What are debilitating neurohormonal effects of pain?
200

What are the types of mechanical forces that can be applied to biological tissues?
200

What is superficial heat therapy?
200
This is an exercise tool that provides a low, unstable surface to help improve balance.
What are balance discs?

Inhibiting cyclooxygenase-2.
What is the primary mode of analgesic action of an NSAID?

400
This grade of patellar luxation remains out most of the time but can be manually reduced with stifle extension.
What is Grade III?
400

What are locoregional anesthesias?
500
The five categories of weight-bearing.
What are full, partial, toe-touching, touch-down/feather, and non?
500
This modality changes cell membrane permeability, facilitates collagen synthesis, stimulates fibroblast development, and increases angiogenesis.
What is low-level laser therapy?

What is the Snoopy exercise?
500
This is the most common traumatic injury to the spinal cord.
What is intervertebral disk herniation?
500
This drug type is profoundly synergistic with opioids; its use can result in vasoconstriction resulting in hypertension and bradycardia while maintaining central perfusion.
