Hip Hiking during swing

Compensation for:


Weak DF

Glut. med. weakness

Anthropometric measurements: def

Measurement of size and proportions of human body

Anthrometric measurement: examples

Common: height, weight, BMI


Leg length


Volumetric measurement


Circumferential measurement

Vital sign importance

1. Indicators of general health or physiological stat.




2.Compares pts. reading to normal values




3. Abnormal values- indicator of illness, trauma, exs, other physical conditions

Importance of establishing base value: what type of pts

Elderly (over 65)


Very young (<2)


sedentary


previous or current cardio problem


recovery from sx or trauma

Normal resting HR/pulse

Infant 100-130 beats per min (BPM)


Child: 80-100


Adult: 60-100

Sites of pulse/ HR assessment

Temporal


carotid


brachial


radial (most common)


femoral


Popliteal


Dorsal Pedal


Posterior Tibial


APex of heart (stethoscope)

Tachycardia

Rapid HR > 100bpm

Bradycardia

Slow HR <60 BPM

Pulse Oximetry

Devise to measure the level of O2 in the blood (O2 saturation)

Normal O2 saturation

95-100%

O2 saturation can be an indicator for what?

1st sign of a blood clot-> embolism-> lung= pulmonary embolism

Systolic Pressure

Point of contraction of heart m. (blood against the arterial walls)

Diastolic Pressure

Measurement exerted by blood against the arterial walls when the heart is NOT contracting

Korotkoff's sounds

BP SOUNDS:


phase 1- 1st clear sound (systolic pressure)


2- muffled or swishing sounds


3- louder and clearer sounds


4- abruptly muffled sounds (diastolic pressure)


5- sound disapears

Normal Blood preasure

Infant: 60-90/ 30-55 mmHg


child: 90-110/ 50-70 mmHg


Adult: 120/80 mmHg or lower

Hypertension

=> 140/ 90 mmHg

Prehypertension:

120-139/ 80-89

Stage 1 hypertension

140-159/ 90-99

Stage 2 Hypertension

=>160/ 100

Normal Respiration

Newborn: 33-45




1 year: 25-35




10 years: 15-20




adults: 12-20

Tachypnea

>20 respiration/min

Bradypnea

<10-12 respiration/min

Respiration ratio

Normal: 1:2




Abnorma: 1:3 or 1:4

Hyperpnea

Increased rate and depth of breaths

Hypopnea

Decreased rate and depth of breaths

Orthopnea

Inability to breathe when in supine position


ie. due to obese, heart disease

Biot's

Irregular breathing, breaths vary in depth and rate with periods of apnea; often associated with increased cranial pressure or damage to the medula

Cheyne-strokes

Decreasing rate and depth of breathing with periods of apnea; can occur due to CNS damage

Apna:

absence of spontaneous breathing


(common w/ sleep apnea

Tidal Volume (TV): def, classification

Amount of air that moves in and out of lungs with each breath




classification: normal, deep, shallow

Common pain scales

1. McGill pain questionnaire: 2 part, 70?s




2. Numerical Rating scale (typical)




3. Visual analog scale (higher sensitive scale)

Posture: definition

Holding a particular static position

Postural control: definition

ability to move effectively and efficiently in a variety of environments & situation w/o falling




*dynamic*
