VSC/PART/Principles Flashcards
Kinesiopathology
atypical motion/position
How do we determine a kinesiopathology?
List
What do you need to record when determining kinesiopathology?
history, static/motion palpation, ROM, posture, imaging
Myopathology
dysfunction in muscles (tonicity/weakness/asymmetry)
What do you need to record when determining a myopathology?
history, palpation, motor exam, posture, specialized studies (EMG)
Neuropathology
compression/stretch/axoplasmic flow of nervous sytem
What do you need to record when determining a neuropathology?
history, instrumenation, deep tendon reflex, sensory/motor exam, specialized studies (imaging, NCV)
Histopathology
edema/inflammation cascade on a cellular level
What do you need to record when determining a histopathology?
history, palpation, imaging, blood chemistry
pathophysiology
functional changes associated with disease (measles, cancer, etc), dis-ease (subluxation complex) or injury
What do you need to record when determining a pathophysiology?
What your named differential diagnoses are
What your paradigm and scope is
How you will render care
Patient education
What are the components of VSC?
neuropathology, histopathology, myopathology, kinesiopathology, pathophysiology
Principle 17
every cause has an effect and vice versa
Principle 18
we should live life to its potential
Principle 20
every living thing has innate intelligence
Principle 21
the mission of innate intelligence is homeostasis
Principle 24
limitations of adaption
Principle 30
the cause of dis-ease is failure to adapt
Principle 31
Is the subluxation the cause or the effect?
What does the P stand for in the PART system?
pain and tenderness
How do you determine if there is anything to record for P of the PART system?
observing the pain the patient exhibits percussion, palpation, provocation visual analog scale audio confirmation pain questionnaire (history)
What does the A stand for in the PART system?
asymmetry or misalignment
How do you determine if there is anything to record for A of the PART system?
observing patient posture and gaid
static and dynamic palpation
diagnostic imagin
What does the R stand for in the PART system?
ROM abnormality
How do you determine if there is anything to record for R of the PART system?
observing an increase or decrease in ROM
motion palpation
stress diagnostic imaging
What does the T stand for in the PART system?
tissue tone changes
How do you determine if there is anything to record for T of the PART system?
observation
palpation
use of instrumentation
tests for length and strength
Kinesiopathology and what part of the PART system are related?
A and R
Myopathology and what part of the PART system are related?
P, A, T
Neuropathology and what part of the PART system are related?
P, A, T
Histopathology and what part of the PART system are related?
P, A, T
Static palpation is insightful about which components of VSC?
Kinesiopathology, myopathology, histopathology, neuropathology
What is the flow of treating a patient?
History/smptomatology, visualization-posture/leg check, instrumentation, static and motion palpation, spinography (intrinsic cause), VSC, adjust with appropriate technique, lifestyle education (extrinsic cause)

What are the levels of pressure from least to most invasive?
sudoriferous, turgidity, tonicity, tissue prominency, palpatory tenderness, deep tonicity changes
