Study Notes
- Hypomobility and hypermobility are conditions that can affect an individual's ability to move and perform physical activities
- Hypomobility is characterized by a lower range of motion and a higher risk of injury, especially sprains
- Strength and power are important factors in mobility, assessed through various tests such as manual muscle testing, grip strength, and exercise machines
- Power is the ability to produce force in a given time and is assessed through timed tests like throwing a medicine ball or a vertical jump
- Agility is the ability to change directions rapidly and is assessed through functional tests like single- or two-legged hops for distance and stair climbing
- Balance is the body's coordinated neuromuscular response to maintain a defined position of equilibrium and is assessed through tests like the single-leg stance
- Reaction time is the ability to respond to a stimulus and is assessed through various tests like the tap test
- Cardiovascular endurance is the ability to sustain submaximal exercise over an extended period and is assessed through tests like the 1.5-mile run
- Prior to participation in sports or physical activities, a clearance for participation is required, which includes an assessment of the individual's condition and any potential risks or limitations
- A primary and secondary survey is conducted during on-field assessments for injuries, which includes documenting subjective and objective information in SOAP notes
- Injury assessment involves gathering a history of the injury, performing observations and inspections, and conducting palpation and functional tests
- Motor function is assessed through tests like goniometry, which measures the range of motion, and assesses muscle strength, movement coordination, and injury to the nervous system
- Ligamentous and capsular testing assesses joint function and integrity of joint structures through assessing joint laxity and stability.
