Practical Flashcards
theory
You prescribe a passive stretch for your client’s tight right multifidi. What position are they holding during this exercise?
Right rotaion
The right SCM is tight. What position might the clients head be in during postural assessment?
Flexed and left rotated
A CONGENITAL condition involving contracture of the SCM muscle is known as:
Torticollis
Longus Capitis is tight on the left. Which dysfunction might this create?
FRSlt
RCP Minor and OCS are tight on the left, Which assessment outcome would be found?
right side bending restriction of CO from flexed position
Which screening test may be positive due to hypertonicity of the Ant. scalene?
How would you verify that the muscle is hypertonic?
Which cervical dysfunction would present if the OCI muscle was tight?
Describe the Isometric Intrinsic Treatment for this muscle.
Obliques cap infer. Would present right rotation restriction of c1. Isometric intrinsic treatment used would be to rotate patient to the right while patient is looking left to contract this muscle.
C5 is extended and you feel restriction in left side bending. Which dysfunction is present?
FRSrt
When assessing CO, what position is the lower cervical in?
Neutral
Type 1/ Neutral dysfunctions present with?
a number of vertebrae that side bend in one direction and rotate in the opposite.
CO is flexed and you note a restriction in right side bending. Which dysfunction is presenting?
ERSlt
Which conditions are assessed at CO?
ERS and FRS
The assessment outcome associated to tightness of the Longus Colli is which of the following?
FRS of Lower Cervical
VBI test is positive. What is the correct protocol for the therapist to follow?
Maintain the client’s neck and head in neutral for the duration of the assessment and treatment
C2-C7 are classified as the lower cervical in Practical Theory because we assess all of these segments the same way. T or F
