The application of modality at the WRONG period of the HEALING process will result in ___.

a) Secondary Hyperalgesia 

b) Faster healing 

c) Secondary healing

The stage of inflammation where symptoms diminish 14 to 31 days post-injury.

Subacute inflammatory

300

Pain that is produced by normally NONPAINFUL STIMULI, such as a butterfly on your arm.

300

This electrode is always the positive (+) pole.

a) Negatode

b) Posinode 

c) Anode 

d) Cathode

c) Anode

300

The amount of pain that a person CAN or is WILLING to withstand.

Pain Tolerance

300

The body's system allows for recovery of INTERSTITIAL FLUIDS found in swelling and edema.

- pain 

- loss of function

- redness

- atrophy 

- pale color 

- swelling

- heat 

- pain

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?

500

The individual section of a pulse that rises above or drops below the baseline:

Phase duration

500

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. 

500

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

500

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
