Week 2: Quiz 4 Flashcards
What is the recommended direction for the dynamic warm-up for UE before starting TERT?
Retro-cycling
What are three reasons for dynamic warm up?
- Inc tissue temperature
- Postural muscular endurance training for posterior RTC and scapulothoracic muscles
- Cardiovascular training for some patients
What postural deformity is counter-acted by retro-cycling warm-up?
Kyphotic posture
What is the prescriptive formula for TERT based on?
Intensity X duration X frequency
What is the prescriptive formula for TERT used for?
To create plastic deformation
What limits the amount of force that can be applied when utilizing the prescriptive TERT formula and how do you know the appropriate amount?
The patient’s pain tolerance - look in their eyes and watch for indication of pain
What is the desired TERT duration?
20 minutes with tissue in stretched position
What is the daily frequency when using the TERT formula?
3X per day
What is the weekly frequency when using the TERT formula?
Daily
Why do we need to exercise patients daily when using the TERT formula?
To prevent the cross-bonds, that were denatured between collagen fibers as a result of stretching exercises, from reestablishing over the course of the next 24 hours
What is the optimum TERT time per day?
60 minutes
Which scapulothoracic MMT’s can be done in sitting: 3
- Upper traps & Levator scap
- Serratus anterior
Which scapulothoracic MMT’s should be done in prone? 3
- Middle trap
- Lower trap
- Rhomboids
Which glenohumeral MMTs should be done in sitting? 3
- Flexion
- Abduction
- Scaption
Which glenohumeral MMTs should be done in supine? 1
- Horizontal adduction
Which glenohumeral MMTs should be done in prone? 4
- Extension
- Horizontal Extension
- IR
- ER (use only 2 fingers)
Describe the difference between the position for the original sleep stretch and the modified sleep stretch
Original Sleeper:
- Side-lying on side to be stretched
- 90*90* and then apply IR
Modified Sleeper:
- Side-lying on side to be stretched
- 30* scaption
- 45* GH elevation
- Apply IR (with strap ideally, to avoid fatigue)
Which sleep stretch position is optimal and why?
- Modified sleeper is optimal - avoids creating iatrogenic impingement
