SMT 361-420 Flashcards
- What did Haskins et al 2012 concluded regarding CPR’s and LBP ?
- evidence did not support clinical application -only 2 have progressed to the validation process
- No rule has ever been investigated for clinical impact
- What were Flynn et al 2002 clinical predictors rules?
Duration of sxs <16 d FABQ <19 L/s hypomobility on spring testing one hip >35* IR NO sxs distal to knee
- But what was the only tech that Flynn et al 2002 applied to?
Chicago
- Does Chicago tech impact the Lumbar spine?
there is no evidence to suggest that it does not. Thus it may and is not specific to the SIJ
- What was Flynn et al 2002 success rate for random manip for w/non radic LBP?
45% so random manip could work 45% of the time
- What inc. the % of success from 45% -95%? (Flynn 2002)
4 out 5 predictors
397.Who validated Flynn et al 2002?
Child et al 2004
- Results ? (Flynn 2002)
pt’s with + CPR had 95% success rate chance with HVLAT, +LR 24.38
- But who were these results valid for? (Flynn 2002)
Military, only used Chicago, only 30 % follow up
- what did Cleland et al 2006 find using Flynn et al 2002 CPR’s ?
91.7 % had successful outcomes with in 2 tx of lateral recumbent lumbar roll HVLAT
- How did the results relate to CPR identification ?
Identified pt with LBP to benefit from any HVLA directed toward lumbar spine (Chicago or lateral recumbent roll)
- According to Flynn et al 2002 what was the best single predictor of success with manip.?
Duration of symptoms
- Who performed an independent evaluation of the external validity Childs eval 2004?
Hancock et al 2004
- Why?
- CPRs had not been Indp. evaluated by other authors
- CPR’s only in US Air force not generalization
- Using Flynn et al 2002 criteria did Hancock et al 2008 find the CPR’s identified those pt’s more likely to respond to SMT?
No CPR’s were no better than chance in identifying its with acute - non specific LBP who would most likely respond to SMT
- What was wrong with Hancock et al 2008 method ?
97% only received non thrust mob only 5% got HVLA
- Diferences b/w Childs et al 2004 & Hancock et al 2008 duration symptoms ?
Childs et al 2004 vs Hancock et al 2008. 27 days Childs vs 5 days hancock
- what was the setting for question 407 (Childs vs Hancock)
Military Childs vs P=private practice hancock
- Treatment Duration? (Childs vs Hancock)
2 Childs vs 8-12 hancock
- Loss to follow up? (Child’s vs Hancock)
30 % Childs vs 2% hancock
- Who attempted to validate CPR using lateral recumbent manip & supine lumbopelvic manip?
clealand et al 2009
- What were Cleland et al 2009 tx groups ?
- 2 sessions HVLA supine did not choose level and 4 attempts
- 2 sessions HVLA side lying did not choose level
- 2 sessions non thrust central PA’s to L4, L5
- What else did all groups get?Cleland
ex pelvic tilts, TrA hallowing, quadruped arm/leg ext.
- were there differences b/w the supine or side lying thrusts? Cleland
No diff at any f/u
- where were differences found? Cleland
b/w each group and the non thrust group
- what about with pain at 6 months? Cleland
no diff b/w the 3 groups
- was there a control group? Cleland
No,so unable to determine if HVLA is more useful on pts with + CPR than no Tx
- how did Laslet et al 2006 determine CPR inZJ?
intra-articular injection for ZJ or medial branch block
- what % pt’s responded to the ZJ block?
36% of all LBP pt with > 75% pain dec.
- what did Laslet et al 2006 use to rule out ZJ pain?
neg. ext rot test
12 % specificity, 100% sensitivity
- What type of patients respond to TrA and LM focused training? According to whom?
According to O’Sullivan et al 1997, TrA and LM focused exercise helps SPONDYLOLYSIS and SPONDYLOLISTHESIS patients.
- Hides et al 2001 found TrA and LM co-contraction training to be efficacious for what?
1st episode of LBP.
- Who found a delayed onset of lumbopelvic muscle contraction c SIJ pain?
Hungerford et al 2003.
- Who said that Lx stability depends on ALL trunk musculature?
Kavcic et al 2004.
- What did Stye et al 2004/2006 conclude to be the most effective Rx for PPPP?
Exercise for entire spine musculature.
- Does SIJ HVLAT put the joint back in place?
- Radiology study by Tullberg et al 1998 says NO!
- Cibulka et al 1988 says yes (found changes in innominate tilt p Chicago technique)
- Childs et al 2004 says yes (4 days p Chicago found iliac crest symmetry and WB symmetry, dec pain, but was a cohort study,
- Name 3 authors that agree c dec inhibitory mechanisms, dPAG, non-opioid mechanisms for HVLAT?
- Skyba et al 2003
- Parengmali et al 2004
- Wright 1995
- According to Childs et al 2007, what group was 8 times more likely to experience a worsening in disability?
The exercise group s manipulation.
- Have SIJ symmetry and motion tests been proven reliable or valid?
No.
- What are the best diagnostic options for SIJ?
Multi-test regimen of pain provocation and location of pain (thigh thrust and Forten’s Area).
- Is there empirical evidence to support the use of specific or global stabilization exercises for SIJ?
No.
- Is there empirical evidence that supports mobilization or HVLAT for SIJD?
Controlled trials, 1 cohort study.
- Is there any evidence directly addressing if manipulation should precede or follow stabilization exercises for SIJ or PPPP?
No.
- According to Stuge et al 2004/2006, should form closure or force closure be performed first?
Form closure should be first. i.e. Manip first.
- Any evidence to support specific positional fault diagnosis of sacrum or innominate gives better outcomes?
No. Perform sacral or innominate HVLAT irrespective of mal-alignment.
- Who suggested adjusting the SIJ prior to exercise for SIJD?
Stuge et al 2004/2006
- What did Shearer et al 2005 find between a side HVLAT or activator?
Both groups improved and not one was better than the other, but there was no control group.
- Did Freburger & Riddle 2001 find any validity or reliability for symmetry motion tests?
No.
- Can form closure be improved s identifying symmetry?
Yes, according to Hartman 1997/2006.
- According to Clements et al 2001, does it matter which direction you manipulate the AA into?
No. AA rotation asymmetry was restored regardless if HVLAT was applied unilaterally toward the restriction or away or bilaterallyl.
- What is the goal of HVLAT to SIJ?
Dec pain, inc ROM, reduced disability.
- According to Hancock et al 2007 systematic review what are potential sources for LBP?
Disc, facet joint, SIJ.
- What 3 features on MRI produced informative +LR>2 for discogenic sxs?
High intensity zone, endplate changes, disc degeneration.
- What 1 feature on MRI produced -LR
Disc degeneration (5x’s more likely to not have disc issue pain generator if no degeneration is present).
- What is the only clinical finding (as determined by Hancock et al 2007) that inc the likelihood of a disc as the source of pain?
Centralization.
- What was the +LR for centralization according to Hancock et al 2007?
+LR = 2.8
- What was the -LR for centralization according to Hancock et al 2007?
-LR = 0.6 (absence of centralization)
- Was the Revel 1972 criteria informative for facet joint diagnosis?
There were no informative LRs.
- According to Hancock et al 2007, does knowledge of the tissue source for LBP lead to better outcomes?
No.
- What was May & Rosedale 2010 conclusion regarding CPRs for LBP?
- None of the CPRs for LBP can be used confidently for differential dx.
- Spinal CPRs have verylimited support from research.
- Several further stages are required to develop CPRs.
