    Study Notes

    Neurological Findings

    • Tingling down the arm is a finding related to radiculopathy.

    Posture and Biomechanics

    • Abnormal posture can potentially affect the loading of joints, leading to injury or degeneration.

    Doctor-Patient Communication

    • A thorough Dr-pt introduction is considered important for establishing trust and gathering accurate information.

    Cervical Spine Mechanics

    • Anterior head translation can potentially lead to compression of the spinal canal and nerve roots.

    Edema

    • A true statement regarding edema is that it is a sign of inflammation.

    Movement Disorders

    • Positional dyskinesia is caused by abnormal contractions of muscles, often in response to certain positions or movements.

    Ostheoarticular System

    • The purpose of connecting bone to bone is to form joints, which enable movement and provide structural support.

    Soft Tissue Injuries

    • Scar tissue can impact range of motion by reducing flexibility and creating adhesions.

    Range of Motion

    • The cardinal range of motion refers to the movement of a joint in a primary plane of motion.

    Trauma

    • Slipping at the grocery store is an example of macrotrauma, an acute injury resulting from externally inflicted forces.

    Pelvic Anatomy

    • An ASEX (asymmetric, sagittal, excel) ilium presents with a sagittal orientation of the acetabulum.

    Vertebral Column Stability

    • A loss of facetal rotation at L4-5 indicates a compromise of the vertebral column stability (VCS) component.
