  • Back
Cervical clearing
- Compression (neural first, then flexion, extension, spurlington
- Distraction
Valgus stress test
Shoulder should be fully externally rotated, and elbow should be flexed just to avoid CCP. Movement should be blocked laterally and exert a valgus stress with a slight downward angle (to cause distraction at elbow joint). Structures involved: MCL and Ulnar Nerve
Varus stress test
Shoulder should be fully externally rotated, and elbow should be flexed just to avoid CCP. Movement should be blocked lmedially and exert a valrus stress with a slight upward angle (to cause distraction at elbow joint). Structures involved: LCL
Tests for lateral epicondylitis
Method 1 – elbow is extended and pronated. Wrist flexion is resistance. To increase intensity radial deviation is added. Lateral epicondyle may be palpated.
Method 2 – Examiner passively extends elbow while flexing wrist and palpating the lateral epicondyle.
Method 3 – Examiner resists extension of the third digit by applying resistance in the distal part of the proximal interphalangeal joint.
Test for medial epicondylitis
examiner passively extends pt’s elbow and wrist in supination while palpating medial epicondyle.
Test for ponator teres syndrome
pt sits with elbow flex (90°) examiner strongly resists pronation as the elbow is extended. Tingling or paresthesia in he median nerve distribution in forearm and hand determines a positive test.
Waternsburg’s test
hand is resting on table and applying some weight on it. Fingers passively abducted and pt tries to adduct. If 5th digit does not adducts= sign for neuropathy
Tinel’s sign
Arm should be relax and supported. Area of ulnar nerve (between oleocranon and medial epicondyle) is tapped.
Reflex - Biceps
- C5 C6 – Support forearm, squeeze tendon and tap on own (examiner) thumb
Reflex - Brachioradialis
C5-C6 – Support arm by thumb and tap on proximal third of arm
Reflex- Triceps
tap on oleocranon fossa
C5 Myotome and dermatome
D: Lateral shoulder
M Shoulder abduction
C6 Dermatome and Myotome
D: Lateral forearm (including thumb and index)
M: Elbow flexion and wrist extension
C7: Dermatome and myotome
D: Middle finger
M: Elbow extension and wrist flexion
C8 Dermatome and myotome
D:Last two fingers up to medial forearm- distal half of forearm
M:Thumb extension
Joint mobilization grade 1
Small amplitude movement at the beginning of the range
Joint mobilization grade 2
Large amplitude movement, but not reaching the limit of the range
Joint mobilization grade 3
Large amplitude movement performed up to the limit of the range
Joint mobilization grade 4
Small amplitude movement performed at the limit of the range
For acute injuries and to treat pain and muscle guarding which Joint mobilization grade is used?
1 and 2
to treat adhesions, or to stretch tissue which joint mobilization grade is used?
3 and 4
Shorten-anchor-stretch
. Place the muscle into a shortened position and then use one hand to apply a “tack” distal to the site of the lesion. The other hand then passively stretches the muscle and stress on the lesion is minimized
Soft tissue technique used todecrease muscle guarding and improve mobility of the connective tissue sheath surrounding a muscle.
Cross fiber
Muscle Pumping
. Start with passive pumping by shortening the muscle, then using a large contact area to compress the muscle and then maintain pressure as you elongate/stretch the muscle. Progress to active pump by first elongating and applying pressure, and then slowly releasing the pressure as you ask the patient to concentrically contract the muscle.
Cancer red flags
-Persistent pain at night
-Constant pain anywhere in the body
- Unexplainable weight loss
- Loss of apetite
- Unusual lumps and growths
- Unwarranted fatigue
Cardiovascular Red flags
- Shortness of breath
- Dizziness
- Pain or feeling of heaviness
- Pulsating pain
- Constant and severe pain on lower leg or arm
- Discolored or painful feet
- Swealing (no history of injury)
Gastrointestinal/ Genitourinary red flags
- Frequent or severe abdominal pain
- Frequent heartburn indigestion
- Frequent nausea or vomiting
- Changes in bowel or bladder function
Miscellaneous Red Flags
- Fever or night sweats
- Recent severe emotional disturbance with no history of injury
- Swealling or redness in any joint
- Pregnancy
Neurologic Red Flags
- Changes in hearing
- changes in vision
Frequent or severe headaches with no history of trauma
- Problems with balance and coordination
- Faint spells
Circulation/ coordination
%of 1RM and Reps, ROM
30% of 1RM and 20 to 50 reps w/o fatigue ~6 x a day
Inner range of ROM
Endurance
%of 1 RM and reps, ROM
30-60% of 1 RM
30-50 reps (untill fatigue) with rest in between of (3) sets (30 secs to 1 min) and can be done twice a day
Inner to full ROM
Strength
%of 1 RM and reps, ROM
70 to 90% of 1 RM
