joint mobilization

ortho foundations exam 1 material

QuestionAnswer
use joint mobilizations to assess ROM, treatment, help with pain
motion you see osteokinematics
motion you feel arthrokinematics
passive, skilled, manual therapy techniques applied to joint related soft tissues at varying speeds and amplitudes using accessory motions for therapeutic purposes joint mobilization
why do altered joint mechanics occur pain, muscle guarding, joint effusion, contractures, malalignment of bony surfaces
small, precise movements that occur within joint not under voluntary control but necessary for normal movement accessory motion
3 types of accessory motion roll, slide, spin
new points on one surface come into contact with new points of the other surface roll
one constant point on one joint surface contacts new points or a series of points on the other surface glide
rotation around a longitudinal stationary mechanical axis, one point of contact spin
concave on convex rule glide is in the SAME direction
convex on concave rule glide is in OPPOSITE direction
most often joint mobilization is ___ technique glide
compression is ______ to treatment plane perpendicular
approximation of articular surfaces compression
traction is ____ to treatment plane perpendicular
separation of articular surfaces traction
true distraction is perpendicular to treatment plane
long axis distraction is in line with long bone
neurophysiological effects of joint mob stimulate mechanoreceptors in joint
mechanical effects of joint mob stretching contracted tissue, chance joint nutrition
indications for joint mob examination, reversible joint hypo mobility, maintaining joint mobility, diminishing pain
_______ magnifies force at joint angular stretch
______ replicate normal joint mechanics mobilization forces
subjective scale for grades of mobilization 0-6
hypo mobility on scale is number ___ through ___ 0 ,1,2
hyper mobility on scale is number ___ through ____ 4,5,6
normal mobility on scale is 3
0 no movement (ankylosis)
1 significantly decreased movement
2 slightly decreased movement
3 normal
4 slightly increased movmeent
5 significantly increased movoment
6 complete instability
examination is always performed in ____ loose packed position
LPP position a joint falls into if acutely injured bc it can accommodate the most amount of swelling, allow the most movement
resting position of joint LPP
grades of mobilization 1,2,3,4,5
grade 1 mobilization small amplitude glide at beginning range of joint play- ants doing pushups
grade 1 mobilization used when patient is in a lot of pain, spasms limit movement early in ROM
grade 2 mobilization large amplitude glide at midrange
grade 2 mobilization used for pain control, spasm reduction
grade 3 mobilization large amplitude glide at the end range of joint play
grade 3 used for increasing periarticular extensibility, used when pain is low
grade 4 mobilization small amplitude glide at END RANGE of joint play
grade 4 used for increasing periarticular extensibility
grade 5 mobilisation HVSAM, thrust mobilization , no oscillation
grades of traction 1,2,3
grade 1 traction LOOSEN- used with all gliding motions and for pain relief
grade 2 traction TIGHTEN - maintain joint play when ROM not possible , taking only to first resistance that you feel
grade 3 traction STRETCH- to increase ROM, get into tension and pull even more
use grade _____ when pain before resistance 1 or 2
use grade ____ when pain AT resistance 2,3
use grade____when pain after resistance 3,4
how to progress prescription move out of LPP, increase grade, move from oscillating to static
contraindications to mobilization treatment malignancy in treatment area, metabolic bone disease, fusion, ankylosis, osteomyelitis, fracture
RELATIVE contraindications (based on clinician) excessive pain, swelling, arthroplasty, pregnancy, hyper mobility, spondylolisthesis, rheumatoid arthritis
always mobilize in direction of joint's ___ GLIDE
mobilization with movement simultaneous joint mobilization as the patient moves, fostering mobility through patient's ROM
