Plan of Care | -Specific interventions that address the objective findings (short & long term goals) -Duration and frequency of threrapy |
Ligaments | Bands of grossly parallel fibrous connective tissue that "tie" or "bind" bones together at or near the margins of bony articulation -named for bony attachment, shape, relationship o the joint, or relationship to each other |
Gross Ligamentous Structure | -dense, white bands of connective tissue -functional stubunits -have poor blood supply but are not inert -capsuloligamentous relationship -synergistic relationship |
Ligamentous function | -Passive guidance of bone position and function -Joint Stabilization during the introduction of applied loads -Mechanoreceptor: position receptor feeding info back to CNS affecting quantity and quality of muscle firing |
Mechanoreceptor | what action of the ligament shut down the quads when ACL tore |

Biochemical comoposition of ligaments | 2/3 H2O 1/3 SOLID - 75% collagen - proteoglycans -elastin |
Soft Tissue mechanics of ligaments | load-deformation behavior stress and strain fiber recruitment depends on joint at time of loading |
Ligament Viscosity | "fluid like" qualities Load relaxation Cyclic Loading - these means ligaments can be trained these properties in ligaments are dominant in kids |
Ligament elasticity | Ligament has the ability to completely recover to its resting length - these behaviors dominant at larger loads |
Factors affecting ligamentous Integrity | -Size of the ligament -Age of the host (ligaments peak energy absorbing ability at skeletal maturity) position of the joint at moment of loading |
Use it or lose it -bony insertions recover more quickly than the midsubstance | Effects of immobilization "moto" |
Effects of exercise on ligaments | -ligament becomes stronger and stiffer w/o exercise is about 80-90% its mechanical potential -this can add 10-20% of ligamentous strength |
MCL | First limit to valgus force |
triad | MCL, Medial Meniscus, ACL |
PCL | Secondary to valgus restraint Primary restraint to posterior translation 90% |

Chemical Composition of Tendon | -Collagen (70-80% type 1) -Ground substances (GAGS & H2O) -Water -extracellular processing-cross linking leads to the load bearing ability -don't have good blood supply -hemoglobin gives nutrients to these (when smoke CO2 goes in and not O2) |
Collagen Disorders -Syndromes that are related to a decrease in COLLAGEN CROSS LINKING | Ehler-Danlos Syndrom Osteogenesis Imperfecta Marfan Syndrome |
small to large | Tendon structure goes fromsmall to large or large to small? |
cross sectional size and length longer=stretchier bigger=hold greater load | amount of force resisted by tendons and absolute change in length during load is dependent on.. |
Protein degradation exceeds sythesis= decreased collagen Collagen and crosslink concentration decline and tendon weakens | effects of immobility of tendons |
extrinsic tendinitis | tendinitis that is not caused by tendon itself but by an outside factor -Rotator cuff -ITB frichtion syndrome |
Intrinsic Tendinitis | -inflammation due to change or inadequacies within structure -due to inability for the tendon to match physical demands placed on it -overuse injury -Patellar, achilles, HS, or adductor all this |

weak- left side neck, spine, and oblique tight-right side neck, spine, oblique | if head is rotated right and side bend right -left should is higher -thoracolumbar: side bent toward right and right side of pelvis higher ---what muscles weak and what strong? |
adducted | if sidebent left and rotated right at the trunk, and left hip is higher...abducted or adducted at hips |
weakened | muscles that are shorted are going to be |
congenital scoliosis | -appreciable lateral convexity -caused by specific congenitally anomalous vertebrae (born with it) defects of formation: failure of vertebra part of vertebral segment (hemivertebra) defects of segmentation: failure of segmentation |
