100

This type of connective tissue connects muscle to bone.

What is a tendon?

100

This is the body's initial response to trauma and is designed to protect and clean the injured area.

What is the inflammatory response?

100

This principle stands for Protection, Optimal Loading, Ice, Compression, and Elevation.

What is POLICE?

100

This type of exercise uses free weights, exercise equipment, or bands and is the most commonly used strengthening technique.

What are progressive resistance exercises?

100

This is the most important goal of first aid because excessive fluid can slow healing.

What is control swelling?

200

This type of tissue is responsible for coordinating and controlling body activities and is found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.

What is nervous tissue?

200

Swelling, redness, heat, and loss of function are signs and symptoms commonly associated with this phase.

What is the inflammatory response?

200

Restoring this allows an athlete to move a joint through its needed movement without restriction.$300

What is range of motion (ROM)?

200

This type of exercise uses a fixed speed with accommodating resistance and requires special equipment.

What are isokinetic exercises?

200

This type of stretching uses a quick, controlled movement through a range of motion.

What is dynamic stretching?

300

This voluntary muscle tissue attaches to bones and produces movement

What is skeletal muscle?

300

During this phase, new connective tissue begins forming as the inflammatory response comes to an end.

What is the fibroblastic repair phase?

300

Restoring this allows an athlete to move a joint through its needed movement without restriction.$300

What is core stability?

300

These exercises use a quick stretch of the muscle followed by a concentric contraction and are important for developing power.

What are plyometric exercises?

300

A self-massage technique that uses body weight and a cylindrical tool to apply pressure to your muscles and fascia

What is foam rolling?

400

This type of tissue lines organs and body cavities and is involved in protection, absorption, and secretion.

What is epithelial tissue?

400

This process involves the formation of new capillaries to provide blood supply and nutrients to healing tissue.

What is angiogenesis?

400

These exercises are commonly used early in rehabilitation when a joint is immobilized and involve contracting and relaxing without joint movement.

What are isometric exercises?


400

This rehabilitation component involves the brain and spinal cord interpreting sensory information so that muscles and joints can move in a controlled and coordinated way.

What is neuromuscular control?

400

This rehabilitation goal involves breaking sport skills into smaller components and gradually rebuilding them before returning to full activity.

What is functional progression?

500

Name the four major types of tissue discussed in this unit.

What are connective, muscle, epithelial, and nervous tissue?

500

This phase can last up to two years and involves tissue continuing to mature and strengthen.

What is the maturation and remodeling phase?

500

Name a goal of a well-designed rehabilitation program besides reducing pain and swelling.

What is:

restore ROM, reestablish core stability, restore/increase strength, endurance or power, reestablish neuromuscular control, improve balance, or functional progression.


500

After an injury, this system may have difficulty processing movement information together, causing previously established movement patterns to become less reliable. What system is being discussed?

What is the central nervous system (CNS)?  

500

Loss of movement can be caused by

What is

Resistant of muscle and tendon to stretch

Contracture of ligaments and capsules around the injured area
