Vad är Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) och vad kan det ge för symptom? Vilken typ av rehab kan vara lämplig här?
Vad?
-Degeneration with potential, eventual herniation of intervertebral disc resulting in compression of spinal nerve, nerve root, &/or spinal cord
Signs:
- Pain, soreness, stiffness
- Changes in/loss of sensation -> weakness/paralysis -> loss of deep pain
- Tends to occur at “transitional” areas of spine
Rehab:
- NMES
- LLLT
- Functional therapeutic exercises with facilitation techniques
- Aquatic therapy (swimming waterwalking)
- Balance & proprioceptive therapeutic exercises
Vad är FIBROCARTILAGINOUS EMBOLISM (FCE) & ACUTE NON-COMPRESSIVE NUCLEUS PULPOSUS EXTRUSION (ANNPE) och vad kan det ge för symptom?
- FCE: “spinal cord stroke,” a blood vessel feeding the spinal cord becomes blocked by a piece of cartilage originating from the intervertebral disc, causing neurons to malfunction
- ANNPE: a portion of healthy intervertebral disc suddenly shoots out through its encasement and collides with the spinal cord at a high velocity, causing bruising of (& sometimes significant bleeding inside) the spinal cord
Signs:
- Abrupt gait dysfunction (often when running or jumping)
- Focal, asymmetric lesion
- Rarely progresses after 12 hours
- No spinal pain
- Tends to improve over a few weeks
- Poor prognosis, if no deep pain perception
Vilken rehab kan vara lämplig vid FIBROCARTILAGINOUS EMBOLISM (FCE) & ACUTE NON-COMPRESSIVE NUCLEUS PULPOSUS EXTRUSION (ANNPE)?
- NMES
- LLLT
- Functional therapeutic exercises with facilitation techniques
- Corrective manual therapies
- Aquatic therapy (swimming water walking)
- Balance & proprioceptive therapeutic exercises
Vad är FELINE AORTIC THROMBOEMBOLISM (FATE)
AKA saddle thrombus, och vad kan det ge för symptom?
Vad?
Clot in left atrium, dislodged, & descends to ”saddle” (area where aorta meets iliac arteries) where circulation is blocked to one or both hind limbs
Signs (sudden):
- Pain

- Reduced compensatory movement strategies
• Strategies/Tactics
- Manual therapies
- NMES
- LLLT
- Functional therapeutic exercises with facilitation techniques
- Corrective manual therapies
- Aquatic therapy (swimming water walking)
- Balance & proprioceptive therapeutic exercises
