cognitive

tendinosis collagen

collagen disorientation, disorganization, and fiber separation by increased proteoglycan content, increased cellularity, neovascularization, with focal necrosis

ACL Injury (non-contact)

combined movements: Foot planted - Knee hyperextension, genu valgus and tibial rotation -Planting and pivoting in the opposite direction

rupture collagen

complete disruption of fibers

Dominance of hamstrings over glute max-->

decreased flexibility of the glute max --> decreased hip flexion ROM --> Excessive lumbar spine flexion, Excessive hamstring use --> overuse cramping, decreased flexibility --> injury

As tension in the muscle increases

discharge of the GTOs increases

Spondylolisthesis treatment (6)

-Flexion exercise, avoid extension -Patient education -Modalities for pain -Positional stretches -Core Stabilization -Aerobic Conditioning

In a patient's medical record you see "knee flexion contracture." What does it mean? -The patient cannot actively contract the hamstrings to flex the knee. -The patient is unable to actively extend the knee through the full range of motion (ROM) despite full passive knee extension. -The quadriceps muscle group is tight and limits full, passive knee flexion. -Full, passive knee extension is not possible.

Which of the following is true about managing a tear of the medial or lateral meniscus? After meniscus repair, initially avoid knee flexion beyond 60° to 70° during weight-bearing exercises for about 2 months because flexion beyond this range can displace the repaired meniscus in a posterior direction. A potential complication of a medial meniscus repair is intraoperative damage to or postoperative entrapment of the saphenous nerve. After meniscus repair, the knee is immobilized in approximately 45° of flexion. A tear of the peripheral portion (outer zone) of a meniscus does not lend itself well to surgical repair because this portion of the meniscus is avascular and does not heal well.

As the result of repetitive, submaximal stress of a muscle or tendon.

precautions for stretching (5)

Avoid vigorous stretching of muscles and connective tissue that have been immobilized for a long period of time. Connective tissue will lose their tensile strength after prolonged immobilization If the patient experiences pain after 24 hours after stretches, too much force was used and the patient has an inflammatory phase occurring. Avoid overstretching weak muscles Patients that have had multiple cortisone injections may have weakened tissue

Which of the following is true of resistance training for the patient with known osteoporosis? Only isometric exercises should be prescribed in order to eliminate torque on the bones. Evidence has shown that resistance exercise is an essential element in the rehabilitation, conditioning, and aerobic programs of patients both at risk for and with known osteoporosis.

Resistance training is contraindicated for patients with known osteoporosis due to the risk of pathological stress fracture.

Why is The "minimally invasive knee arthroplasty" chosen over other surgical approaches? It is less disruptive to the soft tissue, with increased rate of postoperative recovery and less postoperative pain. It is an arthroscopic procedure, so the rehabilitation is shorter. The incidence of intraoperative complications is lower. It is easier to perform and therefore is the choice of the less-experienced surgeon.

Exercise programs developed specifically to increase strength will require a progression that focuses on: Increasing the speed of performance. Increasing the number of repetitions. Increasing the resistance. Increasing the duration of the exercise.

increasing the resistance

A patient has mild joint swelling and pain during active ROM, but resisted tests of the muscles that cross the swollen joints do not cause pain.

Your patient is lying supine and you are strengthening the iliopsoas on the (R) using manual resistance. The main reason you would want to place the patient's (L) hip and knee in flexion (foot planted on the table) is to: Place the pelvis in a slight anterior tilt so the trunk is more stable and the iliopsoas can generate greater tension. Improve the mechanical efficiency of the iliopsoas on the (R). Stretch the erector spinae muscles in the lumbar region of the back. Stabilize the pelvis in a neutral to posteriorly rotated position to lessen the possibility of an anterior pelvic tilt occurring, placing stress on the low back.

When a patient is involved in a stretching program, it is recommended that you: Ice the muscle to be stretched before stretching. Avoid active exercises for warm-up prior to stretching because it may increase excitability of the muscle tissue and prevent relaxation during stretching. Warm up the tissues to be stretched by engaging in light-intensity active exercise or using therapeutic heat prior to stretching. Stretch no more than once a week.
