Q

When testing myotomes when performing manual muscle testing, how long should the patient hold the contraction? Why?

Q

What should you inform the patient of when testing?

A

Post testing soreness

17
Q

Referring patient out when

A

condition is beyond scope of practice, needing surgery etc.

18
Q

While testing PROM and AROM/RROM with muscle injury, what kind of pains are to expect?

A 
PROM = stretch pain
AROM/RROM = contraction pain
19
Q

With muscle rupture what is noticed?

A
  • Absence of pain b/c nerve is torn

* No Strength/Weakness
