Study Notes
Pre-tutorial Activity (Quiz)
- Quiz Content: Covers subjective assessment, objective assessment, gait aids, functional anatomy, biomechanics, pathology, and pharmacology.
- Resource Use: Use recommended references, online databases, and textbooks.
- Correct Answers: Posted on vUWS for students who complete and submit the activity in the Independent Learning Folder Week 1.
Special Examination Questions
- Two Key Questions:
- Pain that wakes you up at night.
- Recent and sudden weight loss.
- Reasoning: These questions are clinically significant, as they can highlight underlying or serious conditions.
Body Chart Completion
- Patient Complaint: Constant (5/10) diffuse pain on the posterior aspect of the left forearm with no associated sensory changes, neck pain or shoulder pain.
- Additional Pain: Intermittent pain (2/10) at the site of a left tibia & fibula fracture with a dry dressing. Aggravated by walking, with tingling on the left foot dorsum after 10 minutes of walking.
- Recent Onset: Right knee pain (around the patella) when walking, not related to previous injury to the legs. LBP 5yrs prior.
Passive Joint ROM Test
- Significant Findings: Pain on the affected side, firm or springy end feel.
Axillary Crutches Support
- Measurement Level: Ensure the axillary support of axillary crutches is measured below the axilla to avoid compression on the neurovascular bundle.
Ankle Plantarflexor Muscle Strength Test
- Key Factors:
- Validity of the test: Factors influencing the reliability of muscle strength test result are important .
Social History Questions
- Example Questions
- 3 key questions to elicit social history
Plain Film Interpretation Principles
- Key Principles: Adequacy & Alignment, Bones, Cartilage, and Soft Tissues.
Analgesics
- Oral: Paracetamol (X2 500mg tablets every 4hrs), Tramadol (25mg every morning, up to 25mg x4/day), Indomethacin (50-200mg per day).
- IV (PCA): Morphine (4-15mg every 3-4hrs, IM or subcutaneous 2.5-20mg every 3-4hrs, oral/sublingual 5-30mg every 3-4hrs, rectal 10-30mg every 4hrs)
Red and Yellow Flags
- Red Flag: Possible serious underlying pathology.
- Yellow Flag: Psychosocial indicators suggesting increased risk of progression to long-term distress.
Pain Irritability Factors
- Factors: Severity of pain, amount of activity to aggravate pain, amount of time to allow pain to reduce.
Hip Adduction AROM Measurement
- Anatomical Landmarks: Proximal (stable) arm, axis of rotation, distal (moving) arm - These are used for reliable measurement.
Unaffected Joint End Feels
- Movements and their respective unaffected end feels.
Ankle Dorsiflexion PROM vs AROM
- Reason: Muscle weakness, active insufficiency, pain due to contractile component, or inhibition of muscle (weakness).
Outcome Measures
- Example: 6MWT, 10MWT, Berg Balance Scale, DASH, Tampa Scale, Functional Status Questionnaire, AAOS Lower Limb Questionnaire.
Bed Rest Effects
- Effects: Postural hypotension, increased risk of respiratory infection, decreased lung volumes & MCC (muscle, connective, and cartilage effects), impaired immune response, increased risk of DVT & emboli, impaired venous stasis, etc.
Humerus and Glenoid
- Movement: Humerus rolls cephalad and slides caudad on the glenoid cavity during shoulder abduction.
Gait Cycle Muscle Function
- Muscle: Quadriceps femoris at knee for the loading response.
