The standard of care is based upon professional standards and state practice acts.
Scope of practice
This is used to MANAGE the severity of inflammation and REDUCE secondary injury.

The application of modality at the WRONG period of the HEALING process will result in ___.
a) Secondary Hyperalgesia
b) Faster healing
c) Secondary healing
d) Slower healing
d) Slower healing
This occurs because of a lack oxygen (hypoxia) in the area of injury.
Secondary injury
Fast or high-intensity stresses cause these types/classifications of injury (macro trauma)
Acute injury
In this type of circuit, electrical current can take one of several pathways.
a) direct
b) alternating
c) series
d) parallel
d) parallel
This electrode is always the negative (-) pole.
a) Negatode
b) Posinode
c) Anode
d) Cathode
d) Cathode
The stage of inflammation where symptoms diminish 14 to 31 days post-injury.
Subacute inflammatory
Pain that is produced by normally NONPAINFUL STIMULI, such as a butterfly on your arm.
Hyperesthesia
This electrode is always the positive (+) pole.
a) Negatode
b) Posinode
c) Anode
d) Cathode
c) Anode
The amount of pain that a person CAN or is WILLING to withstand.
Pain Tolerance
The body's system allows for recovery of INTERSTITIAL FLUIDS found in swelling and edema.
Venous system
The current has a direction of flow of electrons that CHANGE from positive to negative
a) alternating
b) direct
c) indirect
d) pulsed
a) alternating
What are the five signs of inflammation?
- loss of sensation
- cold
- heat
- pain
- loss of function
- redness
- atrophy
- pale color
- swelling
- heat
- pain
- loss of function
- redness
- swelling
The body's system that allows for the recovery of SOLID MATTER found in edema.
Lymphatic system
Monophasic
Which of the following is NOT a factor that should be considered when choosing a therapeutic modality?
a) does the modality promote healing of the injured tissues (directly or indirectly)?
b) can the energy being produced affect the target tissues?
c) what is the cost of using the modality?
d) does the modality improve patient outcomes?
c) what is the cost of using the modality?
The individual section of a pulse that rises above or drops below the baseline:
Phase duration
What are the short-term goals used for rehabilitation? And why is setting short-term goals important?
Short-term goals in rehabilitation are used as a series of attainable goals, for the patient to be actively involved in planning the process of his or her injury. They are important because the patient should be able to attain their goals successfully while increasing their skills and abilities as they advance in their program.
To be able to "play in my senior basketball game" or "walk up and down the stairs unassisted" are examples of this.
Long-Term Goals
The maximum distance that the pulse rises above or drops below the baseline.
a) pulse duration
b) amplitude
c) isoelectric point
d) pulse charge
b) amplitude

5) Humidity, Climate, and Oxygen Tension
6) Health, Age, and Nutrition
7) Edema
8) Hemorrhage
