healing: recovery

use of physical agents and/or techniques (therapeutic modalities), determine exercises; extent of activity; progression (therapeutic exercise), appropriateness of medication (pharmacology), return to function

healing concepts

understand phases/time frames physiological changes associated with each phase. healing is a continuum. must create a conductive environment for healing.

phase 1

inflammatory response phase.


healing begins immediately.


injury results in altered metabolism and liberation of various materials.


initial reaction by leukocytes and phagocytic cells.

phase 2

fibroblastic repair phase.


period of scar formation. collagen proliferates, tensile strength increases in proportion of collagen synthesis. as tensile strength increases the number of fibroblasts diminish signal beginning of maturation phase. pain, swelling, tenderness decrease

phase 3

maturation and remodeling phase.


long term process; may require several years to complete. realignment of collagen relative to applied tensile forces. continued breakdown and synthesis of collagen= increased strength.

cardinal signs of inflammation

loss of function (function laesa)


pain (dolor)


heat (color)


swelling (tumor)


redness (rubor)

DAPRE

Daily Adjusted Progressive Resistance Exercise

goal of recovery

protect, localize, decrease injurious agents, and prepare for healing and repair

thermotherapy

heat.


increase collagen extensibility; decreasing joint stiffness; reducing pain; relieving muscle spasm; reduction of edema and swelling; increasing blood flow.

cryotherapy

cold therapy.


vasoconstriction; decrease extent of hypoxic injury to cells; decreased metabolic rate; decrease muscle spasm; decrease free nerve ending and peripheral nerve excitability; analgesia caused by raising nerve threshold.

manual therapy

massage, myofascial release, muscle energy, and joint mobilization.

flexibility and ROM (range of motion)

stretching= active, passive, PNF.


use assistive devices= continuous passive motion machine, splints

strength and muscular endurance

maximal force a muscle group can exert, strength applied over a distance for a specific amount of time, ability of a muscle to perform repetitive contraction against a less than maximal load.

Static-

isometric (same length)

dynamic-

isotonic (same contraction)


concentric and eccentric

isokinetic

same motion

proprioception: agility, balance, and coordination

the body's ability to transmit afferent information regarding position sense, to interpret the information, and to respond consciously or unconsciously to stimulation through posture and movement.

PNF

proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation

methods to improve strength

manual resistance


elastic bands


body weight


free weights


machines

open kinetic chain

distal segment moves freely in space

closed kinetic chain

distal segment is weight bearing and the body moves over the hand and foot.

principle of strengthening exercises

little to no pain.


progressive overload, SAIDS principle

S.A.I.D.

specific adaptation to improve demands

components of Proprioception

Balance



Coordination



Agility

Balance

body's ability to maintain equilibrium by controlling the body's center of gravity over it base of support.

Coordination

Complex process by which a smooth pattern of activity is produced through a combination of muscles acting together with appropriate intensity and timing.

agility

the power of moving quickly and easily; nimbleness

plyometrics

once all of aforementioned met can work on explosiveness, rapid directional change, and force production.

functional and sport specific exercise

prepare participant to withstand specific stresses of sport or work and meet skill demand, improve confidence, functional activity.



functional activity- ADLs and precedes sport specific activity



sport specific activity including drills

pharmocology

branch of medicine that deals with the uses, effects, and actions of drugs

pharmacotherapeutics

study of the effects of drugs on the body

OTC

can be purchased without the need of an prescription

prescription drug

have to be written and given to you from your doctor

banned substances

Sports drug testing:


sudafed


caffeine



how can drugs be indentified

chemical name- chemical structure of the compound



generic name- shorter name



trade name- name a manufacturing company assigns to a drug



OTC



Prescription

how do drugs work

drug enters the body, crosses a cells membrane, circulatory system spreads drug throughout the body, and finally product if excreted.

non-desired effects of medication

side effects


drug allergies- toxic and allergic


drug interactions- interaction inhibiting potency or increasing potency

drug testing

established by each team, institution, organization, company, etc.


typically done via urine test


positive test reported and sanctions applied

drugs for inflammation

acetylsalicylic acid (asprin)


NSAID

NSAID

Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs



frequently used for pain, fever, and inflammation

anesthetics

contains several drugs that leaves the patient unconscious or totally relaxed.

electrotherapy

electric therapy


electrodes are placed on or near the area of pain and soothing pulses are sent to the electrodes through the skin and along the nerve fibers. The pulses suppress pain signals to the brain. encourages the body to produce higher levels of its own natural pain killing chemicals

ultrasound therapy

desired effects include burning feeling, cavitation is caused by the heating of the gas contained in tissue cell nuclei. This can result in difficulty breathing, dizziness, nausea and disorientation.
