Special Pops Exam 2 Flashcards
(39 cards)
Lower Body Limb Amputation Vascular DEF
- most common >50yo
- peripheral neuropathy (Diabetes2)
- peripheral vascular disease (PVD)
Lower Body Limb Amputation NonVascular DEF
- <50yo
- trauma
- tumors
- congenital deformity
Peripheral Neuropathy
- nerve damage
- weakness/clumsiness
- pain
- dec sensation of texture/temp
- impaired balance
Peripheral Vascular Disease
Physiological
- obstruction of arteries
- ischemia
- claudication
- slowed wound healing
Gangrene
- tissue death
- infection or ischemia
- revascularization or amputation
- sepsis
Exercise Considerations for Lower Body Amputee
- En. expend. is higher
- Skin/Stump issues (infection/(phant)px)
- Overuse of non involved limb
- Ex Response (amt musc remaining)
Exercise Testing for Lower Body Amputee
Functional -Walking capacity Modes -arm/leg/cycle ergometer -resistance machines
Exercise Prescription for lower body amputee
- incorp largest amt of musculature
- CV benefits
- Minimize injury/px
Spinal Cord Injury DEF
- trauma, infect, tumor (male 80%trauma)
- spina bifida
- multiple sclerosis
- impairments (sensoimotor, autonomic, physiological, locomotor)
Spinal Cord Injury Autonomic Nervous System
EFFERENT MOTOR
-paralyzed muscle fibers innervated by damaged nerve
AFFERENT SENSORY
-skin stim, musc tension, length/position, rate of movm
Spinal Cord Injury Degree of Impairment Spec
T6 and above
- respiration and motor ctrl depending on funct capaciy of ab muscles
- lack cntrl bladder, bowels, sex funct, trunk has full ROM
SCI Impairment levels
Nerve level and Damage -determine degree of motor, sensory, autonomic dysfunction Ex Related Prob -dec large muscle groups -insufficient CV stim
SCI Secondary Complications
SKIN Decubitus ulcers -chg BF (skin subcutaneus tissues) -dec elasticity -infection BONES osteoporosis/fx -no wtb, musc activity -longer to heal w/fx HO heterotopic ossification -hip/knees jt stiffening/fusion
Additional SCI Complications
MUSCLES spasticity hypertonia -exaggerated reflexes -grasping fine mtr control FLACIDITY atonia -grater musc and bone atrophy CONTRACTURES -shortening of musc
SCI precautions/modifications
SKIN -chg position -check for issues -cushion/strapping/suppor BONE -standing/harness -careful transfers/fall prevention JOINT -passive ROM -Empty bowel/urine bag
General Complications for SCI
- Thermoregulation
- UTI
- Pain UE
- Chronic Restrictive Pulmonary Disease
- Deep Vein Thrombosis
- Orthostatic hypotension
Diabetes hyperglycemic Symptoms
Type
- fatigue
- polydipsia/polyurea
- wt loss
- polyphagia
Hyperglycemic Sypmtoms Type 2
- blurred vision
- poor wound healing
- inc infections
- prolonged severe hyperglycemia
Hypoglycemia Symptoms
-tachycardia
-palpitations
-perspiration
-sensations of anxiety/hunger
-prolonged = neurogluopenia
(Drunk)
Type 1 Diabetes
- <30 yo
- autoimmune
- limits insulin (dont have insuling production)
- body destroys own beta cells and wont produce insulin
Type 2 Diabetes
- > 30 yo
- insulin resistance
- pancreas fatigues over time
- genetics/enviroment
- metabolic syndrome
Diabetes Complications
- CHD incidence 2-4 x higher
- Stroke 2-4 x higher
- hypertension
- retinopathy
- nephropathy
- neuropathy (peripheral/autonomic)
Diabetes Ex Rx
- keep log
- plan
- modify caloric intake
- adjust insulin
- good shoes
- mode (non/partial wt bearing)
Diabetes Ex Rx regarding BG
BG>250mm/dl= test urine, keytones =no ex
BG>300mm/d and no keytones =use caution
BG<100mg/dl= rule of 15s (15g 15min check)
