Question
Answer
Three Main Classifications of Injury:   acute, chronic, catastrophic  
🗑
acute injury-   rapid onset, resulting from traumatic event  
🗑
chronic injury-   slow, insidious onset, implying gradual development of structural damage  
🗑
catastrophic injury-   involving damage to brain and/or spinal cord that presents a potentially life threatening situation or possibility of permanent disability  
🗑
R I C E   Rest Ice Compression Elevation  
🗑
sprains-   injuries to ligaments  
🗑
strains-   njuries to muscles, tendons, or junction between the two  
🗑
contusions-   bruising  
🗑
fractures-   a break or crack in bone  
🗑
What are the types of compression?   circumferential, collateral, and focal  
🗑
Circumferential compression-   even compression everywhere  
🗑
Collateral compression-   compression on only two sides  
🗑
Focal compression-   direct pressure  
🗑
Temperature for cold modalities   32-65 degrees F  
🗑
Temperature for heat modalities   104-113 degrees F  
🗑
What are the four ways heat transfers?   conduction, convection, radiation, and evaporation  
🗑
conduction-   direct contact  
🗑
convection-   circulation between surface and moving medium  
🗑
radiation-   (heat lamps) penetration by beams (electromagnetic waves)  
🗑
evaporation   heat escaping liquid-gas transfer  
🗑
Effects of Cold Application-   vasoconstriction, decreased cell metabolism, decreased production of cell waste, reduction in inflammation, decreased pain, decreased muscle spasm  
🗑
types of superficial heat-   infared lamps, moist heat packs, paraffin bath, warm whirlpool  
🗑
deep heat-   diathermy  
🗑
when to use cold?   acute stage of inflammation, before ROM, after physical activity  
🗑
when to use heat?   control of inflammation in sub acute or chronic stages, encourage tissue healing, reduce edema  
🗑
therapeutic ultrasound   electricity passes through a crystal producing acoustical sound waves  
🗑
transmission of ultrasound-   needs medium for travel (gel or water)  
🗑
frequencies of ultrasound are..   1 MHz- 5 cm deep and 3 MHz -2 cm deep  
🗑
Coupling techniques-   direct, water immersion, and bladder method  
🗑
uses for E-stim:   pain management, muscle re-education, and reduces swelling  
🗑
types of E-stim currents:   direct (galvinic), alternating (premod, inferential)  
🗑
direct galvinic e-stim current=   muscle education and muscle pumping  
🗑
alternating premod inferential current=   pain management  
🗑
frequencies for e-stim   1-10 MHz = opiate release, 30-60 MHz = muscle strengthening, 80 -150 pain management  
🗑
HOPS   History, Observation, Palpation, Special Tests  
🗑
ACL tear MOI (mechanism of injury)   internal rotation, valgus load, usually hear single pop  
🗑
ACL special tests-   Lachmann and anterior drawer  
🗑
treatment of ACL-   acute= RICE, knee immobilizer, crutches followed by referral to Doc for surgery  
🗑
PCL tear MOI   fall on bent knee  
🗑
PCL special tests   posterior sag, posterior drawer  
🗑
treatment of PCL-   same as ACL  
🗑
knee dislocation-   3-4 ligaments involved (ACL, PCL, MCL, LCL) activate EMS  
🗑
patella dislocation/subluxation-   2 pops, extend knee to relocate  
🗑
special tests for sublux-   apprehension in sliding patella to side  
🗑
how to treat sublux-   relocate, MRI, build quad strength, stability of joint,  
🗑
osgood schlatter   calcium deposits especially during growth spurts cause is overuse treatment is control inflammation and rest  
🗑
Meniscus MOI   twisting motion, contusion, violent trauma, overuse  
🗑
special tests for Meniscus   McMurray's and Appley's  
🗑
treatment for meniscus-   RICE, refer surgery, if removed (4-6 wk) if repaired (6-8wk)  
🗑
knee tendon injuries are   patella tendonitis (jumper's knee) and IT band tendonitis (runners knee)  
🗑
treatment for knee tendon injuries   heat pre activity, ice post activity, brace  
🗑
3 choices for ACL repair-   1) BPB- bone patella bone central 1/3 tendon is cut out sewn together and used as graft 2) hamstring- smaller incision, for smaller patients (not above 210lbs) 3) allograph (use cadaver)  
🗑
what is the pop from that you hear with ACL injury?   usually from femoral condyle bumping tibial plateau  
🗑
Appley's compression/distension test   + compression with - distension = + test for meniscus  
🗑
quick test for patella fracture   straight leg raise  
🗑
what are the steps for ankle taping?   pre-wrap, anchors (2 on top, 1 on base), alternate 3 stirrups and 3 horse shoes, heel lock (1 on each side), Figure 8, cover-up  
🗑
