Q

brief screening exam

A
  1. Posture: assess major landmarks (shoulder heights, iliac crest heights, popliteal creases, arches, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, etc.)
  2. 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
  3. Standing flexion test. If positive, check pelvic landmarks (ASIS, PSIS, pubic symphysis) for pelvic somatic dysfunction
  4. 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.

Q

articulatory technique

A

(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

more transverse angulation of rib head and tubercle

32
Q

ribs 6-10:
rib head and tubercle angulation is more anterioposterior
motion in coronal plane = “bucket handle” motion

suspect heart failure

36
Q

hear S4?

37
Q

upper thoracic dysfunction? and MI?

A

first order EKG and troponin levels
- don’t treat the dysfunction, b/c could increase the sympathetic tone

  • if you were to treat it however, then it would balance the autonomics: with MI you see increased heart rate and increased SV, by treating this you can decrease HR and SV
38
Q

what to start first for HTN?

A

ACEI, ARB, CCB

39
Q

exercise is important in CHF fn why?

A

increases ANS fn, regional blood flow, endothelial function, skeletal mm. function, quality of life

  • exercise training can improve exercise duration as much as pharm agents
40
Q

patient isn’t actively doing anything, its a direct technique with passive forces (patient isn’t doing anything actively)

41
Q

MFR

A

direct or indirect/ active or passive

42
Q

always reference motion of vertebrae on which neighboring vertebrae?

A

always reference of T6 on T7: it is referenced to the vertebrae below (vertebral units are named for their superior vertebra)

motion is the superior segment on the inferior segment

43
Q

what can be related to GU infection and low back pain?

A

Type 1 = not related to viscerosomatics

*** Sacral dysfunction = PS mediated visceral-somatic reflex

44
Q

piriformis TP

A

prone ,flex 135 degrees, abducted, externally rotate right hip

(if pregnant- then place in the supine )

45
Q

leukocyte esterase

A

most common seen in noncomplicated cystitis

46
Q

rib raising?

A

can balance autonomics and can also address rib cage motion after surgery–> improves breathing and lymphatic flow

  • application of lateral and anterior pressure *
47
Q

planes:

A

coronal: anterior and posterior
sagittal: right and left
transverse: upper and lower

48
Q

functional scoliosis

A

adaptable: get improvements with specific motions: see rib hump on forward bending that resolves when upright
vs. chronic/structural scoliosis - see long term adaptation with tissue changes

49
Q

seated flexion test? what axis and region are tested?

A

axis: sacroiliac - sacrum moving on illium, when seated immobilizes the illium

body region: sacrum

50
Q

L5 rules do not apply with?

A

sacral sheers

L5 ROSS (rotates opposite, sidebends same side as axis)

51
Q

spring test vs. phsyiologic torsion?

A

physiologic: - spring test: forward sacral torsion: R on R
pathologic: + spring test: backward sacral torsion: L on R

52
