Treatment and Rehabilitation (BOC study
guide)
What does "extension lag" mean? - ANS-Inability to fully extend the knee
What is the best method of determining the recovery status of the hand and forearm
after a flexor injury? - ANS-Use of a hand dynamometer
Which of the following is the correct sequence of tissue healing? - ANS-Cellular
response, regeneration, remodeling

tissue injury? - ANS-Up to 1 year
Where is the primary location for adenosine triphosphate production in skeletal muscle?
- ANS-Sarcomere
Sensory receptors located at the musculotendinous junction, which monitor active
tension generated by the muscle during a contraction, are called: - ANS-Golgi tendon
organs
Which of the following describes a neurapraxia? - ANS-Demyelination of the axon
sheath that leads to conduction block. Usually heals in approximately 1 to 2 weeks.
Bone grows via a process of apposition and resorption on its surface. Which of the
following cells are responsible for the resorption of bone during its growth or repair? -
ANS-Osteoclasts
Why is the repair response so limited in the articular cartilage of a joint after an injury in
the adult athlete? - ANS-Articular cartilage cells do not undergo mitosis in the mature
athlete
What are the 4 sensations an athlete will experience with the application of
cryotherapy? - ANS-Cold, burning, aching, numbness
The effect of treating a subacute musculoskeletal injury with a warm whirlpool include all
of the following except: - ANS-Increased deep tissue temperature
,Which cells are active after an injury to begin building collagen? - ANS-Fibroblasts
Heat is dissipated in the body by all of the following except: - ANS-Shivering
External muscular force available for useful work is the results of all of the following
factors except: - ANS-Whether the muscle is fast or slow twitch
Balance and coordination are critical for athletic performance. Feedback from the
muscle as to what they are doing during a particular activity is known as _____. The
area of the brain that assists in controlling movement is the _____. -
ANS-Proprioception, Cerebellum
What is a stretching exercise that consists of a "stretch and hold" position called? -
ANS-Static stretch
If hyperventilation does not adequately increase the oxygen supply in the blood during
aerobic exercise, what must occur to meet the gas exchange demands? -
ANS-Increased cardiac output
An injured athlete is led through a therapeutic mental process in which he pictures
himself being evaluated by the athletic trainer and assured the injury is not serious. He
then pictures himself moving through rehab, recovering nicely, and, finally, returning to
his sport fully healed. What is this therapeutic approach to the recovery process called?
- ANS-Visualization
What must the athletic trainer establish with the athlete prior to and during the rehab in
order for the rehab of an injured athlete to be successful? - ANS-A good rapport
A basketball player who has sprained her ankle for the second time in 3 months reports
to the athletic training facility for her 3rd treatment session. The athletic trainer notices
she is demanding and wants to know why the athletic trainer "did not fix her ankle the
right way the first time." She becomes somewhat threatening, stating that she will find
someone else to help her if she is not successfully helped this time. What should be the
best response to an attention-seeking athlete? - ANS-Set specific but reasonable time
limits with the athlete per treatment session so the athletic trainer is not overtaxed
If an athlete needs to lose weight for health reasons, how many calories must his or her
daily diet be reduced by in order to lose 1 to 2 pounds per week? - ANS-500 to 1000
calories/ day
, Which modality would be best utilized if the desired therapeutic effect is decreased pain,
edema, and inflammation? - ANS-Ice packs
What are heat-producing currents in the body that are formed by a magnetic field that is
externally applied in short-wave diathermy called? - ANS-Eddy currents
High-voltage pulsed monophasic generators deliver current to deep tissues without
damaging superficial tissues and are used for pain modulation. What type of waveform
is used with this type of stimulator? - ANS-Monophasic spike delivered in pairs
A moist heat pack causes all of the following effects except: - ANS-Increases in muscle
tissue temperatures
What PHYSIOlogical effects occur under the cathode of an electrical stimulator?
I. VasoDilation
II. VasoConstriction
III. Tissue softening
IV. Irritation - ANS-I, III, IV
All of the following are contraindications for using cryotherapy except: -
ANS-Inflammation
What would be a functional skill for a patient in an ankle rehab program? -
ANS-Single-leg hopping
When rehabilitating a musculoskeletal injury, what is the proper progression of
treatment? - ANS-Range of motion, strength, endurance, proprioception
Which of the following PNF techniques is NOT a strengthening technique? -
ANS-Slow-reversal-hold-relax
During a lower extremity D1 flexion PNF pattern, what movements are taking place at
the hip? - ANS-Flexion, ADDuction, External rotation
During a D2 extension pattern of the Upper extremity, what is the proper timing
sequence? - ANS-Shoulder Extension, forearm pronation, finger flexion
According to Maitland's 5 grades of joint motion, which grade would be most appropriate
when joint movement is limited by pain and spasm? - ANS-I- Grade 1 joint mobilization
is appropriate for decreasing pain and spasm.
