Final Theory Exam Flashcards
Understand what happens to a muscle when its stretched and when its strengthened. Think Origin and Insertion
Muscle becomes lengthened (stretched) O pulled from I
Muscles become shortened (contracted) O to I
Understand difference in approach for inflammatory conditions due to trauma in Protection, Controlled Motion, Return to Function Phases *NOT FINISHED
1) Protection Phase
- Don’t disturb tissue healing grade 1 distraction to help reduce pain
- Help circulate synovial fluid in the capsule it also helps improve tissue health and cartilage/Connective Tissue
- Decrease SNS firing by full body relaxation
2) Controlled Motion
3) Return to Function
Review muscle O and I’s listed in LPs

Understand the movement of the Patella during Flexion and Extension of the knee
Extension: Patella slides superiority
Flexion: Patella slides inferiority
5 degree of flexion: Inferior patella begins to articulate with femur
90 degree of flexion: Patella inferior to patellar groove, quadriceps tendon is in contact
2 Articulation of Patella (Knee)
1) 2 Condyles of distal femur
2) 2 tibial plateaus on proximal tibia
Which complex muscles of the shoulder should be strengthened to provide stability for Ant GH Instability?
Strengthen Infraspinatus
Which complex muscles of the shoulder should be strengthened to provide stability for Post GH Instability?
Pectoralis Major
What are some conditions where muscle setting is appropriate or indicated?
- Prevent mm atrophy while you are in a cast
- Fractures: When client can’t move a joint
- During Protection Phase
Which muscles are active during each stage of Stance Phase Gait
1) Initial Contact (heel strike)
- Ankle dorsiflexors, hip extensors, knee flexors
(Tib Ant, Glute Max, Hamstrings)
2) Load Response (weight accepted/flat foot)
- Knee extensors, hip abductors, ankle plantar flexors
(Vasti, Glute med, Gastroc, Soleus)
3) Midstance (single-leg support)
- Ankle plantar flexors (isometric)
(Gastroc, Soleus)
4) Terminal Stance (Heel off)
- Ankle plantar flexor (concentric)
(Gastroc, Soleus)
5) Pre Swing (Toe off)
- Hip flexor
(Iliopsoas, Rec Fem)
Which muscles are active during each stage of Swing Phase Gait
1) Initial Swing
- Ankle dorsiflexor, hip flexor
(Tib ant, iliopsoas, rec fem)
2) Mid Swing
- Ankle dorsiflexor
(Tib Ant)
3) Terminal Swing (Deceleration)
- Knee flexor, Hip Extensor, Ankle Dorsiflexor, Knee Extensor
(Hamstring, Glute Max, Tib Ant, Vasti)
What type of joint is TMJ?
Synovial Condylar - Modified ovoid/Hinge Joint
What ligaments are found in TMJ?
1) Lateral Collateral
2) Capsular
Both coordinate movement between disc and condyle
A self-productive and a result of injury to the pelvis, hip, knee, ankle and foot. The stance phase on the affected leg is shorter than that on non-affected leg. Due to client trying to remove weight on affected side quickly
Antalgic (Painful) Gait
Gait pattern characterized by staggering and unsteadiness. Lack of coordination and tendency of poor balance. There is usually a wise base of support and movement are exaggerate
Ataxic Gait
Gait pattern in which the feet and toes are lifted through hip and knee flexion to excessive heights; usually secondary to dorsiflexor weakness. The foot will slap at initial contact with the ground secondary to decreased control
Stoppage (Drop Foot) Gait
Gait pattern with stiff movement, toes seeming to catch and drag, legs are held together, hip and knees slightly flexed. Commonly seen in spastic paraplegia
Spastic Gait
Gait pattern that denotes glute med weakness; excessive lateral trunk flexion and weight shifting over the stance leg
Trendelenburg Gait
Gait pattern in which the legs cross midline upon advancement
Scissor Gait
Staggering gait pattern seen in cerebella disease
Cerebellar
Number of steps per time unit. Normally 90-120 steps per minute
Cadence
How does age, sex and pathology affect cadence?
- Women usually 6-9 steps per min higher than men
- With age, cadence decreases
- With pathology of deformity, cadence pattern may be altered
CI’s to stretching and AITs
1) Bony block limits joint motion
2) Recent fracture and bony union is incomplete
3) Acute inflammation
4) Sharp acute pain with joint movement or muscles elongation
5) Hematoma
6) Joint hypermobility
7) Shorted soft tissue provide necessary joint stability in lieu of normal structural ability or neruromuscular control
8) Shorted soft tissue enable a patient with paralysis or severe muscle weakness to perform specific functional skills otherwise not possible
Know Oscillation Joint Mobilization Grades
Grade 1: Small-amplitude performed at beginning of range (quick vibration)
Grade 2: Large-amplitude performed within range (Slow 2/3 sec for 1/2 mins)
Grade 3: Large-amplitude performed within range and to resistance (Slow 2/3 sec for 1/2 mins)
Grade 4: Small-amplitude performed at available limit to resistance (quick vibration)
When would you use Oscillation Mobilization’s?
Grade 1 and 2 are for pain and muscle guarding (No stretch motions to improve nutrition to cartilage).
Grade 3 and 4 are used as stretching maneuvers
