define somatic dysfunction

"impaired or altered function of related components of the somatic (body framework) system; skeletal, arthrodial, and myofascial structures; and related vascular, lymphatic, and neural elements"

define end feel

-sensation which is experienced by an examiner as a barrier to further motion at the end of a passive ROM -felt when performing overpressure at the end of the motion *abnormal end feel suggests need for intervention

a physical examination should consist of...

-vital signs -posture analysis and gait analysis -scanning examination (upper and lower quarter scan) -joint examination (AROM, PROM, MMT) -neurologic tests -functional assessment -special tests -joint play -palpation

Kaltenborn's approach emphasizes...

... translatoric joint play movements ◦Use of grades and sustained mobilizations ◦Concave-convex rule ◦arthrokinematics and osteokinematics in both assessment and treatment of articular motion dysfunctions

the quantity of joint play movement is measured on a scale from __-__

0-6

the 3 effects of joint mobilization are

1. MECHANICAL effects (•Stretching of joint restrictions •Breaking of adhesions •Alter positional relationships •Decrease barriers to normal motion) 2. NEUROPHYSIOLOGICAL effects (•Activation of type Aβ articular mechano- and proprioceptors •Activation of type Aβ cutaneous and muscular receptors •Altered nociception) 3. PSYCHOLOGICAL effects (•Confidence gained through improvement •Positive effects from manual contact •Response to audibles)

2 types of movement

1. classical (physiological) ex: flexion and extension 2. accessory (intra-articular) ex: roll and glide

before a joint mobilization you should... Examine... Identify... Prepare... Protect...

1. perform a thorough examination 2. identify direction of restriction and determine technique to be used 3. prepare the soft tissue (warm up, soft tissue mobilizations, etc..) 4. protect any neighboring hypermobility

3 types of joint play

assessing the quantity of movement allows us to determine...

Determine if there is any limitation of range (hypomobility) or excess of range (hypermobility/laxity) both are determined by assessing passive physiologic movement

T or F: tribonucleation / cavitation is a goal of a joint manipulation

when you hear the "Nordic Approach" what pioneer should you think of

Freddy Kaltenborn

what pioneer is responsible for developing the use of gentle oscillatory movements?

Geoffrey Maitland *can be used prior to manipulations to more accurately attain the motion barrier (oscillations are often superior to thrust techniques)

describe the application of Kaltenborn's Grades

Grade I ◦Distraction is used with all gliding motions ◦Low intensity Grade II ◦Progressive intensity from the slack zone (SZ) to the transition zone (TZ) up to the point of tissue resistance Grade III ◦Stretch mobilization beyond the barrier of tissue resistance **Amount of time stretch is applied is more important than force used**

describe the rationale of Kaltenborn's Grades

Grade I ◦Pain relief ◦7-10 sec for several cycles Grade II ◦Initial treatment to determine sensitivity ◦Pain relief, relaxation, joint nutrition ◦Maintain joint play when ROM is not allowed Grade III ◦Used to stretch the joint structures ◦Increase joint play ◦6 sec stretch followed by partial release and repeat

describe the application of Maitland's Grades

Grade I ◦Small amplitude near beginning of range Grade II ◦Large amplitude that goes well into the range, occupying any part of the range that is free of stiffness or muscle spasm Grade III ◦Large amplitude that moves into stiffness or muscle spasm Grade IV ◦Small amplitude moving into stiffness *Grade V (not a Maitland technique) ◦HVLA thrust

describe Kaltenborn's grade I of translatoric movement

Grade I "Loosening" Movement is an extremely small traction force which produces no appreciable increase in joint separation; nullifies normal compressive forces acting on the joint (hand is making contact with the joint and just initiating movement nothing much is happening to the joint or the tissues)

describe Maitland's grade I of joint mobilization

Grade I: Small-amplitude rhythmic oscillations are performed at the beginning of the range; manual vibrations

describe Kaltenborn's grade II of translatoric movement

Grade II "Tightening" Movement first takes up the slack in the tissues and then tightens the tissues (tissues start to feel taut; 1st stop of resistance)

describe Kaltenborn's grade III of translatoric movement

Grade III "Stretching" Movement is applied after the slack has been taken up and all tissue become taut to stretch the capsule and surrounding tissues (tissue is actually being stretched)

describe the rationale of Maitland's Grades

Grades I-II ◦Used for joints limited by pain or muscle guarding ◦Inhibitory effect of oscillations ◦Improve joint nutrition Grade III-IV ◦Used for stretching maneuvers ◦Vary speed for different effects *Grade V (Not a Maitland technique) ◦High-velocity low-amplitude (HVLA) thrust manipulation ◦Snap adhesions

for someone in the active inflammation stage of healing the level of reactivity would be ______ (high/moderate/low). and grades ___- ___ mobilization should be used

HIGH (pain before end range) Grades I-II
