Grade v
Name the grade of the heart murmur -- barely audible, heard only in a quiet room and then with difficulty
Grade i
Loudest, still heard with entire stethoscope lifted just off the chest wall
Grade vi
Name the grade of the heart murmur -- Clearly audible, but faint
Grade ii
Name the grade of the heart murmur -- Loud, associated with a thrill palpable on the chest wall

What does S1 signal?
Beginning of systole
Where is S1 loudest?
apex
Where can you hear a split S1?
At the tricupid valve area, the left lower sternal border.
What is the S2 sound associated with?
the closure of the semilunar valves.
Where is the S2 the loudest?
Base
When does a S2 split occur
toward the end of insperation
What does a pulse deficit signal?
Signals a weak contraction of the ventricles; occurs with atrial fibrillation, premature beats, and heart failure
How doe you check for a pulse deficit?
auscultating the apical beat while simultaneously palpating the radial pulse.
If you found Subcutaneous nodules in the olecranon bursa and along extensor surface of the ulna what would this be signs of?
RA
What is tennis elbow?
Inflammation and local tenderness of Epicondyles, head of radius and tendons.
Chronic hyperplasia of the palmar fascia causes flexion contractures of the digits. 4th, then 5th and 3rd.
Dupuytren contractures
Who does Dupuytren contracture usually effect
men older than 40. occurs with diabetes, epilpsy, and alcoholic liver disease and inherited trait
Flexion contractures of the metacarpophalangeal jooint,then hyperextension of the proximal interphanlangel joint
Swan neck
kunkle looks as if it is being pushed through a buttonhole
Boutonniere deformity
Swan neck and boutoniiere deformity occurs with?
RA
fingers drift to the ulnar side because of stretching of the articular capsule and muscle imbalance. Also muscle athropy on dorsa of the hands
Ulnar deviation of dift
Characterized by hard, nontender nodules, 2-3cm or more.
Osteoarthristis
osteophytes of the distal interphalangeal joints are called?
Heberden nodes
osteophytes of the proximal interphalangela joints are called?
bouchard nodes
Hard, painless nodule over metatarsophalangeal joint.
Tophi w/chronic gout
metabolic disorder of disturbed purine metabolism, associated with elevated serum uric acid
Acute Gout
common deformmity from RA.
Hallux valgus
when hunching the shoulder forward and the tip of the clavicle dislocates
Dislocated shoulders
How do dislocated shoulders happen?
trauma involving abduction, extension, and rotation, falling on outstretched arm or diving into pool.
Characteristic hunched position and limited abduction of arm
Rotator cuff tear
How does Rotator cuff tears occur?
traumatic adduction while arm is held in abduction, fall on shoulder, throwing, or heavy lifting
What is the positive arm drop test?
if the arm is passively abducted at the shoulder, the person is unable to sustain the position and arm falls to side
What is the McMurray test used for?
torn meniscus
Decreased muscle tone or hypotonia muscle feels limp, soft, and flabby; muscle is weak and easily fatigued; limb feels like rag doll
Flaccidity
Increased tone or hypertonia; increased resistance to passive lengthening; then may suddenly give way
Spasticity
Constant state of resistance. resists passive movement in any direction dystonia
Rigidity
Type of rigidity in which the increased tone is released by degrees during passive ROM so it feels like small regular jerks
Cogwheel rigidity
What is Flaccidity associated with?
Lower motor neuron injury.

peripheral neurities, poliomyelitis, guillain-Barre
What is spasticity associated with?
Upper motor neuron injury to coticospinal motor tract
What is Rigidity associated with?
Injury to extrapyramidal motor tracts.

basal ganglia with parkinsonism
What is Gogwheel rigidity associated with?
Parkinsonism
