Q

Shoulder Flexion PROM

Study These Flashcards
A

Supine, pillow under head but shifted to the other side

Keep the elbow and guide the shoulder into flexion

Therapist in stride stance, facing the patients face in order to monitor emotion

22
Q

Shoulder Extension PROM

Study These Flashcards
A

Supine, slightly angled across the bed (So there is room to extend the arm off of the bed.

Keep elbow bent (Prevents Passive insufficiency of the biceps). Slowly lower into extension but protect the anterior part of the shoulder

23
Q

Shoulder Abduction PROM

Study These Flashcards
A

Supine, Pillow under head shifted to the other side

Therapist needs to leave sufficient room for patients arm to go in front of you. One hand supports the elbow and the other hand supports the hand.

24
Q

Internal and External Rotation

Study These Flashcards
A

Patient Supine, Shoulder abducted to 90, elbow at 90

Support patient elbow with the therapists leg. One hand supports the the humeral head and the other on the hand.

25
Horizontal Flexion and Extension
Supine, body shifted to the side of the bed. Elbow & shoulder at 90. Support the elbow and the wrist Either lower the arm off of the bed to achieve extension or move the arm across the body for flexion
26
ACJ Inferior Glide
Supine Use thumb pads to glide the acromion inferiorly. Take care with pressure
27
GHJ AP Glide (Neutral)
Supine, towel under arm Therapist facing the head of the bed. One hand hooks over and stabilises the scapula and the other hand pushes through the superior humerus (pretty laterally)
28
GHJ AP Glide (90 Abduction)
Supine, arm off of the bed abducted to 90 Therapist facing head of bed, one hand holding arm up from the elbow and the other pressing AP force through the proximal humerus.
29
GHJ Inferior Glide (Neutral)
Supine, arm slightly off of the bed. Straight arm. Hand 1 hooks under the armpit and stabilises the scapula, hand 2 pulls the humerus downwards.
30
GHJ Inferior Glide (90 Abduction)
Supine, arm abducted to 90. Hand 1 stabilises the scapula and hand 2 applies traction force to the humerus.
31
Elbow Flexion PROM
Supine, Towel underneath the elbow Hand 1 supports the humerus and hand 2 supports and guides the movement from the wrist.
32
Elbow Extension PROM
Supine, Towel underneath the elbow Hand 1 supports the humerus by wrapping around under it (forearm support the humeral head) and hand 2 supports and guides the movement from the wrist.
33
Elbow Supination and Pronation
Sitting, elbow on table with towel underneath Rotational force applied through the forearm
34
Superior Radioulnar Joint PA Radial Head glide (FACILITATES SUPINATION)
Supine, forearm resting across the stomach (Elbow abducted to 90) Press through the radial head with the thumb pads
35
Superior Radioulnar Joint AP Radial Head glide (FACILITATES PRONATION)
Supine, Elbow at 45 degrees, forearm supinated Radial head is deep to lateral muscles of the forearm. Push the thumbs from the medial cubital fossa laterally to push the musculature out of the way and reach the bony head.
36
Radiohumeral Joint (Distraction Glide)
Supine, Elbow flexed to 90 degrees. Face the head of the bed. One hand stabilises the the humerus and the other hand applies a distraction force to the elbow.
37
Wrist flexion/extension
Sitting, Forearm in mid-prone. Guide the hand into flexion and extension
38
Ulnar/Radial Devation
Sitting, Forearm in prone. Guide the hand into deviations same as overpressure.
39
PA Glide of Radiocarpal joint
Sitting, forearm in prone, hand over the table Therapist standing and applying force vertically. Hand 1 stabilises forearm and the other hand hooks over the dorsum and the fingers into the palm. Glide the hand downwards without putting the wrist into flexion/extension. Facilitates Extension
40
AP Glide of Radiocarpal Joint
Sitting, forearm in supine, with hand off of the table. One hand grips the forearm the other holds the hand of the patient.
41
Medial and Lateral Glides of radiocarpal Joint
Patient seated, elbow resting on the table Hand in prone Hand 1 stabilise the radius and ulnar and the other hand webbing space covers the carpal bones.
42
Intercarpal Movements
Stabilise the adjacent carpal bone and mobilise the bone.
43
Inferior Radioulnar Joint Glides
Seated, forearm on table. Radius held between the thumb and index fingers and the other holding the ulnar.
44
CMC of Thumb PA and AP & medial/lateral glides
Stabilise carpals and move the 1st MC
45
1st MCP joint AP and PA & medial/lateral glides
Stabilises the MC and Move the Phalanx
46
MCP & IP 2-5 Joint AP/PA glides & medial/lateral glides
Stabilises the proximal bone and glide the distal bone.
47
Cervical Flexion PROM
Supine, Towel under Head Head held in the hands (support the posterior occiput) Slightly pull the head upwards before bringing them into flexion
48
Cervical Lateral Flexion PROM
Supine, Towel under Head Head held in hands with support of the occiput. Also support the head with the patient stomach (The more contact the better) Step to the side whilst doing the lateral flexion (Move with the patient).
49
Cervical Rotation PROM
Supine, Towel under head Head held in hands with support of the occiput. Also support the head with the patient stomach (The more contact the better) Turn the head left and right
50
PA cervical pressure on spinous process
Patient in prone, Therapist standing at the head of the bed. Thumbs press through, fingers pick up lateral musculature. Gently sink into PA pressure.
51
Unilateral PA of Cervical articular pillars
Patient in prone, Therapist standing at the head of the bed. Lateral 2cm from the spinous process.
