TRUE OR FALSE
The 3 types of ROM testing are ACTIVE , PASSIVE & RESISTED
TRUE
is a movement that straightens or opens a joint.
EXTENSION
other term for lateral rotation. this movement allows the limb to swing away from the midline
EXTERNAL ROTATION
Cervical Extension, tests which myotome?
C2
What is the anatomical position?
he head is upright and facing forward. Both feet pointing forwards, arms down to the side with palms forward (thumbs pointed away from the body)
Numbness, paresthesia and radiating pain could mean that the client is just being a drama queen?
FALSE.
NERVE COMPRESSION
______________ of a joint brings a limb medially towards the body's midline
ADDUCTION
what are the neck movements?
please demonstrate
LATERAL FLEXION, LATERAL ROTATION, FLEXION, EXTENSION
Back, upper buttock, anterior thigh and knee, medial lower leg tests for which Dermatome?
L3
A muscle with the opposite action of the prime mover is called?
ANTAGONIST MUSCLE
Fascial line is a vertical line created by a weight hanging on the end of a string that is used for assessments?
FALSE.
PLUMB LINE
this movement happens when then limb turns in toward the midline.
What is the other term for this movement?
MEDIAL ROTATION
INTERNAL ROTATION
If a person performs a squat, what movements are occurring in the hip, knee and ankle?
hip flexion, knee flexion, dorsiflexion
is an area of skin that is mainly supplied by a single spinal nerve. Each of these spinal nerves relay sensation from a particular region of the skin to the brain
DERMATOME
this is the principal muscle involved and is called the prime mover
AGONIST MUSCLE
A goniometer is an instrument that either measures an angle or allows an object to be rotated to a precise angular position?
is movement that bends the joint or brings the bones closer together.
FLEXION
what are the differences between eversion, inversion of the ankle and pronation and supination of the ankle?
eversion and inversion only moves in one plane (frontal)
pronation adn supination are triplanar ( frontal, saggital, horizontal)
refers to the muscles served by a spinal nerve root. A ____________ is, therefore, a set of muscles innervated by a specific, single spinal nerve.
MYOTOMES
This muscle assists in the movement being performed and can also be a fixator that stabilizes the muscle’s origin.
SYNERGIST MUSCLE
ROM should be fast because everyone is busy and no one has time for assessments
FALSE.
ROM should be steady and slow. Always perform proper assessments to ensure you are giving the best and safest treatment plan to your client
moves a limb lateral away from the midline. This happens along the frontal plane and only pertain to appendages.
ABDUCTION
what are the different scapular movements?
please demonstrate.
ELEVATION, DEPRESSION, RETRACTION, PROTRACTION, UPWARD ROTATION, DOWNWARD ROTATION
Ankle plantarflexion tests for which myotome
S1
what is the difference between concentric, eccentric and isometric contraction?
concentric contraction- the muscle tension rises to meet the resistance then remains stable as the muscle shortens.
eccentric contraction- the muscle lengthens as the resistance becomes greater than the force the muscle is producing.
isometric muscle contraction- the muscle fires (or activates with a force and tension) but there is no movement at a joint
