PC1 Inion

-Flexion at the OA junction

39
Q

what is the treatment for most posterior cervical spine midline points? (PC2 midline/lateral, PC4-8 midline, PC3-7 lateral)

A

E SaRa

40
Q

What is the treatment of pelvic tenderpoints AL3 (lateral to AIIS) and AL4 (inferior to the AIIS)

A

pt is supine, with lumbar flexion, sidebend away from tender point

41
Q

Where is the counterstrain tenderpoint of the calf muscle?

A

A one centimeter area of tenderness in the muscle belly located at the lower popliteal margin

42
Q

What is the treatment for a posterior tenderpoint a/w rib 5 on the right?

A

seated pts torso is sidebent to the LEFT and rotated to the LEFT and treated for 90 secs before returning to neutral

Posterior rib tenderpoints = rotate and sidebend away

43
Q

What is the most appropriate therapy for McArdle disease?

A

Oral ingestion of sucrose before exercise

44
Q

What part of the vertebrae is fractured in Spondylolysis (“scotty dog” sign on oblique views)

A

Par interarticularis

45
Q

An injured pt with Galeazzi fracture cant make the A-OK sign. what nerve is damaged?

A

Anterior interosseous nerve
–branch of Median N that provides only momtor innervation to the deep muscles of the hand (flexor pollicis longus, lateral half of the flexor digitorum profundus, and pronator quadratus)

46

What is the spinal levels is the sympathetic innervation to the lower extremity?

A

T10-L2

47

Rotation and sidebending occur in OPPOSITE direction

diff from Freyette’s because this can occur in Flexion or Extensio`n

48

encourage extension while discouraging flexion

55
