Why tape ?
Prevention of injury
Pain relief
Swelling management
Provides proprioceptives and Neural feedback
Improved efficiency of movement and awareness of affected area
Effects of strapping
Improving proprioception by:
Stimulating skin receptors
Normalizing muscle tone
Reduce pain perception
Mechanism of action for strapping
Mechanical
Proprioceptive
Facilitation of correct motor control
Advantages of taping
Immediate effect
Patient specific
Easily adjusted to match patient and condition
Inexpensive if applied for short period of time
Facilitate rehabilitation
Tension can be varied over a specific structure
FMS (Functional movement screen)
Developed to help clinicians screen individuals for risk of injury/dysfunctional or performance limiting movement pattern.
FMS movement tests
Deep squat
Hurdle step
In line lunge
Shoulder mobility
Active straight leg raise
Trunk stability
Rotatory stability
FMS clearing tests
Impingement test
Press up test
Posterior rocking test
SFMA (selective functional movement assessment)
Meant to be used in a diagnostic capacity for musculoskeletal assessment when pain is present
Explain 3 parts of return to play
Return to participation
Return to performance
Return to sports
Factors to consider when pt has to Return to play
Physiological healing must’ve taken place
Impairments and function limitations addressed
Risk of injuries reduced
Risk of safety of others
Regulations
Functional capacity and requirements
Negative effects of poor prognosis
Medical complications
Litigations
Loss of trust
Reduced sports participation
Miscommunication
Immediate treatment for ST
Peace & love
Functions of vertebral column
Protection
Base for attachment
Structural support
Flexibility and mobility
Mineral storage
And production of red blood cells
Management for cervical injuries
Soft or hard collar for 6/52
Management of lumbar injuries
Bedrest for 4/52
Mobilize with brace
CI for traction
No movement of fracture site
Do not remove traction
No unilateral shoulder flexion above 90
No bilateral shoulder flexion above 160
No unilateral shoulder depression
Resisted arm exercises done bilaterally
CI for lumber bedrest
No movement of fracture site
No weight bearing through the spine
No resisted hip flexion
No pelvic tilting
No hip abd more than 40
Classification of cervical spine injuries
Fergusen and Allen
Extension injury
Compression injury
Rotation injury
Flexion compression
Flexion distraction
C1 fracture
Jefferson
Compression injury
Fracture of the ring of atlas
No neuro deficit
C2 fracture
Odontoid fracture
High velocity falls or accidents
Fall on face or forehead (osteoporotic)
What is spondylolisthesis
A spinal disorder in which one vertebra slips forward onto the bone below
What is Spinal stenosis
Narrowing of the spinal canal at several levels due to degeration in the disc and the facet joint.
Indication for spinal surgery
Instability
Stenosis
Failure of conservative management
Infections or tumors
Abnormal curvature of spinal
Cx surgery: Home Advice
Wear collar always for 6/52
Sleep on sides or back
Neck must be in neutral to avoid cx strain
Shoulder ROM and rolls
Deep neck flexor activation
No heavy lifting or overhead act
