- Hypertrophic scarring is an abnormal scar that grows beyond the wound boundaries, known as keloid.
Professional Misconduct
- Failing to obtain written consent and failing to reveal the exact nature of a treatment constitutes professional misconduct.
Therapeutic Techniques
- Hold-relax is effective for treatment during the chronic stage and late subacute phase.
- Cross fiber friction is contraindicated for clients taking blood thinners.
Ethical Considerations
- The Code of Ethics ensures practitioners act in the best interests of the client.
- The power differential is an ethical consideration when therapists sell products to clients.
Importance of Consent
- Consent must include information regarding the nature and purpose of treatment.
- Consent is required for releasing health history information.
Health Assessment and History
- Health history forms must include details like primary care physician and emergency contact for comprehensive client assessment.
Physiological Effects
- Aerobic training enhances physical capabilities but does not result in decreased glycogen storage in muscles.
Assessment of Muscle Groups
- Active resisted elbow extension isolates and strengthens the triceps muscle.
- Straight leg raise test is commonly used to assess tight hamstrings.
Postural Stress and Symptoms
- Seated postural stress may cause specific symptoms in clients, such as shoulder elevation and arm abduction.
Legal and Ethical Guidelines
- Members in good standing have the right to vote in council elections.
- Reports submitted by peer assessors can lead to directed remedial courses for members.
Miscellaneous
- Hyperkyphotic dysfunction does not usually stress the iliofemoral ligament, unlike swayback.
