afterload.

In an acute care or trauma setting, the PTA may be using vital signs and the A.B. C. D. E. method of quick assessment which stands for

airway, breathing, circulation, disability, and exposure

A common strategy for history taking in the trauma unit is the mnemonic AMPLE:

allergies, medications, past medical history, last meal, and events of injury.

Fast-twitch fibers (type IIB) are characterized by a fast contractile response,

and are recruited for activities requiring power.

Fast-twitch fibers (type IIA) have characteristics of both type I and type IIB fibers

and are recruited for both anaerobic and aerobic activities.

Slow-twitch fibers (type I) are characterized by a slow contractile response,

and are used preferentially in low-intensity exercise.

Modified versions of the Timed Up-and-Go Test with secondary cognitive and motor tasks can be used by clinicians to

assess the influence of divided attention on balance control.

Muscle performance is the capacity of a muscle to do work

force x distance

Muscle strength is a broad term that refers to the extent that the contractile elements of muscle produce

force.

the hip joint may be flexed and extended in the sagittal plane, with movement occuring around a

frontal axis

Backward body sway results in activation first of the paraspinals followed by the

hamstrings.

With the hip positioned in 90° of flexion, hip internal and external rotation occurs

in the frontal plane around a sagittal axis

Movements at the hip joint

includes flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and internal and external rotation.

Myocardial oxygen consumption is a measure of the oxygen consumed by the

myocardial muscle.

Dyspnea when the person is lying down is called

orthopnea

In response to a forward body sway, muscles are typically activated in a proximal to distal sequence: Abdominals beginning about 90 to 100 ms after perturbation onset followed by activation of the

quadriceps.

Studies over several decades have demonstrated that if light exercise is performed during the recovery period (active re- covery),

recovery from exercise occurs more rapidly than with total rest (passive recovery). Faster recovery with light exercise is probably the result of neural as well as circulatory influences.

Endurance (a measure of fitness) is the ability to work for prolonged periods of time and the ability to

resist fatigue.

The three elements of muscle performance-strength, power, and endurance-can all be enhanced by

resistance exercise.

Hip abduction and adduction occur in the frontal plane around a

sagittal axis

The rate of fiber growth (increase in cross-sectional area) is relatively consistent from birth to puberty. Change in fiber type distribution is relatively complete by the age of 1,

shifting from a predominance of type II fibers to a more balanced distribution of type I and type II fibers.

time.

Divided attention is when a person is doing

two tasks simultaneously

Hip rotation can be performed in the anatomical position, with movement occurring in the transverse plane around a

Recovery from acute exercise, in which the force-producing capacity of muscle returns to 90% to 95% of the pre-exercise capacity, usually takes

3 to 4 minutes, with the greatest proportion of recovery occurring in the first minute.

The resting pulse may be higher than normal with fever, anemia, infections, some medications, hyperthyroidism, anxiety, or pain.
