Study Notes
Gait Cycle
- During the first phase of the gait cycle, the ankle is in a neutral position.
Shoulder Joint
- The supraspinatus muscle is responsible for the first 30° of shoulder abduction and is also an abductor of the shoulder joint.
Arthokinematic Movements
- The "roll" fundamental arthokinematic movement occurs when multiple points on one articular surface contact single points on another surface.
- The "glide/slide" fundamental arthokinematic movement occurs when multiple points on one articular surface contact multiple points on another surface.
Muscle Function
- The soleus muscle has the lowest work when rising on the toes and pushing the body weight directly upward.
Patella and Tibial Tuberosity Alignment
- Drawing a straight line across the middle of the patella and a straight line going down through the center of the tibial tuberosity and another straight line going upward toward the anterior superior iliac spine allows for the calculation of an angle.
Study Designs
- A randomized control trial should be a priority during a search.
Spondylolisthesis
- A 75% anterior displacement of L4 vertebra over L5 vertebra is considered a grade 3 displacement.
Shoulder Diagnosis
- If a patient is unable to maintain a passively abducted position, the most likely diagnosis is supraspinatus impingement.
Function and Disability
- Improving the ability to reach overhead and groom hair is an example of improving activity limitation according to the International Classification of Functioning (ICF).
Wound Management
- Ultraviolet ray treatment can assist in destroying bacteria and fungi commonly found in wounds.
Ultrasonic Waves
- A beam of therapeutic ultrasonic waves from a transducer has a roughly cylindrical shape.
Quartz Changes
- Changes to quartz in an ultraviolet apparatus can result in the formation of tridymite.
Wax Therapy
- Wax therapy is typically performed within a temperature range of 54-60°C.
Neurological Conditions
- In Parkinson's disease, the basal ganglia are affected, leading to tremor at rest, slowness of movement, and rigidity.
Erb's Palsy
- Erb's palsy affects the C5-C6 nerve roots, leading to loss of elbow flexion power and supination of the forearm.
Low Back Pain
- Ligamentous laxity is a common cause of back pain in pregnant women.
Pediatric Conditions
- Spastic diplegia is characterized by paralysis of the legs.
Spasticity Assessment
- A Modified Ashworth scale grade of 3 indicates a considerable increase in muscle tone and difficulty with passive movement.
Hip Muscles
- The flexors and adductors are stretched during a specific exercise.
Injury Prevention
- Avoiding resistance to the distal tibia is a precaution to take during close kinematic chain training.
Stretching Exercises
- Reducing force and increasing repetitions are techniques to prevent injury during stretching exercises.
Diabetes Management
- Exercise training and walking are recommended for patients with controlled diabetes to increase glucose uptake by the muscles.
Osteoporosis Management
- Trunk rotation and abdominal stabilization exercises are appropriate for patients with osteoporosis.
Rheumatoid Arthritis Management
- Hydrotherapy can be used to improve cardiovascular fitness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Pain Management
- A heart rate of 35-50 beats per minute is a target for monitoring exercise intensity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Physical Examination
- Local tenderness at the ischial tuberosity and pain on resisted knee flexion may indicate hamstrings strain.
Neurological Examination
- Sensory loss on the dorsal aspect of the foot is indicative of L5 spinal level involvement.
Shoulder Pain Management
- Strengthening the middle and lower trapezius and stretching the upper trapezius is an appropriate approach for managing chronic shoulder pain.
Orthotics
- A Milwaukee brace is used to manage scoliosis.
Respiratory Management
- A patient with cystic fibrosis should be positioned in a lateral decubitus position to drain secretion from the lingula.
Avascular Necrosis Management
- In a patient with avascular necrosis of the femoral neck, reducing hip pain can be achieved by addressing a 2 cm leg-length discrepancy.
