Therapeutic modalities def |
Are an external device of application the provides an optimal environment for healing and assist in rehab |
|
Examples of "application" modalities |
Heat Cold Massage/STR Traction/jnt mobilization Exercise Taping Cupping & acupuncture |
|
Example of "devices" modalities |
US LASE Hydrotherapy (tub/pool) massage gun Form roller Heat lamp Game readies/normatec |
|
Steps if GAP |
1. Foundation 2. Preapplicatoon 3. Application parameters 4. Post application task 5. Maintenance |
|
Step 1 of GAP |
Foundation: Understand the modalities: their effects precaution, contraindications, indication, advantages, disadvantages, |
|
Step 2 of GAP |
Pre application task 1 Review previous tx and response to it, 2. explain precaution and effects, 3.check skin sensation, 4 tell them what they should and shouldn't feel 5.position paitent and equpiement, 6.INFORMED consent |
|
Step 3 of GAP |
Application parameters Set and adjust parameters (check in frequently) 1. length 2. Frequency 3. Duration 4. Dosage |
|
Step 4 GAP |
Post application 1. Proper removal of modality ( and put away) 2. Clean up equipment and paitent 3. Write take home instruction 4. Schedule next tx 5. Record tx 6. Explain post app feeling and what they should and shouldn't do following tx |
|
Step 5 of GAP |
Maintenance 1. RRS (Regular cleaning: all the time & routine maintenance: frequently & Simple repairs: only when needed) 2. Check dosage settings are acutate |
|
Two stage of injury process |
1. Primary 2. Secondary |
|
Primary injury |
1. Tissue damage associated with injury/trauma 2. Reversible (unless CNS) |
|
Secondary injury |
-cell death due to O2 blockage (due to vessel damage) - mitochondrial failure or present of enzyme that damage cells (leak out from broken cells) |
|
Tx of secondary injury |
POLICE Breaks damage cell (pain spasms & cell death cycle) |
|
Hemostasis simple def |
Process of stopping blood flow through locally damaged vessels |
|
What occurs durning the hemostasis phase |
1. vasoconstriction (limit damage) - vasodilation (bring in specific cells/products) 2. Platletes stimulate GF and fibrinogen to form fibrin plug 3. Chemotaxis/chemoattractant |
|
Chemoattractant and chemotaxis |
The accumulation of cells at a injury cell causes chemical to be release that causes more cell to migrate to injury site |
|
Histamine |
Hormone that attracts leukocytes and increase permeability -causes swelling |
|
Serotonin |
Cause vasoconstriction and increases permeability |
|
Kinis hormone |
Increases permeability |
|
Prostaglandin |
Increase permeability Stimulates repairs (allows 2nd stage to begin) |
