outward bowing of knees
scoliosis
sideways curvature of the spine
sensitivity
true positive rate
detects who truly have disorder
specificity
true negative rate
detects who don’t have the disorder
positive likelihood ration
expresses the change in our confidence that a condition is present when the test is positive
negative likelihood ration
expresses the probability that the pathology is still present even though the test was negative
myotome
testing muscular strength, efferent nerve, motor
dermatome

difference between a myotome and dermatome
one is for skin and one is for muscle
deep tendon reflex physiology
travels to spinal cord
monosynaptic reflex
causes muscle to lengthen at fast rate
for a joint to have greater motion what does it have to sacrifice
stability
o’brien
