72
Q

explain muscle length test for gastroc

A

start with them in seated pos on table
goni measure dorsi
(below lat malleolus, 5th meta, fib head)
the have them extend knee and remeasure, if second measurement is a smaller number they are tight

73
Q

explain Thomas test

A

you have pt at end of table (like they were going to sit on it) you guide them back to a supine position as you keep your hand at lumbar spine

as you stabalize tightly as ASIS and PSIS you have them grab behind their opposing knee and have them hold it as you let testing leg drop. if they can reach all the way to table with testing leg, iliopsoas is not tight. if leg reaches table but knee extends then the tight muscle is the RF, If you can abd the leg and get more depth then TFL is the prob

74

87
Q

if you are extending the hip in PROM and there is px in the hip flexors, what tissue is this

Q

ant pelvic tilt _____ are tight

A

121
Q

speed of ossilation of mobs

A

2-3 oscillations per sec or 30 sec)

122
Q

absolute contraindications for joint mobs

123
Q

the assessment of joint mobility we do (scale 0-6), what findings would we not want to do joint mobs and why

A

4, 5, 6 we typically don’t do mobs on unless they have px (these are hyper mobile)

124
Q

difference btwn grade 1 and grade 2 mob

A

both are before resistance
There is only one difference between a Grade 2 oscillation and a Grade I: Grade 2 amplitude is large and a Grade I amplitude is small.

A

type 1

128
Q

medium sized, rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors, found in the deeper layers of the joint capsule.

143
Q

explain grading scale for PAM assessment

A
0/6  = there is no motion between the two articulating surfaces.    Mobilization/manipulation is not indicated because the joint is ankylosed. 
1/6 =  there is considerable limitation in the excursion between the two joint surfaces. 
2/6 =  there is slight limitation in the excursion between the two joint surfaces. 
3/6 =  the amount of movement between the joint surfaces is normal.
4/6 =  there is a slight increase in the excursion between the two joint surfaces. The patient should be treated with stabilization and postural re-education. Taping and bracing may also be used. 
5/6 =   there is a considerable increase in the excursion between the two joint surfaces. Treatment is similar to that listed in 4/6.
6/6 =   The joint is unstable.
