LA Rehabilitation Flashcards
(18 cards)
Acute Phase: Characteristics
Pain and inflammation
Tissue damage
Acute Phase: Goals
Manage pain and inflammation
Proliferative Phase: Characteristics
Reduced ROM
Muscle impairment
Functional losses
Proliferative Phase: Goals
Enhance tissue healing
Core stability/postural control
Restore joint mobility and function
Improve muscle strength and flexibility
Remodeling Phase: Characteristics
Poor MSK function
Chronic restriction/adhesion
Remodeling Phase: Goals
Conditioning
Endurance
Sports-specific demands
Prevent re-injury
Acute Phase: Treatment
Cryotherapy, heat
Laser, TENS, therapeutic US
Medication
ST and joint immobilization
Therapeutic exercises
Acupuncture
Proliferative Phase: Treatment
Therapeutic exercise (aquatic therapy, proprioceptive training, strengthening exercises)
Manual therapies (joint ROM mobilization, stretching, massage)
Physical modalities (thermal, laser, electrical stimulation, therapeutic US)
Remodeling Phase: Treatment
Dressage maneuvers
Increase number of jumps and/or height gradually
Underwater treadmill
Add circles, poles, inclines Increase velocity
Add weight
Acute Phase: Advancement
Pain control
Initiation of tissue healing
ROM improved
Tolerance of strengthening
Proliferation Phase: Advancement
No pain
Significant tissue healing
Pain free ROM
70 - 80% strength
Improved flexibility Improved core stability
Remodeling Phase: Advancement
No pain
Full pain free ROM
Normal strength and balance
Normal biomechanics
Good general fitness
TENS
Disrupts pain perception pathways (GABA high, opioids low)
Proprioception
Proprioception
Increase foot arc
Increase foot arc
Increase foot arc
