the stomach lining
NSAIDs and prostaglandins
NSAIDs inhibit the production of prostaglandins which results in stomach becoming more susceptible to damage from the gastric acids
Sarcoidosis
Occurs primarily btw ages 20 and 40
W more than M
Primary characteristics = Tiny clumps of abnormal tissue (granulomas) that form on certain organs or over certain regions of the body
Most commonly the lungs, skin, bones, mm, and nervous system
Systemic sclerosis
Scleroderma = autoimmune disorder affecting CT that results in fibrosis of skin, BVs, joints, and internal organs
Primary characteristic of initial stages is bilateral non pitting edema that is eventually replaced by thick, hard skin
Bronchiectasis
Progressive and obstructive lung disease secondary to a chronic bacterial infection
Irreversible destruction and dilation of the airways
Primary characteristic = persistent cough, large amounts of purulent sputum
PKU - if untreated can lead to
Intellectual disability
Tremors
MM coordination deficits
Seizures
Weak PF - what is possible gait deviation from foot flat to midstance
Foot flat to midstance = PF cx eccentrically to control DF moment and ant translation of tibia
Weakness in PF = excessive DF
Normal Q angle
13 in M
18 in F
Normal anteversion
8-15 degrees
More = anteversion
Less = retroversion
End stage renal disease - pt will develop s/s associated with
Impaired fluid and waste excretion - systemic and pulmonary edema
Urine output is decreased
Kidney plays role in development of erythropoietin so will often see anemia too
Assoc of CP rehab classifies an EF of 45% as what risk for increased mortality and morbidity
Moderate risk
Still able to participate in exercise program
Assoc of CP rehab classifies pt with hx of uncomplicated MI and/or cardiac surgery as what risk for increased mortality and morbidity
Low risk
Assoc of CP rehab classifies pt with ST segment depression of 1 mm as what risk for increased mortality and morbidity
Moderate risk
If was greater than 2 mm then would be high risk
Assoc of CP rehab classifies pt with ventricular arrhythmias at rest as what risk for increased mortality and morbidity
High risk
Pts with uncontrolled arrhythmias should be excluded from exercise
Following cardiac transplant - what changes with HR
Increased resting HR (often greater than 80 bpm)
Dec HR response with exercise
Dec peak HR during exercise
Cushing syndrome - common s/s
Hypertension caused by potassium depletion and Na and H20 retention
Hypertension can cause left ventricular hypertrophy and inc risk of CHF or CVA
Central obesity, moon shaped face, hyperfunction of adrenal cortex
Tarsal tunnel is located
Posterior to the medial malleolus
Pain typically around the ankle region and may extend into toes
Half kneeling - anterior vs. posterior LE
The posterior LE is maintaining hip extension and lower trunk control
Order them from easiest to hardest for someone post CVA - half kneel with involved ant, half knee with involved post, tall kneel, bridge
Bridge
Half kneel with involved ant
Tall kneel
Half kneel with involved post
Controlled mobility refers to what
Ability to move within a WB position or rotate around a long axis
Activities emphasize weight shifting and trunk control with rotation
Stages of motor control
Mobility
Stability
Controlled mobility
Skill
Stability refers to what
Ability to maintain a position or posture through cocontraction and tonic holding around a joint
Unsupported sit with midline control is example
Gag reflex - which nerve
Glossopharyngeal
PT touches pharynx with tongue depressor
Jaw jerk reflex - which nerve
Trigeminal nerve
Somatoagnosia
Impairment of body schema where there is a lack of awareness of a body structure and its relationship to other body parts, to oneself or to others
Anosognosia
Severe denial or awareness fo the presence or severity of one’s neurologic defect or illness
Pt may deny that a paretic limb belongs to them or lie about why an extremity does not move as it should
Highest level of SCI that would be able to drive an adapted van
C6
Positive predictive value =
estimates prob that a person who tests pos on screening test actually has the condition
TRUE POS
Bobath =
NDT
Pt learns to control movement through functional activities that promote normal mvmnt patterns that integrate function
Focused on reinforcing normal mvmnt through key points of control and avoiding all reflex movement patterns and associated reactions
Kabat, Knott, and Voss approach =
Based on premise that stronger parts of the body are utilized to stimulate and strengthen weaker parts
Rood approach =
Based on sherrington and reflex model
Believed that all motor output was result of both past and present sensory input
Introduced sensory stimulation to facilitate or inhibit responses - like icing
Brunnstrom approach =
Created and defined the term synergy and initially encouraged the use of synergy patterns during rehab
Sympathetic pupil response
Dilation
Parasympathetic pupil response
Constriction
Raimiste’s phenomenon
Involved LE abducts or adducts with applied resistance to the uninvolved LE in the same direction
Souques’ phenomenon
Pt raises involved UE above 100 deg with elbow ext and leads to extension and abd of involved fingers
Coordination synkinesis
Voluntary cx of certain mm groups on involved side that in turn gives rise to involuntary cx of synergistic mm
Homolateral synkinesis
Mutual dependency btw the involved UE and LE
See mass flexion of LE as apply resistance to elbow flexion on ipsilateral side
Brachial plexus - Lateral cord gives off what
Musculocutaneous nerve
Median nerve
Lateral pectoral nerve
Brachial plexus - Posterior cord gives off what
Axillary nerve
Radial nerve
Thoracodorsal nerve
Upper and lower subscapular nerves
Brachial plexus - Medial cord gives off what
Ulnar nerve
Median nerve
Medial pectoral nerve
Weight gain can be associated with what medical conditions
Hypothyroidism Cushings syndrome Organ disease CHF Essential fatty acid deficiencies Blood sugar imbalance
Menieres s/s
Overaccumulation of endoymph due to lack of absorption
Hearing Loss
Tinnitus
Vertigo from 30 min to 24 hrs
Digitalis - common uses
