Question
Answer
ue flexor synergies   scapular elevation and retraction; shoulder abduction and external rotation; elbow flexion; forearm supination; wrist and finger flexion   na  
🗑
le flexor synergies   pelvis elevates and retracts; hip flexion, abduction, and ER; knee flexion; ankle df and inversion; toe df   na  
🗑
dynamic reversals (slow reversals)   utilizzes isotonic contractions of first agonists, then antagonists performed against resistance. through full ROM.   impaired strength and coordination b/n agonist and antagonist, limitations in ROM, fatigue  
🗑
stabilizing reversals   utilizes alternating isotonic contractions of first agonists, then antagonists against resistance, allowing only very limited ROM   impaired strength, stability and balance, coordination  
🗑
rhythmic stabilization   utilizes alternatining isometric contractions of first agonists, then antagonists against resistance; no motion is allowed   impaired strength and coordination, limitations in ROM, impaired stabilization control and balance  
🗑
agonist reversals   resisted concentric contraction of agonist mms moving through the range is followed by a stabilizing contraction (holding) and then eccentric, lengthening contraction, moving slowly back.   weak postural mms, inability to eccentrically control body wt during mvmt transitions, poor dynamic postural control  
🗑
rhythmic initiation   voluntary relaxation followed by passive mvmts progressing to active assisted and active resisted mvmts to finally active mvmts.   inability to relax, hypertonicity, difficulty initiating mvmt  
🗑
rhythmic rotation   relaxation is achieved w/ slow, repeated rotation of a limb at a pt where limitation is noticed. as mms relax the limb is slowly and gently moved into the range.   relaxation of excess tension in mms (hypertonia) combined w/ PROM of the range limiting mms  
🗑


   

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.
