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 |

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 |
