Chapter 8 Part II Review

Thermal agents effect the amount of blood flow to the area treated.

The Rand 36 Item (SF-36) was completed by patients during the MOS.

Physical agents are classified based on what?

Hydrotherapy is a heating agent.

A specialized treatment approach using patterns of movement.

The Hawkin's Test is used to test for:

Test used for testing anterior cruciate ligament instability

Muscle contraction resulting in muscle lengthening.

Results when standardized instruments are used to measure patient’s actual /perceived activity.

Isotonic contraction can be either concentric or eccentric.

The ability to maintain body position in equilibrium.

The Phalen's Test is used to test for:

This PAM is used to decrease tissue temperature and blood flow.

A technique to manually increase flexibility is pull/bounce

Cryotherapy is a heating agent.

Manual therapy such as joint mobilization can be provided by an assistant.

Muscle contraction at a constant speed.

Cardiovascular endurance training performed over a long period of time at a low intensity.

Exercises such as active, passive, active assist, and active resistive are examples of what?

Concentric contraction is movement with muscle fibers shortening.

Muscle contraction without movement.

(CTs) detailed 3D images of the body, such as soft tissues, blood vessels, and the brain.

The type of agents used to modify the temperature of surrounding tissue.

Hot packs, paraffin treatment, fluidotherapy, and short-wave diathermy are examples of what?

Using the hands to feel deformity, swelling, pain location

MRI uses an exceptionally strong magnet and radio frequency waves to create image of your body.

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation is used in wound healing.

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation

How are thermal agents classified.

What is the core of most rehabilitation programs.

This strength provides proximal stability allowing appropriate distal movement.

Physical agents are provided to effect what response.

A goal of therapeutic exercise is to educate the patient.

Professional consider the Oswestry Low Back Disability Questionnaire.

Mechanical traction, hyperbaric oxygen, biofeedback, and ultraviolet treatment are called what?

Used to decrease blood flow therefore reducing swelling and pain.
