A

ROUND BACK is a decreased pelvic inclination with thoracolumbar or thoracic kyphosis

Most forms of kyphosis show a DECREASED PELVIC INCLINATION in order to compensate and maintain the body’s CENTER OF GRAVITY

24
Q

_ _ is the most common structural kyphosis in adolescents but can occur in adults. Etiology _ _ .

A

SCHEUERMANN’S DISEASE is the most common structural kyphosis in adolescents . . .

Etiology IS UNKNOWN

25
Q

_ _ is a localized, sharp, posterior angulation called a _, it is usually structural and often results from and anterior wedging of the body of one or two thoracic vertebrae. Pelvic inclination is usually _.

A

HUMP BACK is a localized sharp, posterior angulation called a GIBBUS, it is usually structural . . . .

Pelvic inclination is usually NORMAL

26
Q

_ _ is a decreased pelvic inclination (20 degrees) with a mobile spine. It is similar to round back, except the the thoracic spine remains mobile and is able to compensate for altered center or gravity. Therefore it does not have the appearance of an _ _ _.

A

FLAT BACK is decreased pelvic inclination with a mobile spine

Therefore it does not have the appearance of an EXCESSIVE KYPHOTIC CURVE

27
Q

A _ _ results from postmenopausal osteoporosis. Due to the OA _ _ occurs to several vertebrae usually in the upper to middle thoracic spine causing _ and contributing to a decrease in _.

A

A DOWAGER’S HUMP results from postmenopausal OA

Due to the OA ANTERIOR WEDGING occurs to several vertebrae usually in the upper and middle thoracic spine causing SCOLIOSIS and contributing to a decrease in HEIGHT

28
Q

Scoliosis is a deformity in which there are one or more _ _ of the _ or _ spine. What are the 2 types?

A

Scoliosis is a deformity in which there are one or more LATERAL CURVATURES of the LUMBAR OR THORACIC spine

Two types:
- non-structural & structural

29
Q

The scoliosis curve pattern is designated according to the _ of the _ and the _ of the convexity.

A

Pattern is designated according to the LEVEL of the CURVE and the DIRECTION of the convexity

30
Q

For a thoracic curve the apex is between _ and _. A thoracolumbar curve has an apex between _ and _.

A

Thoracic curve- between T2- T11

Thoracolumbar curve- between T12- L1

31
Q

With structural scoliosis the vertebral bodies _ to the _ of the curve and become _. If the thoracic spine is involved this movement will cause the ribs on the _ side to push posteriorly causing a hump, and the spinous processes will deviate toward the _ _.

A

With structural scoliosis the vertebral bodies ROTATE to the CONVEXITY of the curve and become DISTORTED

If the thoracic spin is involved this movement will cause the ribs on the CONVEX side to push posteriorly causing a hump and the spinous processes will deviate toward the CONCAVE SIDE

32
Q

The lateral deviation may be more evident if the examiner uses a _ _ (_) from the C7 spinous process or external occipital protuberance.

With _ _ deformity the sternum projects forward and downward like the heel of a boot increasing the _ _ of the chest. This is a congenital deformity the impairs the effectiveness of _ by restricting _ _.

A

The PIGEON CHEST deformity . . . Increasing the ANTEROPOSTERIOR DIMENSION of the chest

This is a congenital deformity that impairs the effectiveness of BREATHING by restricting VENTILATION VOLUME

With a _ _ the sternum projects forward and upward so the anteroposterior diameter is increased. It is seen in pathological conditions such as _.

A

With a BARREL CHEST the sternum projects forward and upward so the. . .

It is seen in pathological conditions such as EMPHYSEMA

38
Q

The funnel chest is a _ deformity that results from the sternum being pushed _ by an overgrowth of the _. The anteroposterior dimension is _ and the _ may be displaced. On inspiration this deformity causes a _ of the sternum that affects _ and may result in _.

A

Funnel chest is a CONGENITAL deformity that results from the sternum being pushed POSTERIORLY by an overgrowth of the ribs

The anteroposterior dimension is DECREASED and the HEART may be displaced. On inspiration this deformity causes a DEPRESSION of the sternum that affects RESPIRATION and may result in KYPHOSIS

39

A

Measure the distance between the C7 and T12 spinous process in normal standing posture then measure again once movement is completed, and analyze the difference

43
Q

How can you use a measuring tape to derive the amount of movement achieved with lateral flexion and forward flexion?
