33
VA testing
Rotation right then left to end range; count from 15 down to 1 Observe for loss of count, confusion, dizziness, nystagmus, fluttering, voice changes, nausea
34
How do you take the middle ear out from VA testing?
turn shoulders dont move head
35
trigger points show what kind of pain
refer pain
36

40
CCFT is used to test which muscle
longus collis
41
what is key with CCFT?
head nod
42
how do you do CCFT
head nod then lift
43
This test measures errors viewed in return from extension and rotation (can also do flexion and sidebending)
cervical joint position sense
44
How do you complete the cervical joint position sense?
Mark starting position, close eyes, move into extension or rotation and return to start then Measure difference in marks in centimeters and not over/undershoot
45
What is normal joint position sense
less than or equal to 7cm from starting mark
46
Slide glides, side bending and PA in prone can be used to test
segmental mobility
47
What are you looking for with side glide testing
see if its stiff at end range
48
What happens when you do segmental mobility side bending?
SB closes and slides down
49
PA in prone assess _
extension
50
What percentage of rotation occurs at C1/C2?
60-70%
51
What are you looking for with cervical-flexion rotation test?
how much rotation and flexion they have
52
Spurling test is used to test for
cervical radiculopathy
53
This test is compression to close down the facet with the head side bent a. Brachial plexus compression test b. distraction test c. spurling test d. Sharp pusher test
spurling test
54
This test is compressing just above the clavicle and putting traction on the nerve root a. Brachial plexus compression test b. distraction test c. spurling test d. Sharp pusher test
brachial plexus compression test
55
The brachial plexus test compression test is testing for
cervical radiculopathy
56
This test is cupping of neck around mastoid process and other hand on top of chin, fulling with cupping hand a. Brachial plexus compression test b. distraction test c. spurling test d. Sharp pusher test
distraction test
57
The distraction test is used to test for
cervical radiculopathy
58
A positive distraction test is indicated by a. pain provocation b. nerve pain c. shooting pain d. symptoms made better
symptoms made better
59
Patient brings shoulder up into abduction with elbow flexion to see if there's pain a. Brachial plexus compression test b. distraction test c. spurling test d. abduction test
abduction test
60
A positive shoulder abduction test is indicated by
making symptoms better
61
Cervical rotation less than 60 degrees to involved side, Positive spurlings, positive distraction and positive ULNT is what prediction rule
Wainer for cervical radiculopathy
62
What is the Wainners CPR for cervical radiculopathy?
Cervical rotation less than 60 degrees to involved side, Positive spurlings positive distraction positive ULNT
63
ULNT 1 has high (sensitivity/specificity)
sensitivity
64
The modified sharp pusher test, alar ligament stability, anterior shear/transverse ligament test are used to test for
upper cervical instability
65
this test is pinching the spinous process of C2 and flex head with applied force to the forehead
modified sharp pusher test
66
cervical flexion rotation test and joint mobility assessment assess for
cervicogenic headache
67
cervical flexion rotation test is used to
check mobility of C1 and C2
68
what CPR is used to see if the c-spine radiographs are needed
Canadian c-spine rules
69
AA joint does
rotation
70
AA muscle energy technique
flexion then rotation and hold against resistance
71
What grades should you do for cervical slide glide mobilization?
grade 3 and 4
72
cervical side bending mobilization is used to treat
radiculopathy
73
How do you do splenius capitis soft tissue release
extend neck with contact on occipital then lengthen under fingers and hold, drag superiorly
74
Prone PA mobs work on
extension
75
this mobilization is stand on side of pt, cup hand under c2, stack fingers and take up slack with soft tissue then rotate head with hand on top of forehead and feel C2 in your fingers
AA mobilization
76
How do you do an upslope manipulation?
rotation side bend extend
