Rehab Concepts Flashcards
How many weeks to increase strength (ie <3/5 to 3/5)?
8 weeks
What does SMART stand for?
Specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, time based
Lateral collateral ligament of the shoulder
Infraspinatus
Only normal muscle tendon end feel in the dog
Tarsal flexion
Three muscle insertions on the greater tubercle from medial to lateral
SIT - supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor
Latissimus dorsi - 3 actions and how to stretch.
Shoulder flexion, adduction, internal rotation
Only normal bony end feel in dog
Elbow extension
Lateral collateral ligament of shoulder
Infraspinatus
3 muscles of pes anserinus
Cranial medial tibial
Say grace before tea - sartorius, gracilis, semitendinosis
Forearm flexor where pathology is often seen
Flexor carpi ulnaris: medial epicondyle (o), caudal border and medial surface olecranon (o), accessory carpal bone (I)
3 structures of concern for medial shoulder instability
Glenohumeral ligament, subscap tendon, shoulder joint capsule
Four quadrants of education in rehab
Pain relief, nutrition, lifestyle, rehab
Hypogastric nerve - location, function
L1-L5, sympathetic, detrusor relaxation, contraction of smooth muscle of internal urethral sphincter
Pelvic nerve
S1-S3, parasympathetic, detrusor contraction, passive opening internal urethral sphincter.
Pudendal nerve
S1-S3, somatic, external urethral sphinter
Shockwave vs ultrasound
Shockwave: no thermal effect, min tissue absorption, low frequency
Ultrasound: thermal effects, tissue absorption, high frequency wave
Types of pressure waves (shockwave therapy)
Electro-hydraulic (large pressure and focal volume), electro-magnetic (smaller focused volume), piezo electric (smaller treatment area).
Factors affecting SW on tissues
1 energy density (depth of tx)
2 speed of delivery (shocks/sec)
3 impedance at different surfaces (dense tissue maintains speed/propagation)
4 compression, tension, cavitation
Typical wavelength for therapeutic lasers
600-950nm
How do you express “dose” for laser?
J/cm^2 or total dose (J)
Dosing of laser is based on____
Acuity of injury.
Lower dose for wound healing
Higher dose to decrease inflammation
Higher dose for chronic injury
Dose laser for superficial wound healing
600nm, 1-2J/cm^2
Laser dosing for acute injury (pain, heat, swelling and up to 72 hours)
600nm for superficial (skin and 800-900 nm for deep (skin -3+cm),
6-8j/cm^2
Laser dose for subacute injury (proliferative phase of healing)
600nm for superficial and 800-900nm for deep, 3-5 J/cm^2
Laser dose for chronic (remodeling and maturation phase of healing)
600nm for superficial, 800-900nm for deep (skin to 3+ cm), 5-8J/cm^2
