        Help!  

Question
Answer
Which of the following medalities has the greatest likelihood of frostbite?   reusable cold packs  
🗑
Which of the following is a contraindication to the use of a paraffin bath?   Skin conditions  
🗑
Which of the following modalities used convetion as the method of head transfer?   Whirlpool  
🗑
Which of the following is not a local effect of cold application?   decreased viscosity of fluids in the area (decreased rate of cell metabolism, muscle speindle activity and nerve conduction velocity are all effects)  
🗑
Which of the following modalities has the greatest depth of penetration into the tissues?   icebag-cold penetrates deeper than all heat  
🗑
Heat application by itself (id without stretching or exercise) is sufficient to elongate collagen-rich tissues.   FALSE!  
🗑
Which of the following is not a local effect of heat application?   Increased muscle tone (increased rate of cell metabolism, blood flow, and decrease muscle spasm are effects)  
🗑
A _____ degree F drop in skin temp is needed to reduce the sensitivity of muscle spindles.   9  
🗑
As the size (area) of the body exposed to cold immersion increase, the temperature of the immersion should:   increase  
🗑
The primary reason for the use of cold during the immediate treatment of an injury   to decrease cell metabolism  
🗑
Focal compression serves what purpose?   prevent swelling from entering the joint capsule, and assiting the lymphatic system in removing solid matter from the area  
🗑
The "hunting response" has been demonstrated to occur in all body parts during cold application.   False  
🗑
Moist heat packs are stored in water having a temperature range between ___ and ___ degrees F.   160/170  
🗑
The thermal effects obtained from a moist heat pack occur up to ___ cm beneath the skin   3  
🗑
Raynaud's phenomenon is a common contraindication to the use of cold and is characterized by;   alternating bouts of pallor and cyanosis  
🗑
Following a 20 min ice immersion and a short rewarming period, there ___ decreased joint proprioceptive ability   is not  
🗑
Which of the following is not a systemic effect to cold exposure?   increased heart rate (vasoconstriction, decreased respiratory rate, increased muscle tone-all are)  
🗑
if the coal of your treatment is to produce long-lasting cold within the quads muscle prior to exercise(in subacute or chronic stage of injury), which of the following modalities would be the most appropriate?   ice bag  
🗑
List the compoenents and the effects of intermediate treatment of an acute injury   Rest-prevents further trauma Ice-\/ the cells metaboolism, thereby \/ the amount of secondary hypoxic and enzymatic injury Compression \/ pressure gradient, \/ hemorrhage, limites collection of edema Elevation-\/ local blood pressure an  
🗑
Why does the effects of cold application penetrate deeper and last longer than the effect of heat application?   temp gradient between skin is greater with cold modalities-/\ the rate and magnitude of energy exchange, cold \/ bf-limits warming, cold penetrates deeper-\/ temp gradient and slows tissue warming, sweat occurs during heat app-regulating local temp
