Physiologic Barrier
The point at which a patient can actively move any given joint is called:
Anatomic Barrier
The point at which a physician can passively move any given point (beyond would cause ligament, tendon or skeletal injury):
Restrictive Barrier
The point caused by somatic dysfunction that prevents motion to the physiologic barrier:
Pathologic Barrier
Another name for restrictive barrier is:
Tenderness
What is the only subjective component of TART?
Tenderness
The painful sensation produced by palpation of tissues where it should not occur is called:
Acute Tissue Texture Changes
Edematous, erythematous, bogginess, increased moisture and hypertonicity are characteristic of what?
Chronic Tissue Texture Changes
Cool dry skin, slight tension, decreased muscle tone, flaccid ropy and fibrotic are characteristic of what?
Severe or Sharp
Tenderness in acute somatic dysfunction are likely to be what?
Dull, achy or burning
Tenderness in chronic somatic dysfunctino are likely to be what?
Fryette's Laws
The rules that govern spinal motion are termed:
Opposite sides
In Type I somatic dysfunction, sidebending and rotation occur to what?
Neutral (N for neutral points opposite directions as do rotation and sidebending)
In Type I somatic dysfunction, would you expect to see flexion, extension or neutral positioning?
Same side
In Type II somatic dysfunction, sidebending and rotation occur to what?
Flexed or Extended
In Type II somatic dysfunction, would you expect to see flexion, extension, or neutral positioning?
One
How many vertebrae does Type II SD affect?
Multiple
How many vertebrae does Type I SD affect?
Rotation
In non-neutral (Type II) SD, which occurs first, Sidebending or Rotation?
Sidebending
In neutral (Type I) SD, which occurs first, Sidebending or Rotation?
Freyette's Law III
Initiating motion at any vertebral segment in any one plane of motion will modify the mobility in the other two planes is the definition of what?
Type I (with F, E, or N - C1 is the 1st so it is nuimber 1)
What is the principle SD of C1?
Type II (with F, E, or N - C2-C7 come after C1 so they are number 2)
What are the principle SD of C2?
Ease
Somatic Dysfunction is always named for the direction of:
Superior Vertebra
When naming a SD of a vertebral unit (2 vertebrae and the disc between) which should be used as your reference point?
BUM (Backward, upward and medial)
The orientation of the superior facts of the cervical vertebrae is:
BUL (Backward, upward and Lateral)
The orientation of the superior facts of the thoracic vertebrae is:
BM (Backward and Medial)
The orientation of the superior facets of the Lumbar vertebrae is:
Transverse
Flexion and extension occur around what axis?
Sagittal
Flexion and extensino occur in what plane?
Vertical
Rotation occurs around what axis?
Transverse
Rotation occurs in what plane?
AP (Anterior/Posterior)
Sidebending occurs around what axis?
Coronal
Sidebending occurs in what plane?
Isotonic Contraction
Approximation of muscle's origin and insertion without a change in its tension is what?
Isotonic Contraction
When the operator's force is less than the patient's force, this is what?
Isometric Contraction
Increase in tension without an approximation of origin and insertion is what?
Isometric Contraction
When the operator's force is equal to the patient's force, this is what?
Isolytic Contraction
Muscle contraction against resistance while forcing the muscle to lengthen is what?
Isolytic Contraction
When the operator's force is greater than the patient's force, this is what?
Concentric Contraction
Approximation of the muscle's origin and insertion is what?
Eccentric Contraction
Lengthening of muscle during contraction due to an external force is what?
Direct Treatment
Engaging the restrictive barrier and eventually moving through it is an example of what?
Indirect Treatment
Moving tissues or joints away from the restrictive barrier towards the direction of ease is an example of what?
Active Treatment
This type of treatment involves the assistance of the patient (Usually isometric or isotonic)
Passive Treatment
This type of treatment only involves the practitioner:
Centrally to Peripherally
In general where should you begin treatment and where should you work to?
Elderly and Hospitalized
What patients typically respond better to indirect techniques or gentle direct techniques?
Acute Cases
What cases should have shorter intervals between treatments?
Time
What is required to allow the patient's body to respond to the treatment?
Pediatric
Who can be treated more often, Pediatric or Geriatric patients?
Direct or Indirect, Active or Passive
Myofascial Release is what type of treatment?
Indirect, Passive
Counterstrain is what type of treatment?
Indirect, Passive
FPR (Facilitated Positional Release) is what type of treatment?
