A

up to 21 days
new scar, migration of fibroblasts
scar is red, limited ROM and strength
optimal stimulus for regeneration, protect, gain motion

Q

remodeling/maturation (chronic)

A

up to one year
macrophages/fibroblasts diminish
scar tissue density increases
increase tissue stress, full motion, strength, function

sign

A

a physical examination finding in a joint or structure that is abnormal (stiffness, hyper mobility, palpable soft tissue changes, weakness, decreased ROM)

forces contractile tissue to work

Q

PROM

A
tests inert structures
can feel end feels, capsular patterns
stretches and stresses contractile tissue
pain before end feel-acute inflammation
pain at first barrier- less inflamed
pain after first barrier- noninflammed

Q

resisted motion testing

A

tests contractile structures
NOT a measurement of muscle strength
examined in resting position
no joint movement
strong and painful- minor strain
weak and painless- near problem or tendon rupture
weak and painful- moderate to major contractile lesion or more serious problem, such as a fracture

Q

deep tendon reflex grading scale

A
0= no response
1+= hypo reflexive 
2+= normal response
3+= hyperreflexive
4+= clonus
22
Q

DTR hyporeflexive

A

spinal nerve root, peripheral nerve, cerebellum (rarely)

23
Q

hyperreflexive

A

cortex, brain stem, spinal cord

24
Q

nociceptors

A

free nerve endings, can be painful

25
Q

articular cartilage

A

avascular, no nociceptive fibers, no inflammatory response, full thickness injury penetrates into subchondral bone which produces sign

26
Q

labrum

A

fibrocartilage, test with compression through joint, may be positive injury with pain, reproduction of symptoms, and or pop/click

27
Q

same pain results with AROM and PROM in SAME direction…

A

suspect INERT tissue

28
Q

same pain results with AROM and PROM in OPPOSITE directions…

A

suspect contractile tissue

29
Q

Capsular pattern

A

limitation of pain and movement in a joint specific ratio

suggests irritation of entire synovial membrane or joint capsule

30
Q

noncapsular pattern

A

suggests internal derangements (meniscus tear)
extra articular adhesions (muscle injury, bursitis)
restriction of one part of capsule

31
Q

Iliopsoas

A

hip flexion

32
Q

rectus femoris

A

hip flexion, knee extension

33
Q

adductor longus

A

hip flexion, adduction, internal rotation

34
Q

sartorius

A

hip flexion, external rotation, abduction

35
Q

TFL

A

hip flexion, abduction, internal rotation

36
Q

tendon vs ligament

A

tendon- typical finding is strong but painful response to resistance of involved musculotendinous structure
ligament- point tenderness, joint effusion, history of trauma, stress test applied perpendicular to normal plane of joint movement can help distinguish severity

37
Q

dermatome

A

sensory distribution

38
Q

myotome

A

muscle distribution

39
Q

pes planus

A

pronation
long post tib
tight peroneal muscles

40
Q

pes cavus

A

supination
tight post tib
long peroneal muscles

41
Q

A

bow leg
>/= 180
hyperextension of knees?

42
Q

genu valgum

A

knock knees

43
Q

tibial torsion

A

ideal 13-18

44
Q

Q angle

A

angle between line formed by ASIS to mid patella to tibial tubercle

45
Q

genu recurvatum

A

tight quads,gastrocnemius

hyperextend

46
Q

flexed knees

A

tight post capsule

weak quads

47
Q

femoral retroversion

A
48
Q
