QuestionAnswer
three primary objectives associated with the treatment? -Identify soft tissue dysfunction related 2 client’s clinical condition -Identify primary and secondary impairments that therapists can treat if appropriate -Identify client’s activity/participation limitations that associated with soft tissue dysfunc
what is included in examination? interview, objective tests, measure impairments, palpation
Examples of client-reported history that suggest soft tissue dysfunction may include? -A history of cancer -history of chronic pain -Postural changes over time
define posture? positioning and alignment of the skeleton and associated soft tissues in relation to gravity, the body’s center of mass, and base of support
define joint integrity Joint integrity is the extent to which a joint conforms to the expected norms
define capsular restriction s anatomic or pathologic shortening of the joint capsule. as a result of a variety of clinical conditions such as disuse,
capsular laxity Capsular laxity is anatomic or pathologic lengthening of the joint capsule.
define Capsulitis and Synovitis inflammation of the synovium and the joint capsule and associated internal ligaments.
define Ligament Insufficiency anatomic or pathologic shortening of the capsular ligament.
ligament laxity anatomic or pathologic lengthening of the capsular ligament.
Nonmyofascial Trigger Points hyperirritable spot in scars, fascia, periosteum, ligaments, and joint capsules that is associated with a hypersensitive palpable nodule in a taut band.
accesory joint motion Accessory joint motion is the range of motion within synovial and secondary cartilaginous joints that is not under voluntary control
muscle extensibility muscle extensibility is the ability of muscle and fascia to deform during movement of a joint
Contracture Contracture is a permanent muscular shortening owing to a variety of physiologic changes in muscle such as fibrosis or loss of muscular balance
tendinitis inflammation of the peritendinous tissues that can occur in response to repetitive mechanical trauma, stretch, or overloading of the muscle
tendinosis common overuse tendon conditions with a histopathology consistent with noninflammatory, degenerative conditions of unknown etiology.
Myofascial Trigger Point hyperirritable spot in skeletal muscle that is associated with a hypersensitive palpable nodule in a taut band.
muscle performance capacity to do work based on its length, tension and velocity
muscle power work produced by a muscle per unit of time.
Resting Muscle Tension firmness to palpation at rest observed in muscles with normal innervation or the perceived texture of muscle during palpation
muscle spasm involuntary contraction of a muscle
Adhesions replacement of normal tissue with connective tissue after a burn, wound, surgery, radiation, or disease destroys the original tissues
fascial Restrictions dhesion of one fascial layer to another with the associated development of elastocollagenous cross-links and loss of fluid consistency of fascial ground substance.
Abnormal Connective Tissue Density Abnormal connective tissue density is irregular connective tissue remodeling that occurs during the consolidation and maturation stages of connective tissue healing.
Somatic pain caused by a stimulus to tissue in a person with an intact nervous system. There are several types of somatic pain
Inflammatory pain adaptive behavioral response activated by the immune system caused by tissue response to an injury or irritant and should resolve when the irritant ceases with healing.
Nociceptive pain protective behavioral response caused by actual or threatening noxious stimuli of nociceptive receptors in nonneural tissue in response to chemical, mechanical, or thermal stimul
Myofascial pain persistent regional pain with localized muscle sensitivity
clonus cyclical, spasmodic hyperactivity of antagonistic muscles
different barriers of soft tissue? anatomic(end) elastic (passive range of motion, mid) physiological (active ROM)
define fascia sheath, a sheet, or any other dissectible aggregations of connective tissue that forms beneath the skin to attach, enclose, and separate muscles and other internal organs.
what does SOAP notes stand for? Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan.
total musculoskeletal assessment includes..? Patient history • Observation • Examination of movement • Special tests • Reflexes and cutaneous distribution • Joint play movements • Palpation • Diagnostic imaging

what are end feels? measured during passive ROM
when are hyper and hypomobility tested? during passive ROM
what end feels are normal? tissue approximation, bone to bone, tissue stretch
which end feels are abnormal? empty, mushy tissue stretch, springy block, bone to bone
what test would you preform to rule out a red flag if a patient complains about dizziness but has full ROM and no pain? vertebral artery
what test to rule out a red flag conditions in the C-Spine? spurlings compression, rhomberg, jacksons compressions
what are the four t of palpation Temperature, Texture, Tenderness, and Tone.
in what order do you preform a ROM assessment? active, passive, resisted
you always palpate cross-fibers once the muscle is engaged.... true
what are types of assessment? palpation, postural, ROM
