16
Q

true or false

bone and fat have good water conductivity

17
Q

true or false

muscle and skin have high resistance

18
Q

true or false

bone and fat have high resistance

19
Q

what does penetration of cryotheray dependent on

A

•Local temperature gradient •Treatment surface area covered •Thickness and characteristics of tissue treated

20
Q

how deep is the superficial layer

21
Q

how deep is the tissue layer

22
Q

why do ppl use cryotherapy

A

-control pain and reduce secondary tissue injury

23
Q

what effects does cryotherapy have on sensory receptor effects

A

Decreases sensory receptor conduction velocities
•A-delta and C fibers slow conduction velocities further decreased
•Augments pain modulation
•Faster A-alpha and A-beta also slowed to an extent

24
Q

true or false

cryotherapy Effect is primarily superficial and directly affects cutaneous blood vessels and cutaneous nerve receptors

25
what are the hemodynamic effects
immediate response of vasoconstriction to arterioles and venules
26
what temp does the skin need to be reduced to inorder for optimal decrease of blood flow and yield vasodilation
57F
27
what temp does the skin need to be reduced to for analgesia
58F
28
what is hunter's response
Histamine like release yields vasodilatation as a self defense response
29
what are the metbolic effects of cryotherapy
Secondary ischemic injury –Hypoxia –Inadequate fuel substrates –Inadequate waste removal
30
true or false | Decreased muscle spasm by decreasing muscle spindle activity
true
31
true or false | Ia and II fibers run to dorsal horn of spinal cord and respond to stretch
true
32
what are the four patient sensation during cold appliction
- cold - burning - aching - analgesia(numbness)
33
what are the three types of compression
- circumferential - collateral (pressure on both side aka aircast) - focal (U-shaped horseshoe pad)
34
what has the greatest effect at 90° perpendicular to the ground at 45° the effect of gravity is 71% comparatively
elevation
35
what are the precautions of cold therapy
- superficial nerve - elevation of blood pressure (hypertensive patients only) - wound healing - psychological consideration
36
what are the contraindication for cryotherapy
•Reynaud’s phenomena •Cold urticaria •Cold paroxysmal hemoglobinuria and cryoglobulinemia •Compromised circulation or sensation
37
what is cold urticaria
- allergy to cold | - histamine response to cold stimuli
38
what is paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria
* Rate of RBC breakdown exceeds hemoglobin binding with other proteins * Excess hemoglobin excreted in the urine * Yields darkened urine and back pain
39
what is cryoglobulinemia
• Presence of abnormal proteins in the blood that become dark and thickened due to cold exposure
