SMT-1 Manual, pgs 72-78 Flashcards
According to Zito et al 2006 were all hypomobile cervical joints painful?
No, not all hypomobile cervical joints were painful
According to Zito et al 2006 were all painful cervical joints hypomobile?
Yes, all painful joints on PPIVM testing were hypomobile
What group in Zito 2006 had increased muscle tightness?
Cervicogenic headache group
What group in Zito 2006 demonstrated poorer performance at 26, 28, and 30 mmHG in the CCFT?
Cervicogenic headache group
In Zito 2006 how did the authors discriminate CGH from other headaches? How successful were they?
C1-C2 painful and hypomobile on PPIVM was able to discriminate CGH group from migraine and control subjects with 80% sensitivity
According to Boddeck 2005, is the origin of a headache able to be distinguished?
No because trigeminal muscles can
Zito 2006 found CGH to have a neural component when U/LE NTPT testing was added. What other author found this to be true?
Jull 2001 found 10% of 200 CGH’s to have neural component
According to Hall & Robinson 2004 comparing CGH to asymptomatic patients, which group had decreased flexion rotation on testing?
CGH group 24/28 patients, with primary motion segment of C1-C2. 4/28 CGH patients had primary motion segment of C2-C3. No asymptomatic patients had positive flexion-rotation test
In Hall & Robinson 2004 were active ROM in cardinal planes different between CGH and asymptomatic groups?
NO - meaning the adjacent levels compensate
What were the average AROM movements in flexion rotation between groups reported in Hall & Robinson 2004?
44 degree in asymptomatic patients and 28 degrees in CGH group
What did the Pearson’s correlation test indicate in Hall & Robinson 2004?
The greater the restriction in flexion-rotation test then the more severe the headache would be in terms of frequency, duration, and intensity
What cervical segment was most symptomatic in Hall & Robinson 2004?
C1-C2 motion segment was the most frequent symptomatic cervical motion segment in CGH
The results regarding primary affected motion segment in CGH stated in Hall & Robinson 2004 are in agreement with reports from what author?
Jull et al 1997
The results regarding primary affected motion segment in CGH stated in Hall & Robinson 2004 are in contrast with reports from what author?
Bogduk 2005 who implicated C2-3
According to Schwartz 1998 what is the most common type of headache?
Tension type headache
According to Rasmussen 1991, what is the lifetime gender prevalence for TTH in the general population?
69% of men and 88% of women
According to the IHS, what is the definition of chronic TTH?
Headache at least 15 days a month for at least 6 months
According to systematic review by Lenssinck et al 2004 is there sufficient evidence to support or refute SMT for TTH?
NO - insufficient evidence to support or refute
Von Piekartz et al 2006 found what neurodynamic component in children with CGH?
36 degree of neck flexion during long sitting slump test for CGH patients, versus 85 degree for migraines, and 101 degree for control group
