Q

The hip drop test screens for ____ restrictions

^** If the hip on the unsupported side drops more than 25 degrees, it is a normal test (negative), if it does not drop more than 25 degrees, it is a positive test on the unsupported side

^** In other words, when you bend your right knee, it causes you to side bend to the left so as an example, lets say the patient’s right iliac crest only drops 10 degrees (meaning when they bent their right leg, the iliac crest only went down 10 degrees) therefore they have a + R hip drop test and therefore they have a restriction to ___ side bending and therefore side bent right

AKA IT IS THE OPPOSITE

Also realize the Trendelenburg test checks for ____ problems/___ nerve pathology and if right foot lifted and right hip drops, it’s weakness on the left gluteus medius side

A

43
Q

For sternoclavicular (SC) somatic dysfunctions

If there is SC adduction SD, the patient is restricted to abduction and ease of motion to adduction

Since the patient is therefore restricted to abduction, we can have the patient perform an abduction motion and which ever clavicle is restricted to that motion would be the one with the adduction SD

Therefore, we must first know the movements of the clavicle for an abduction motion (shrug ones shoulders)… This motion consists of the distal ends of the clavicles moving ___ and the proximal ends moving ___

So if the patient performs the shoulder shrug and the left proximal clavicle does not move as for inferior as the right, that means the left clavicle is restricted to abduction and therefore the LEFT clavicle has an ADduction SD

^** AKA the side that does not go as far inferior is the side of the adduction SD

In order to treat this, patient is supine and at edge of table; doc contacts proximal clavicle head and then upper extremity is brought off the table and ___ rotated and ___ into the restriction barrier and patient is instructed to provide activating force towards the ceiling (___ at the shoulder)

A

Superiorly, inferiorly

Internally rotated and extended, flexion

44
Q

For SC horizontal extension SDs, this would mean the patient is restricted to horizontal flexion with ease of motion into horizontal extension

Since the patient is therefore restricted to flexion, we can have the patient perform a flexion motion and which ever clavicle is restricted to that motion would be the one with the extension SD

Therefore, we must first know the movements of the clavicle for an flexion motion (reach for the ceiling)… This motion consists of the distal ends of the clavicles moving ___ and the proximal ends moving ___

So if the patient performs the flexion motion and the left proximal clavicle does not move as for posterior as the right, that means the left clavicle is restricted to flexion and therefore the LEFT clavicle has an Horizontal Extension SD SD

^** AKA the side that does not go as far poster is the side of the horizontal extension SD

To treat this, doc places one hand on __ aspect of the proximal clavicular portion of the joint and the other placed behind the ipsilateral ___ (to cover the scapula)

The patient reaches up and grasps students shoulder in order to begin to engage the barrier via horizontal flexion and this is continued as the doctor begins to straighten up and therefore increase the horizontal flexion of the clavicle which brings it towards the ____. This is done until movement is palpated at the SC joint and at the same time the doc is pulling the scapula ____. Also a ___ force is simultaneously applied to the proximal clavicle from anterior to posterior

The activating force consists of the patient pulling the ipsilateral shoulder girdle ___ (towards or away?) the table

A

Anterior, posterior

Radial deviation ROM is ___ and Ulnar deviation ROM is ___

In order to treat using ME just engage barrier

^** HVLA just engage barrier and apply thrust

A

Abduction, adduction

20-30, 30-40

49
Q

Extending the wrist results in ___ carpal glide and flexing the wrist results in ___ carpal glide

Extension ROM is ___ and flexion ROM is ___

Engage restriction barrier for ME

A

Ventral, dorsal

Q

For ulnar abduction and ulnar adduction SDs, you diagnosis them via having them supinate their arm and contacting the patients ulna with one hand and the distal radius/ulna with the other hand and provide a ___ and ___ force

^** So realize that here, ulnar SDs are referring to dysfunctions of the olecranon where as the other “Ulnar deviation/adduction wrist SD” is referring the the distal ulna near the wrist

An ulnar abduction SD will have ease of motion to ___ force and an ulnar adduction SD will have easy of motion to ___ force

Therefore for an ulnar abduction SD, you contact the ipsilateral ___ ulna and then make sure the elbow is fully ___ and the engage the restriction barrier by adducting and apply a ___ HVLA thrust

The opposite for an ulnar adduction SD occurs. Contact ___ ulna, extend, and apply ___ HVLA thrust

A

Valgus, varus

Valgus, Varus

Medial, extended, Varus (direction of ulnar adduction)

Lateral, valgus (direction of ulnar abduction)

51
Q

If a patient has ease of motion to anterior glide of the radial head and forearm supination, they have a ___ SD and this is treated by HVLA via engaging the restriction barrier by placing a hand on the ___ aspect of the radial head (palm of the hand in direct contact) and then the other doctors hand ___ the patients ipsilateral elbow so the hand can act as a fulcrum.

Also make sure the patients arm is ___nated

HVLA thrust is in the direction of ___ at the elbow and simultaneous ___ force with hand in contact at radial head

A

Anterior radial head SD

Anterior, flexes

Pronated

Hyperflexion, dorsal

52
Q

A posterior radial head SD is treated via HVLA by placing thumb of one hand on the ___ aspect of the radial head and other hand ___ the elbow so that the thumb can act as a fulcrum and then make sure the arm is fully ___nated

HVLA thrust is in the direction of ___ at the elbow and simultaneous ___ force with the thumb in contact with the radial head

A

Posterior, extends, supinated

Hyperextension, ventral

53
Q

For an extension or flexion wrist/ carpal SD HVLA treatment has the patient contacting the ipsilateral wrist with both hands (thumbs are in contact with the ___ aspect and the index fingers are in contact with the ___ aspect)

**For HVLA, you first engage the ____ of motion and THEN you engage the restriction barrier ***

HVLA thrust is into direction of wrist hyperextension/hyper-flexion and simultaneous ventral/dorsal carpal glide

A

Dorsal, ventral

Ease

54
Q

Phalangeal SDs are palpated at the ___ joints and moved through flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, internal, and external rotation

Grasp the ___ with one hand and the ___ with the other hand

Provide a ___ force and then a HVLA thrust into ___ of the joint being treated is applied

A

MCP

Distal metacarpal and proximal phalanx

Distraction, hyperflexion

55
Q

MFR for a forearm interosseous memrbane SD occurs by first diagnosing the problem via contacting the forearm with both thumbs on the __ aspect and concentrating on the tissues deep between the ulna and radius feeling for tissue texture changes deep in the tissues or tenderness

Then use thumbs to move the tissue ___ (name all positions)

The once SD is determined, you can perform direct or indirect MFR

A

Anterior

56
Q

MFR for a wrist flexor retinaculum SD is first diagnosed via contacting the wrist with both thumbs over the anterior aspect and concentrating on the tissue between the ___ and ___ eminence

This can be associated with ___

For treatment, grasp the wrist with thumbs on the anterior aspect with one at each end of the flexor retinaculum and the fingers wrap around dorsal aspect of wrist, then provide force with thumbs by pressing ___ onto the wrist and pushing ___ WITHOUT sliding the fingers across the skin
