Therapeutic Exercise 1 & 2 Flashcards
The basic technique used in examination of
movement and initiating movement to a
program of therapeutic intervention.
Range of Motion
It talks about arthrokinematics.
Joint Range of Motion
The distance a muscle is capable of shortening.
Funtional Excursion or Muscle Range of Motion
It refers as the maximum shortened position which cannot give enough force/tension.
Active Insufficiency
It refers as the maximum lengthened position.
Passive Insufficiency
A condition utilizing passive insufficiency.
Tendosesis
What happens during C6 SCI?
Passively extend the wrist to make use the passive insufficiency of finger flexors.
Length that a muscle can generate the highest tension.
Resting length
The velocity that muscle can generate the highest tension.
Fast eccentric
Force: Highest tension to Lowest Tension
FE>SE>ISO>SC>FC
It is a movement within unrestriced ROM provided by an external force.
Passive Range of Motion
External Forces in PROM
Gravity
Another Individual
Machine
Another patient’s own body
Indications of PROM
- Acute surgery
2 Injury inflammation - Pt is not able to or not supposed to do AROM
Goals of PROM
- Maintain tissue extensibility
- Avoid Contractures
- Maintain joint mobility
- Assist Circulation
- Decrease joint pain
What is more strenous in terms of exercising the body: UE or LE? Explain
UE d/t muscle size and venous return
