Stuff I was told to study- second semester final

Q-angle

15 degrees

females

have larger Q-angle

retroversion

toe-in

anteversion

toe-out

coxa valga

> 125 degrees

coxa vera

< 125 degrees

tibia, femur

make up the tibiofemoral joint

sartorius

hip flexion, abduction, lateral rotation, knee flexion

lateral

where thumb is in relation to the fingers in anatomical position

proximal

where the humerus is in relation to the ulna

hyaline

cartilage covering ends of long bones

water

what hyaline cartilage is mostly composed of

.5-1.0 w/cm2

Frequency is 3 MHz, and duty cycle is 100%. what would the intensity be for soft tissue shortening?

5-10 minutes

Frequency is 3 MHz, and duty cycle is 100%. what would the time be for soft tissue shortening?

1.5-2.5 w/cm2

Frequency is 1 MHz, and duty cycle is 100%. what would the intensity be for soft tissue shortening?

100%

Duty cycle for pain control

20%

Duty cycle for soft tissue healing

either 100% or pulsed (20%)

duty cycle for tendon injuries

pulsed (20%)

duty cycle for ligament injuries

3-5 minutes

time for tendon injuries

3 MHz

Frequency for soft tissue healing

.5- 3.0 w/cm2

intensity range for pain control

.5-1.0 w/cm2

Intensity for soft tissue healing, tendon and ligament injuries

• pacemaker

• defibrilator

• unstable arrhythmia

• over carotid sinus

• thombosis

• pregnancy

contraindications for E-stim

low rate TENS

2-10 pps 20-30 minutes

high rate TENS

100-150 pps as needed

low rate TENS

pain relief at the motor level

high rate TENS

pain relief at the sensory level

low rate TENS

released bodies natural endorphins for pain

high rate TENS

utilizes gate control theory to relieve pain

high rate TENS

pain relief during treatmenrt

low rate TENS

pain relief 4-5 hrs after tx.

IFC

2 alternating currents

IFC

2 channels, 4 electrodes

IFC

surround area of pain

Premod

1 pulsed biphasic current

Premod

1 channel, 2 elctrodes

Premod

paralllel to muscle fibers in painful area
