Setup Questions Flashcards
Patient is prone and you are contacting the right articular pillar of C3 while standing on the left side of the table. Upon delivering a P-A thrust with a lateral index contact, what listing would you be correcting for?
- RP body of C3
- LP body of C3
- C3 fixed in left rotation
- LI body of C3
RP body of C3
Upon palpation, you determine there is a posterior articular pillar on the right at C3.
What listing and adjustive setup would be correct for this presentation?
C3 right rotation malposition and supine articular pillar push
Patient presents with a right AI sacrum.
What setup would correct for this listing?
Patient is side lying with their right side down; thenar contact is applied to the left aspect of the sacral apex; a P-A, L-M, and S-I force is applied with counterclockwise torque
A flexion malposition is most likely associated with which listing?
Extension restriction
Which listing below is the best fit for a vertebrae that palpates as having a posterior TP on the right?
- PR
- RRR
- RRM
- LP body
RRM
Upon prone motion palpation of the thoracic spine, you determine an increase in stiffness in the mid thoracic spine. You proceed to end feel palpation and determine that there is an extension restriction at the T4/T5 motion segment.
Which adjustive setup (supine) is correct based on these findings?
Supine open hand (possibly thenar digital contact) TP push, contacting TPs of T5
Which of the following adjustive setups would correct for a PI body listing of T8?
- Patient supine, using a thenar digital contact of the TPs of T9 with a P-A thrust
- Patient prone, using a bilateral 5th MCP contact of the TPs of T8 with P-A thrust
- Patient supine, using thenar/digital contact of the TPs of T8 with a P-A and S-I thrust
- Patient prone using a bilateral crossed hypothenar contact of the TPs of T8 with a P-A thrust
Patient supine, using thenar/digital contact of the TPs of T8 with a P-A and S-I thrust
Your patient presents with radiating right arm pain that travels to the tip of the thumb and index finger. The patient states that the pain comes and goes but tends to be worse with various arm and hand movements. Upon examination, you find positive cervical neutral, lateral, and rotary compression tests that all reproduced the right arm pain. Active and passive lateral flexion to the right also reproduces that right arm pain. Upon palpation you note various restrictions in the cervical spine.
Which adjustment would most likely reduce the likelihood of an exacerbation of symptoms based on the clinical presentation?
Prone index articular pillar push that produces left lateral flexion and right rotation
Patient is right side lying (right side down). Your superior hand contacts the ___ and your inferior hand contacts the ___ in order to correct for a right SI extension restriction
superior hand contacts the left shoulder creating distraction of the torso and your inferior hand contacts the sacral apex
Given an AI sacrum on the right, what would be the most appropriate contact and vector for correction?
Left sacral apex; L-M, P-A, and S-I with torque
What is the setup and contact for a side lying hypothenar spinous pull adjustment to correct for an L3/L4 left rotation restriction?
Right side up; contact L3 spinous process
In a prone thumb spinous push with head assist adjustment to correct for a T1/T2 left rotation restriction, what is the correct vector of correction?
Left to right to the T1 spinous process
What is the correct setup, contact, and vector for a side lying hypothenar spinous push adjustment to correct for an L3/L4 left rotation restriction?
Left side up; contact the L3 spinous; left to right vector
A right lateral flexion restriction is most likely associated with which static listing?
LI
T9 PR is the same as which motion listing?
Right rotation restriction
