Quiz 6-Massage

The client assists in moving a limb in active assistive joint movements

false

Passive joint movements are used therapeutically to improve joint mobility and range of motion, always working within the clients comfort level

true

For therapeutic movements you can challenge to range of motion by slightly extending or pushing into the end of the movement

true

In active joint movements, the client actively participates in the exercise by resisting the contracting the muscles involved in the movement

false

In active joint movements, the client actively participates in the exercise by contracting the muscles involved in the movement

true

In active range of motion movements, the client moves the limb or the joint without any intervention from the practitioner

true

An accurate description of active resistive movements to shoulder flexion would be to instruct the client to move his or her arm behind starting in the anatomical position while the practitioner resists the movement going behind the client by holding at the client’s wrist and slightly above the elbow

false

Active assistive joint movements are a therapeutic technique to restore mobility in an injured limb. They are used when a client is unable to move a limb or cannot move it through a full range of motion

true

All joints have normal restriction that limit the range of motion, and they can be classified as anatomic, physiologic, or pathological.

true

The change in the quality of movement from the first sense of resistance to the extent of the physiological or anatomical barrier is called end feel

true

What kind of movement stretched the fibrous tissue and moves the joint through its range of motion without assistance from the client?

passive joint movement

Barrier that limit movement because of the physical structure of the joint are classified as__

anatomic

This type of barrier to a joint movement is encountered at the anatomic barrier but usually before it is reached

physiologic

This barrier is most often due to the pull of muscles that have reached the extent of their possible stretch

physiologic

End feel that results in bone-on bone contact is termed

hard end feel

The springy, rather painless limitation that a practitioner feels in the last few inches of the range of motion owing to the soft tissue approaching the extent of its possible stretch is called

soft end feel

On occasion, normal range of motion is restricted by muscle spasm or other conditions that cause pain during movement. An abrupt restriction to a joint movement before reaching the physiologic barrier (due to pain) is known as

empty end feel

Joint movements are used extensively in al of the following soft tissue modalities except

PET

Starting in the anatomical position, the practitioner resists the arm at the wrist and slightly above the elbow as the client moves the arm forward. What term best describes this movement

active resistance of shoulder flexion

This type of barrier occurs either before the normal end of range of motion is achieved or is accompanied by pain or discomfort that restricts the movement of that joint

pathologic

The lightest, most superficial of the percussion techniques

tapping

A movement that uses a rhythmic, glancing contact with the body using the palmar surface of the fingers and hand

slapping

The heaviest and deepest form of percussion that is done over the thicker, denser, and fleshier areas of the body

beating

A technique used by respiratory therapists to help break up lung congestion

cupping

A rapid striking movement that can be done with one or both hands

hacking
