kinesiology 4

Question 1

end feel

Answer 1

the type of resistance that a clinician feels when bringing a patient’s joint to the end of its passive range of motion, then applying a slight overpressure.

Question 2

soft end feel

Answer 2

occurs when muscle bulk is compressed

Question 3

soft tissue approximation

Answer 3

soft end feel

Question 4

firm end feel

Answer 4

results from tension in the surrounding ligaments, capsule, and/or muscles and is perceived as a firm stop to the motion with only a “slight give” on overpresure.

Question 5

hard end feel

Answer 5

characterized by a hard and abrupt limit to passive joint motion with no give on overpressure

Question 6

bony end feel

Answer 6

hard end feel

Question 7

boggy end feel

Answer 7

often found in acute condition in which soft tissue edema is present

Question 8

muscle spasm

Answer 8

a reflexive muscle guarding during motion, a protective response

Question 9

empty end feel

Answer 9

hen movement produces considerable pain and the patient stops the clinician from moving the joint beyond the painful point. End of PROM was not reached, unknown

Question 10

springy block

Answer 10

a rebound movement is felt at the end of the ROM

Question 11

arthrokinematic motion

Answer 11

the manner in which adjoining surfaces move on each other during osteokinematic joint movement

Question 12

osteokinematic motion

Answer 12

joint motion

Question 13

arthrokinematic motion

Answer 13

joint surface motion

Question 14

component movements

Answer 14

small arthrokinematic joint motions that accompany active osteokinematic motion.

Question 15

joint play

Answer 15

the arthrokinematic movement that happens between joint surfaces when an external force creates passive motion a t the joint

Question 16

arthrokinematic motions

Answer 16

roll, slide, glide

Question 17

nge tha is just past whe the joint ends.

Answer 17

a technique that applies an external force to a patient’s joint to generate a passive oscillatory motion, or sustained stretch between the joint surfaces.

Question 18

High Velocity, Low Amplitude (HVLA) thrust manipulation

Answer 18

involves moving the joint with high speed through a very slight and calculated range that is just past where the joint play ends.

Question 19

Traction forces

Answer 19

used with joint mobilization, causes joint distraction in which the joint surfaces pull apart from one another

Question 20

compression force

Answer 20

used with joint mobilization, causes joint approximation in which the joint surfaces are pushed together.

Question 21

shearing force

Answer 21

used with joint approximation, causes a gliding motion in which the joint surfaces move parallel to one another

Question 22

bending

Answer 22

occurs when an other-than-vertical force is applied, resulting in compression on the concave side and distraction on the convex side. Rotary or torsional forces involve a twisting motion. One force is trying to turn one end or part through a longitudinal axis while the other force is fixed to turning in the opposite direction.

Question 23

ovoid bone

Answer 23

has two bones forming a convex-concave relationship.

Question 24

sellar

Answer 24

one joint surface is concave in one direction and convex in another.

Question 25

saddle-shaped joint

Answer 25

sellar joint

Question 26

roll

Answer 26

the rolling of one joint surface on another. new points on each surface come into contact with each other throughout the motion

Question 27

glide

Answer 27

is linear movement of a joint surface parallel to the plane of the adjoining joint surface one point on a joint surface contacts new points on the adjacent surface

Question 28

spin

Answer 28

the rotation of the movable joint surface on the fixed adjacent surface. Essentially the same point of each surface stays in contact with each other

Question 29

concave-convex rule

Answer 29

shape determines the motion

Question 30

concave joint surface

Answer 30

glides in the same direction as the distal end of the same bony segment

Question 31

convex joint surface

Answer 31

glides in the opposite direction as the distal end of the same bony segment

Question 32

congruent

Answer 32

the joint structures have maximum contact with each other, are tightly compressed, and difficult to distance(separate)

Question 33

close-packed

Answer 33

congruent

Question 34

close-packed

Answer 34

closed-pack, position

Question 35

open-packed

Answer 35

loose-packed position

Question 36

open-packed

Answer 36

resting position

Question 37

mobilizing a joint

Answer 37

distraction, gliding, bending, or torsional forces may be used

Question 38

joint approximation

Answer 38

may be used to promote joint stability
