1
Q

What happens with Cryotheraphy

A

1) Vasoconstriction
2) Anesthesia
3) Pumping Reaction (vasodilation and vasoconstriction)

2
Q

CBAN

A

Cold
Burn
Ache (vasodilation)
Numb (vasoconstriction) - happens after 20 minutes

3
Q

Hunting-Lewis Reaction

A

Pumping

this is what happens if you leave ice on for more than 20 minutes - BAD

4
Q

Treatment Temperatures: Cold

A

55-65

5
Q

Treatment Temperatures: Cool

A

65 -80

6
Q

Treatment Temperatures: Tepid

A

80 - 92

7
Q

Treatment Temperatures: Neutral

A

92 - 96

8
Q

Treatment Temperatures: Warm

A

96 - 99

9
Q

Treatment Temperatures: Hot

A

99 - 104

over 104 will burn

10
Q

Treatment Temperatures: Very Hot

A

105 - 115

11
Q

Convection

A

transmission of heat in gases and liquids by circulation of heat particles
Example: bath (hot and cold), IR

12
Q

Radiation

A

transmission of heat without the intervening medium getting warm
Example: lamps, MWD, UV, IR
SWD is NOT radiation

13
Q

Conversion

A

the conversion of electrical energy into heat or mechanical energy
Example: US - changes energy, reverse piezoelectric effect

14
Q

Conduction

A

the transfer of heat through a substance, often heating up a solid
Example: ice, hydrocollator, paraffin, IR
