Which planes divides the body into medial and lateral segment?
Sagittal
during loading response phase of gait what can cause knee hyperextension?
weak quadriceps
fixed ankle plantar flexion deformity
quadriceps spasticity
What is the major limitation of type II B muscle fibers?
high fatigability
Muscle atrophy is most often associated with which drug classification?
Glucocorticoid agents
which two bony surfaces comprise the temporomandibular joint?
mandibular fossa of the skull; condylar process of the mandible
what tendon surrounds the pisiform bone?
flexor carpi ulnaris
repair of the lateral ankle ligaments is commonly performed secondary to ?
complete tear of the anterior talofibular ligament and/or calcaneofibular ligament, or to chronic ankle instability
which phase of gait requires the greatest amount of ankle dorsiflexion range of motion?
Terminal stance (10 degree)
What is festination?
forward trunk lean and progressive increase in cadence , often associated with Parkinsonian gait
which structure would be necessary to palpate with suspected Colles’ fracture?
distal radius
Colles’ fracture is a fracture of the distal radius with dorsal displacement of the fracture segment.
what is the common mechanism of injury of Colles’ fracture?
fall on an outstretched hand
capsular pattern of the cervical spine
lateral flexion and rotation equally limited, extension
open/closed packed position for cervical spine
open - midway between flexion and extension
closed - full extension
capsular pattern of the hip
flexion, abduction and medial rotation
what is force couple
two force vectors on opposite sides of an axis that create a collective movement
Neer test
subacromial impingement
pain occurring at 60-120 degree of shoulder flexion
pain or facial grimace is a positive
comminuted fracture
fracture that breaks into fragments at the site of injury
De Quervain’s disease is a progressive tenosynovitis of which two tendons?
abductor pollicis longus and extensor pollicis brevis
when assessing a patient’s ability to open their mouth fully, what distance between the top and bottom rows of teeth is considered fuctional?
25 millimeters
normal ROM is 35-55 millimeters, but only needs 25-35 millimeters for everyday activities
which biological energy system is the primary source of adenosine triphosphate at rest?
oxidative system
primary source of ADP at rest and low intensity activity.
uses primary carbohydrates (70%) and fats (30%)
elastic shrinker is for?
edema control and residual limb shaping
due to the possible stress on the incision site, elastic shrinkers are not recommended until the sutures have been removed from the amputation site
excessive space between the acromion and the head of the humerus while at rest may be?
instability
Ludington’s test
positive - rupture of the long head of the biceps if absence of movement in the biceps tendon
patient clasp both hands behind the head with fingers interlocked, patient is then asked to alternately contract and relax the biceps muscles.
a child with right torticollis would most likely present with plagiocephaly in the area of the
left occipitoparietal bone
due to pressure placed on left occipitoparietal bone during lying supine
