Rom And Muscle Stuff Flashcards
If pain is noticed at the end of passive ROM what would be the likely culprit?
Primarily ligament sprain and/or bone
What might cause a decreased active range of movement?
Subluxation complex Muscle spasm Muscle strain Ligament sprain General arthritic condition Post surgical condition Obesity
What would cause an abrupt stop when two hard surfaces meet?
Bone to bone
What causes a leathery slight give at the end of passive ROM?
Capsular end feel
What is a springy block? In regards to passive ROM
Usually a pathologic end-feel, generally representing an intraarticular displacement
What is the name for when there is no further joint movement in passive ROM?
Tissue approximation
What causes an empty feel during passive ROM?
Usually pathological
What is the name for Where the doctor utilizes enough weight to over power the patient’s muscle. Allowing comparison of one side to the other to determine if a weakness exists unilaterally?
Break method
During the break method the patient is painless and strong, this indicates what?
Normal
During the break method the patient is painful and strong, this indicates?
Minor strain of grade 1 strain
During the break method the patient is painless and weak, what does this indicate?
Possible neurological injury or complete rupture of the muscular attachment or grade 3 strain
During the break method the patient is painful and weak, what does this indicate?
Major strain of muscle or tendon or grade 2 strain
When grading muscle strength what indicates a 0 rating?
No muscle contraction
When grading muscle strength what indicates a 1 rating?
A trace of contraction
0-10% of normal contraction, cannot overcome gravity
When grading muscle strength what indicates a rating of 2?
Movement without gravity
11-25% of normal movement, cannot overcome gravity
When grading muscle strength what indicates a rating of 3?
Movement against gravity
26-50% of normal movement, is able to overcome gravity
When grading muscle strength what indicates a rating of 4?
Movement against gravity plus variable resistance
51-75% of normal movement
When grading muscle strength what indicates a rating of 5?
Movement against gravity plus maximum resistance
76-100% of normal movement
What indicates a first degree ligament sprain?
Minimal extent of failure, no laxity felt on stress test
< 1/3 of fibers torn
Retained or slightly decreased strength
What indicates a second degree ligament sprain?
Partial extent of failure, mild to moderate laxity noted on stress test
> 1/3 but < 2/3 of fibers torn
Marked decrease in strength
What indicates a third degree ligament sprain?
Complete extent of failure, extreme laxity noted on stress test
> than 2/3 of the fibers torn
Little to no residual strength
