Review I

Question 1

10 step screen

Answer 1

1  gait posture
2 standing spine sidebending test
3 standing flexion test
4 seated flexion test
5 seated upper extremity motion
6 seated trunk test
7 seated cervical motion
8 supine thoracic cage motion
9 lower extremity motion
10 pelvis landmarks

Question 2

brief screen

Answer 2

**for competencies and rotations

1 posture
2 TART changes - cervical, thoracic, lumbar
3 standing flexion test
4 seated flexion test

Question 3

posture

Answer 3

step 1 of brief screen

-major landmarks - shoulder height, iliac crest, popliteal crease, arch, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis

Question 4

cervical spine

Answer 4

7 vertebrae
lordotic curve
transverse foramina - vertebral a

articular pillar - between transverse process and spinous process
-correlated to facet joint

Question 5

C1

Answer 5

no spinous process

first spinous process - C2

Question 6

hyoid bone

Answer 6

C3

Question 7

thyroid cartilage

Answer 7

anterior to C4-5

Question 8

cricoid cartilage

Answer 8

C6

Question 9

OA joint

Answer 9

occiput on atlas (C1)

flexion and extension - major

sidebending/rotation - minor

sidebending and rotation - opposite

Question 10

sidebending and rotation at OA

Answer 10

opposite directions

Question 11

diagnosis of OA joint

Answer 11

middle finger - posterior to occipital condyles

• index on articular pillar
• translation for sidebending
• rotation - anterior pressure

Question 12

AA joint

Answer 12

motion of atlas on axis
C1 on C2

major - rotation

minor - flexion/extension and sidebending

Question 13

diagnosis of AA

Answer 13

middle fingers over articular pillars of atlas
-index fingers on articular pillars of axis

flex lower C spine
-then introduce rotation

Question 14

C2-7

Answer 14

rotation and sidebending - same side

facets BUM - backwards, upward, medial

bodies - have uncinate processes (joints of lushcka)

Question 15

diagnosing C2-7

Answer 15

middle fingers - articular processes

index fingers - vertebra below to stabilize

Question 16

TART

Answer 16

texture of tissue
asymmetry
restriction of motion
tenderness

Question 17

vetebral segment

Answer 17

two adjacent vertebrae with their associated IV disk, arthrodial, ligamentous, muscular, vascular, lymph, and neural elements

somatic dysfunction of T7-8
-named T7

Question 18

fryettes laws

Answer 18

1 neutral lumbar or thoracic - sidebending and rotation opposite

2 flexed/extended lumbar or thoracic - sidebending and rotation same side

3 motion in any plane of motion - modify movement of that segment in other planes of motino

Question 19

C7 spinous process

Answer 19

most prominent

Question 20

superior angle of scapula

Answer 20

T2

Question 21

scapular spine

Answer 21

T3

Question 22

inferior angle of scapula

Answer 22

T7

Question 23

superior iliac crest

Answer 23

T4

Question 24

rule of threes

Answer 24

1-3 - spinous process same level of transverse
4-6 - spinous process half step below transverse
7-9 - spinous process full step below transverse
10 - spinous process same level of transverse
11 - spinous process half step below transverse
12 - spinous process full step below transverse

full step** - level of transverse of vertebrae below

Question 25

red reflex

Answer 25

stays red after palpation

Question 26

non-dysfunctional bone

Answer 26

spongy

Question 27

type 1 dysfunction

Answer 27

neutral

-sidebending / rotation

Question 28

type 2 dysfunction

Answer 28

non-neutral

-rotation / sidebending

Question 29

individual segmental diagnosis

Answer 29

not considered in medical-legal community

so T7FRRSR is just “somatic dysfunction of thoracic spine”
