An OTR is evaluating a client with an upper extremity injury as a result of a motor vehicle accident. As part of the assessment, the OTR decides to administer the “push out” test and notices the client is displaying serratus anterior weakness. Which therapeutic exercise would be advisable for the OTR to initiate with the client?
A. Seated in a chair, the client performs range of motion exercises of the shoulder, specifically internal and external rotation
B. In supine, have the client make a fist and flex the shoulder at 90 degrees; while the OTR supports the scapula, the client pushes up against gravity
C. Sitting upright in a chair, the client performs shoulder extension exercises using a low resistance theraband
D. In supine, the client holds a 1 lb dumb bell with the elbow flexed to 90 degrees completing shoulder internal and external range of motion exercises
An OTR is providing an intervention to a client who has a diagnosis of lateral epicondylitis. The OTR introduces ice massage as a preparatory activity. Which part of the upper extremity is MOST APPROPRIATE for the OTR to provide ice massage?
A. The common flexor attachment of the elbow
B. The common extensor attachment of the elbow
C. The pronator quadratus
D. The pronator teres
An OTR is providing instructions for a wrist and hand exercise home program. Which statement BEST describes the correct method for upper extremity exercise?
A. It is preferred to perform longer and intensive exercises with a rest day in between.
B. Do wrist extension exercise with finger flexion if there is extrinsic flexor tightness.
C. Perform exercise for metacarpophalangeal (MP) flexion with wrist flexion and extension; use an orthosis if needed.
D. Forearm rotation exercise should be done with the upper arm locked at the side of the body.
An individual is diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome. Which of the following BEST reflects what the client is experiencing?
