Rehab 1 MT Review (from PAS) Flashcards
What is the purpose of rehabilitation in a chiropractic office?
Used in conjunction with the chiropractic adjustments. Studies have shown that having a patient be active in their treatment will help increase the likelihood that they will improve during your care.
Name the 3 energy transfer systems.
- Phosphagen System (ATP-PC)
- Anaerobic Glycolytic/ Lactic Acid Cycle System
- Oxidative Phosphorylation System
What is the Phosphagen System’s (ATP-PC) primary fuel source?
Anaerobic energy system in which ATP is manufactured when phosphocreatine is broken down.
What is the Anaerobic Glycolytic/ Lactic Acid Cycle System’s primary fuel source?
Partial break down of sugar, creating lactic acid by-product.
What is the Oxidative Phosphorylation System’s primary fuel source?
Aerobic: Glycolysis + Krebs + Oxidative Phosphorylation
Describe the ATP-PC System.
Phosphocreatine is stored in muscle cells and when it gets broken down, a large amount of energy is released. The muscle stores are very small, but the advantage of this system is that energy is available very rapidly.
Describe the Anaerobic Glycolytic System/ Lactic Acid System.
Glycosis refers to the breakdown of sugar to supple the necessary energy from which ATP is manufactured. Enzymes help break down glucose and form lactic acid, which accumulates in the muscles. This causes the blood pH to lower, causing a temporary muscle fatigue. This system is limited by the fact that it can only produce a few ATP and cannot be relied on for extended periods of time. However, like the ATP-PC system, energy is rapid available.
Describe the Oxidative Phosphorylation System. (Aerobic: Glycosis + Krebs + Oxidative Phosphorylation)
This is the last stage of the aerobic system, following glycolysis and the Krebs cycle, and produces the greatest yield of 34 ATP molecules.
Oxygen is the final acceptor of the electrons and hydrogen ions that produce water and and the ADP gets phosphorylated to produce ATP. This occurs in the mitochondria.
Describe the Aerobic System stages.
Stage 1: Glycolysis - production of 2 ATP, 2 NAD, 2 pyruvate within the cytoplasm.
Stage 2: Krebs Cycle - production of 1 ATP, 1 CO2, 3 NAD, and 1 FAD molecule per cycle.
However, for each molecule of glucose/pyruvate that enters the cycle, 2 cycles of Krebs are necessary. This process in the cell’s mitochondria.
Stage 3: Oxidative Phosphorylation - This is the last stage of the aerobic system, following glycolysis and the Krebs cycle, and produces the greatest yield of 34 ATP molecules.
Oxygen is the final acceptor of the electrons and hydrogen ions that produce water and and the ADP gets phosphorylated to produce ATP. This occurs in the mitochondria.
