Lymphedema

Presents as swelling over the limb. The most common integumentary complication is cellulitis

Venous insufficiency ulcer

Involves the medial leg, irregular in shape, hyperpigmentation around the skin

Cellulitis

Characterized by expanding local erythema, palpable lymph nodes, fever, and chills. Mostly caused by cuts, abrasions, insect bites, and local burns

Osteomyelitis

Infection of the bone. Pain, fever, edema, erythema, tenderness

Hematocrit values

Men 41-50% normal


Women 36-48%

Infection

Influence white blood cell count

Ulnar nerve entrapment

At level of hamate (tunnel of Guyon): strengthening exercises for lumbricals and interossei (squeeze therapy putty between the sides of the finger)


At cubital tunnel: squeeze hand grip with elastic band resistance

Median nerve impingement at level of carpal tunnel

Practice pinching between thumb and the tip of the index finger

Median nerve impingement at level of the wrist

Oppose thumb to metacarpal phalangeal joint of each finger

Adhesive capsulitis

Full external rotation can be achieved, doesn't happen with young people

Atraumatic instability

Apprehension when shoulder is passively positioned in abduction and external rotation

Acromioclavicular separation

Closed pack position is at 90°

Superior labral tear

Apprehension at abduction and external rotation, but cause is traumatic with sudden onset

Talar tilt test

Used to evaluate integrity of the calcaneofibular ligament

Ankle anterior drawer test

Used to evaluate the integrity of the anterior talofibular ligament

Compression of the distal shafts of the tibia and fibula

Used to test for syndesmosis injury, includes anterior tibiofibular ligament

Squeezing posterior lower leg with the ankle in neutral dorsiflexion

Used to test the integrity of the Achilles tendon

Prostate enlargement

Difficulty initiating the urine stream

Test for functional horizontal abduction

Performed in sitting or standing position. Horizontal adduction is performed in supine

Test for posterior capsular tightness

Side lying, scapula fixed in retraction, shoulder moves in horizontal adduction

Anterior interosseous syndrome (Kiloh-Nevin)

Inability to flex distal phalanx of thumb and index due to entrapment of anterior interosseous nerve

Entrapment of radial nerve

All extensor muscles of forearm will be affected

Entrapment of posterior interosseous nerve

Results in functional wrist drop

Ulnar nerve entrapment

Cannot fully adduct little fingers and hold in abducted and extended

Tingling and numbness extending from neck to thumb and index

Involves median nerve. Shoulder external rotation and abduction can test for that

Radial nerve test

Shoulder medial rotation

Junctional rhythm (heart)

P wave would be absent

Left thoracolumbar scoliosis with level hips

C curve is concave on right. This results in shortened trunk musculature on the right (quadratus lumborum)

Hypothyroidism

Exhibit muscle aches and bradycardia

Primary focus for a child with athetoid CP

Facilitating cocontraction and encouraging control in voluntary movement. Child lacks the control, so don't go to strengthening before teaching good control

Things to monitor when taking warfarin

International normalized ratio. Had to be between 2-3. If high, risk of bleeding during activity increases

PCL

Stretched during closed kinetic chain knee extension

ACL

Stretched during closed kinetic chain knee flexion
