Random Things Flashcards
10 step screening?
- gait analysis/postural assessment
- lower extremity mobility, squat test
- sidebending
- standing flexion test/scoliosis screen
- seated flexion test
- spine mobility test
- upper extremity mobility test
- rib cage mobility test
- LE mobility test - hamstrings and fabere
- supine pelvic and LE symmetry tests
brief screening exam
- Posture: assess major landmarks (shoulder heights, iliac crest heights, popliteal creases, arches, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, etc.)
- Scan for TART changes in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. If TART changes are present, use segmental motion testing to check for vertebral somatic dysfunction
- Standing flexion test. If positive, check pelvic landmarks (ASIS, PSIS, pubic symphysis) for pelvic somatic dysfunction
- Seated flexion test. If positive, check sacral landmarks (sacral sulci, ILAs, may confirm laterality with backward bending test and pelvic rock) for sacral somatic dysfunction.
sinus tachycardia?
sympathetic right sided fibers pass deep to right cardiac plexus to go to SA node: Right T1-5
Ventricular tachycardia? Ventricular fibrillation?
left sided cardiac plexus fiber of T1-5 (innervates the AV node)
Look at different techniques and contraindications
do it now! slide 17 on review
anterior wall MI dysfunction?
T 2-3 on left
inferior wall MI?
C2 and cranial base (vagus)
transposition of Great arteries?
most common finding is severe cyanosis (not affected by crying)
tachypnea w/ resp rates that are greater than 60 bpm
murmurs are not prominent unless a VSD or left ventricular outflow obstruction is present
innocent murmurs?
sensitive (changes with position/respiration)
Short duration (not holosystolic)
Single (no associated chicks or gallops)
Small (murmur limited to a small area and nonradiating)
Soft (low amplitude)
Sweet (not harsh sounding)
Systolic (occurs during and is limited to systole)
articulatory technique
(LVHA)
- patient relaxed, physician uses body weight and leverage to apply force to tx area, engage restrictive barrier, gentle firm pressure against restrictive barrier to carry the body past the point
- maintenance of this position for 1-2 seconds
- reengagement of new restrictive barrier
useful for SD’s in joints, periarticular tissues
CIs: fracture, dislocation, neurologic entrapment syndrome, serious vascular compromise, local infection
BLT- balanced ligamentous tension
- disengagement/decompression of area until motion felt
- exagerration of dysfunctional pattern
- balancing of ligaments in a position of equal tension among joints until release of the CRI is palpated
indications: contracted musculature, release tehered structures, restore symmetry, strained ligaments
absolute CIs: loack of pt. consent, absence of dysf.
crimping
configuriation of fibers that make up a ligmanet and allow it to wrok as a spring, checking and balancing pressure applied to joint
seen in BLT
absolute CI’s of CS?
absence of SD
lack of consent
relative: vertebral artery disease, osteoporosis, pathologic limitations
FPR - facilitated positional release
- anatomical neutrality in dysfunctiona tissue (freedom of motion) then apply compressive/torsional activating force for 5-15 seconds, then moved against dysfunction to position of ease
indications: good for mm. hypertonicicty and restricted ROM
absolute CI’s: no SD, hip prosthetic, shoulder path, acute/chronic dislocation, recent/acute trauma
HVLA
don’t thrust if it is uncomfortable, neuro sx, rubbery feel
indications: SD’s with firm, distinct barriers
absolute CI’s: pt. consent, no SD, rheumatoid arthritis
lymphatic technique
Remove impediments to lymphatic flow starting centrally and moving peripherally, THEN move distal to proximal
absolute CIS: no SD, no consent, aneuresis if not on dialysis, necrotizing fasciitis
steps of BLT?
disengage, exaggerate, balance
AT still’s birth?

absolute CI’s of MFR?
no SD, no consent, acute fractures, open wounds, dermatitis, acute thermal injury
stretching/traction
pulling or pressing tissues along longitudinal axis
pressing tissues along latitudinal axis: perpendeicular to bely of mm.
kneading
inhibition
forces applied superficial to deep
effleurage
superficial lymph tech: light stroking from distal to proximal
petrissage
skin rolling/squeezing
