28
Q

T or F: The procedure of amputation can be determined by the PT

A

False (Determined by surgeon)

29
Q

Consideration for length of residual limb is what should be _

A

removed

30
Q

Identify: If there is enough blood supply in the area to be viable enough to support the limb and musculature left behind

A

Vascularization

31
Q

Identify the 3 things to consider in the procedure for amputation

A
  1. Length of residual limb
  2. Vascularization
  3. Prosthetic fitting
32
Q

Identify: Removed everything at the level of amputation (skin bones)

A

Open

33
Q

Identify: Cuts off the bone but there’s a remaining skin flap left behind to cover the parts that were left

A

Closed

34
Q

Enumerate the 4 types of skin flaps

A
  1. Sagittal
  2. Posterior
  3. Skewed
  4. Fishmouth
35
Q

Identify: Suture on the frontal plane

A

Fishmouth

36
Q

Identify: Diagonal, Anterior and posterior flap sutured

A

Skewed

37
Q

Identify: There is skin left on the posterior side and it is pulled to cover the remaining parts.

A

Posterior

38
Q

If distal part is amputated, it will be free. It may protract then the muscle will not be usable anymore

A. First statement is true, second statement is false
B. Second statement is true, first statement is false
C. Both statements are true
D. Both statements are false

A

A

it may retract

39
Q

Identify: muscle to muscle

A

Myoplasty

40
Q

Identify: muscle to fascia

A

Myofascial

41
Q

Identify: muscle to bone (residual part of limb)

A

Myodesis

42
Q

Identify: tendon is attached to the bone if may residual part pa ng same muscle

A

Tenodesis

43
Q

Once healed, you can see the preserved movement/function of the muscles. When considering the healing of amputations it is not just the healing of the soft tissues but also will have the bone

A. First statement is true, second statement is false
B. Second statement is true, first statement is false
C. Both statements are true
D. Both statements are false

A

C

44
Q

Resistance exercises will not be hard and painful for the patient when the bone is healed. Muscle may still produce their movement but can do different function/action compared to the previous one.

A. First statement is true, second statement is false
B. Second statement is true, first statement is false
C. Both statements are true
D. Both statements are false

A

B

Resistance exercises will be hard and painful

45
Q

If attached in a different angle = expect a different angle of pull, hence different movement. Since the muscles have different orientations and if it is attached to a muscle with an orientation different from its own then it will pull in a different way

A. First statement is true, second statement is false
B. Second statement is true, first statement is false
C. Both statements are true
D. Both statements are false

A

C

46
Q

A. First statement is true, second statement is false
B. Second statement is true, first statement is false
C. Both statements are true
D. Both statements are false

A

B

PTs determine the shape of the stump

47
Q

Important for the prosthesis to have a proper fit with the stump to avoid poor fit and irritation. Dog ears may get compressed

C. Both statements are true
D. Both statements are false

A

C

48
Q

B. Second statement is true, first statement is false
C. Both statements are true
D. Both statements are false

they can heal in a different position so it can change the shape
