Basic & Applied Sciences Flashcards
Focus on terms & concepts in Unit 1 of CPT4e certification
Assessment that measures LOWER EXTREMITY AGILITY and neuromuscular control.
Shark Skill Test
Name two conditions for which BETA BLOCKERS might be prescribed.
High blood pressure & arrhythmias
This muscle is responsible for concentrically accelerating SHOULDER extension, adduction (frontal plane toward midline), and internal rotation (toward middle of the body)?
Latissimus dorsi
PRONATION distortion system (foot pronation/flat feet (inward) & internally rotated knees (knock knees)) associated INJURIES.
Plantar fasciitis
Shin splints
Patellar tendonitis
Low back pain
LOWER CROSSED syndrome (arched lower back) altered JOINT mechanics.
> lumbar extension
< hip extension
UPPER CROSSED (forward head & rounded shoulders) syndrome: LENGTHENED muscles (weak).
Rhomboids Infraspinatus Trapezius (mid & lower) Deep cervical flexors Serratus anterior Teres minor
PUSHING assessment: UNDERACTIVE (weak) muscles with HEAD FORWARD.
Deep cervical flexors
PUSHING assessment: UNDERACTIVE (weak) muscles with ELEVATED SHOULDERS.
Mid/lower trapezius
OVERHEAD SQUAT assessment: UNDERACTIVE (weak) muscles with low back arch.
Gluteus maximus
Hamstring complex
Intrinsic core stabilizers
OVERHEAD SQUAT assessment: UNDERACTIVE (weak) muscles with excessive FORWARD LEAN

What does the Davies test show?
Upper extremity agility & stabilization (don’t use for people lacking shoulder stability).
BLOOD SUPPORT mechanisms?
Transportation
Regulation
Protection
