Q

A

B: a CNS problem

31
Q

Your 69 yo pt has excessive thoracic kyphosis and FHP and reports B symmetrical LBP of several weeks duration. He says he started working as a WalMart greeter a few months ago, which involves standing on his feet several hours per shift. His pain is worst in standing, best with reclining in his armchair. Sitting in an upright chair is also uncomfortable but not as bad as standing. He thinks his posture has deteriorated since starting this job. How can you decide where his postural problem are relevant to his LBP?
A: Assess baseline symp, have him actively improve his standing posture with instructions, then reassess symp.
B: Assess baseline symp, have him actively improve his sitting posture with instructions, then reassess symp.
C: Do the two stage treadmill test to look for reproduction of symp which would suggest spinal stenosis
D: Instruct him to put a pillow or lumbar roll in his lumbar spine in the recliner and then reassess the effect next visit.

A

A: Assess baseline symp, have him actively improve his standing posture with instructions, then reassess symp.

32
Q 
Joe has LB and R leg P and stands with his shoulders level but to the L of his pelvis. Which of the following describes this observation?
A: L lateral shift, which is typical 
B: L lateral shift, which is atypical 
C: R lateral shift, which is typical 
D: R lateral shift, which is atypical
A

A: L lateral shift, which is typical

33
Q

Joe says that he started “standing crooked” a few days ado when his back and R calf P began but that he cant correct it when you cue him to do so. What should you do to decide if this is a relevant lateral shift?
A: I don’t need to do anything bc the P and shift started at the same time which automatically makes it relevant
B: Manually correct the shift and if that improves his back pain then it is relevant
C: Manually correct the shift and if his calf pain diminishes by the next visit then it is relevant
D: Manually correct the shift and if his distal calf pain diminishes but the proximal calf pain remain the same then it is relevant

A

D: Manually correct the shift and if his distal calf pain diminishes but the proximal calf pain remain the same then it is relevant

34
Q 
Before Joe leaves treatment your CI reminds you to instruct Joe in home shift correction since you got such good results with manual shift correction today. The instructions for Joe should be to stand with his \_\_\_\_ arm against the wall with the elbow at 90* and slide his hips to the \_\_\_\_. 
A: R, R
B: R, L
C: L, L
D: L, R
A

C: L, L

35
Q

If Joe’s leg P increased with shift correction but his back pain improves, the best course of action would be to
A: stop the standing shift correction and try the unloaded shift
B: Teach him self shit correction for his HEP
C: Continue the shift until overcorrection has been achieved and reassess
D: Start the prone progression by placing him over 2-3 pillow

A

A: stop the standing shift correction and try the unloaded shift

36
Q

The lumbar quadrant is best used in pt with LBP
A: and hip P to help you decide if you should further evaluate the lumbar spine
B: to help rule in SIJ as a possible contributing source
C: that increased with ext and increased with ips flexion to rule in spondylosis
D: rule out spinal stenosis when cont flexion and flexion each increase P

A

A: and hip P to help you decide if you should further evaluate the lumbar spine

37
Q

During slump testing, you tell the pt to slump and she drops her face toward her lap at the same time she rounds her spine. She says this increased her buttock pain. This is
A: OK since dropping her head fwd is the next step anyways and the therapist should proceed with extending the knee to continue the test
B: Not OK since flexing the head forward puts the nervous system on slack and will limit her knee ext range
C: Not OK since neurodynamic tests must be done in a careful stepwise progression in order to make the appropriate assessment
D: OK since next flexion tells me that the pain has a neurodynamic source, I can skip the rest if the slump test and call it (+)

A

C: Not OK since neurodynamic tests must be done in a careful stepwise progression in order to make the appropriate assessment

38
Q

You pt reports R buttock and thigh pain when doing downward dog since she started trying to use yoga DVD at home to rehab from a mild R hamstring strain after resting it for a couple of months by doing no exercise or recreational activity. She L SLR is 105* (with DF) and (-). Her R SLR is 90* and DF increases her familiar P. What is your assessment of these results?
A: Her R SLR is (+) for neurodynamic contribution to her pain
B: Her R SLR is also (+) since her SLR ROM is within normal limits
C: It is unclear until a sensitizing maneuver has been done to clarify HS from neurodynaics
D: SLR is not an appropriate test; slump is better for this type of suspected neurodynamic problem.

A

A: Her R SLR is (+) for neurodynamic contribution to her pain

39
Q

Why is it important to evaluate the hip in a pt with LBP?

A

Compensation for hip P or ROM

or visa versa

40
Q 
Which of the following is NOT a common S/S of hip OA
A: a report of lateral hip pain
B: significant limitation of hip IR
C: painful arc during active SLR
D: (+) Scour test, esp loaded.
A

C: painful arc during active SLR
