*What is the principle used to increase cardiorespiratory efficiency and strength gains?
The SAID principle. Specific Adaptations to Impose Demands
*What is involved with increasing core stability?
Increasing strength in the muscles of the lumbar, abdominals, and hip/pelvis
*What is the difference between isometric, isotonic and isokinetic exercise?
Isometric-contractions with no ROM (rehab)
Isotonic- eccentric/concentric contractions through ROM
Isokinetic- speed regulated, variable accommodating resistance (expensive machines)
What is the definition of flexibility?
Range of motion around a join
*What are the four different methods of stretching?
Ballistic, Dynamic, PNF, and Static
*What is the main difference between aerobic and anaerobic exercise?
Aerobic activities use oxygen and are a longer duration. Anaerobic activities use stored energy in the body and are shorter in duration.
What principles are used in interval training?
Distance, time, rest, reps are all manipulated in interval training.
*What are the main stabilizing ligaments that support the ankle?
Lateral: anterior tibio-fibular ligament, anterior talo-fibular ligament, calcaneo fibular ligament
Medial: Deltoid
*What is the step by step procedure to go through when evaluating an ankle sprain?
1. Evaluation/Observation (for deformity) 2. Get a history (has this injury happened before?) 3. Get the mechanism (how did this happen?) 4. Palpate- bones, ligaments, tendons 5. ROM (1st active-if good active with resistance, if bad passive) 6. perform ankle functional testing
*What is the main mechanism to cause an injury to the deltoid ligament?
Eversion ankle sprain
*What are the specific tests used to evaluate ankle ligament instability and what ligaments are they testing for?
3 test:
Anterior Drawer Test: Ant. talo-fib lig (lateral ankle structure) stabilize tibia and fibula, place hand on calcaneus and pull forward on heal.
Talar Tilt: calcaneofibular (inversion), deltoid (with eversion) inverting or everting the talus of the foot
Kleiger test: ant. tib-fib lig, interosseous membrane. tests for a high ankle sprain. dorsiflex exteriorly rotate eversion
*What are the 4 movements of the ankle?
dorsiflextion, planterflextion, inversion and eversion
*What is involved with a high ankle sprain?
Also called a syndesnotic ankle sprain. Interosseous membrane anterior tibiofibular lig.
*What test is used to determine if the athlete has ruptured an Achilles Tendon?
Thompson test- athlete laying face down with foot hanging off the table. trainer squeezes gastroc to see if foot planterflexes. If not positive test for Achilles rupture.
*What are the signs and symptoms that an athlete with a lower leg compartments syndrome will display?
Signs: we can see it lower leg is red, shiny, taught in appearance.
Symptoms: What the athlete tells you-burning sensation in lower leg, foot falling asleep because of pressure on the nerve.
How would you examine for Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome in an athlete?
Overuse, stress reaction- pain on inside but can't point to one spot-alter activity. If in one spot-stress fracture- perform compression/ percussion test.
What is the difference between a 5th Metatarsal head avulsion fracture and a Jones fracture?
Difference in locations and how it heals; A Jones fx is farther up (1-1.5 in) the 5th metatarsal towards the toe and will be harder to heal
What is Athletes Foot?
a fungus
*What is the cause of a plantar wart?
A virus.
What is the immediate treatment for an ankle sprain?
RICEI-rest, ice, compression, elevation, immobilization
*What is tibio-fibular syndesmosis?
A high ankle sprain.
What does the plantar ligament help support?
plantar fascia supports the inner longitudinal arch.
*What is involved with a Lisfranc injury?
The toes spread apart due to injury of the ligaments that extends between the medial cuneiform and the 2nd metatarsal.
*With an inversion ankle sprain what ligaments are generally injured?
The anterior talo-fibular lig
What are the ROM for Inversion, Eversion, Dorsiflextion, and Plantarflexion?
Dorsiflexion=20-30 degrees, planterflexion=50 degrees, inversion=20 degrees, eversion= 10 degrees
*What is the technical name for the Spring ligament and what is it's function?
Calcaneo-navicular ligament-helps support the interlongitudinal arch.
Please explain the terms agonist and antagonist as it relates to a muscle contraction.
Agonist muscle movement makes motion such as contracting a limb. antagonist movement opposes this motion.
Please explain the terms hypertrophy and atrophy as it relates to muscle involvement.
Hypertrophy- increasing muscle size
Atrophy-loosing muscle size
*What is involved with the SAID principle?
Overloading the system to see improvements in strength or other factors.
Please explain the tissue response to healing.
Inflammation-swelling, Repair-collagen fibers (endothelial fibroblastic cells), Heal- remodle
*What is the difference between an eccentric and concentric muscle contraction?
Eccentric muscle contraction lengthens where as concentric muscle contractions shortens.
What area does the plantar fasica ligament help support?
Inner longitudinal arch
What is involved with a bunion on the 1st MTP joint?
1st Meditarsal Flangial Joint - inflammations of the bursa sac (spacer can help to realign)
What could be a possible complication from a medial head gastroc muscle tear?
excessive swelling in calf can cause a blood clot aka deep vein thrombosis
What does the term Pes Cavus describe?
a high arch
What bones make up the subtalar joint?
Talus, Calcanious
