|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nerve Impingement | Pressure against a nerve by skin, fascia, muscles, ligaments, or joints
🗑
|
||||
| Neuromuscular | The interaction between nervous system control of the muscles and the response of the muscles to the nerve signals
🗑
|
||||
| Neuromuscular Mechanism | The interplay and reflex connection between sensory and motor neurons and muscle function
🗑
|
||||
| Neurotransmitter | A messenger chemical in the synapse of the nerve
🗑
|
||||
| Norepinephrine | A neurochemical that functions in a manner similar to epinephrine but that is more concentrated in the brain
🗑
|
||||
| Opportunistic Invasion | Potentially pathogenic organisms are found on the skin and mucous membranes of nearly everyone that do not cause disease until they have the opportunity, such as in a depressed immunity
🗑
|
||||
| Origin | The attachment point of a muscle at the fixed point during movement
🗑
|
||||
| Osteokinematic Movements | The movements of flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation; also known as physiological movements.
🗑
|
||||
| Parasympathetic Autonomic Nervous System | The restorative part of the autonomic nervous system. The parasympathetic response often is called the relaxation response
🗑
|
||||
| Phasic Muscles | The muscles that move the body
🗑
|
||||
| Physiologic Barriers | The result of the limits in range of motion imposed by protective nerve and sensory function to support optimal performance
🗑
|
||||
| Positional Release | method of moving the body into the direction of ease ( the way the body wants to move out of the position that causes pain ); the proprioception is taken into a state of safety and may stop signaling for protective spasm
🗑
|
||||
| Postisometric Relaxation | The state that occurs after isometric contraction of a muscle; it results from the activity of minute neural reporting stations called the golgi tendon bodies
🗑
|
||||
| Postural Muscles | Muscles that support the body against gravity.
🗑
|
||||
| Prime Movers | The muscles responsible for movement
🗑
|
||||
| Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) | Specific application of muscle energy techniques that uses strong contraction combined with stretching and muscular pattern retraining
🗑
|
||||
| Proprioreceptors | Sensory receptors that detect joint and muscle activity
🗑
|
||||
| Pulsed Muscle Energy | Procedures that involve engaging the barrier and using minute, resisted contractions ( usually 20 in 10 seconds ), which introduces mechanical pumping
🗑
|
||||
| Physical Assessment | Evaluation of body balance, efficient function, basic symmetry, range of motion, and ability to function
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
