knowledge check: grading - sustained glide / traction & oscillations

Question 1

GRADE 1 - sustained

Answer 1

non-corrective
stopping before tissue stop

Question 2

GRADE 2 - sustained

Answer 2

non-corrective
stopping at the first tissue stop & not going past

Question 3

GRADE 3 - sustained

Answer 3

corrective
going past the first tissue stop until the anatomical limit

Question 4

GRADE 1 - oscillations

Answer 4

small amplitude
between initiation of movement & tissue resistance
performed at 5 cycles per second

Question 5

GRADE 2 - oscillations

Answer 5

large amplitude
between initiation of movement & tissue resistance
performed at 2-3 cycles per second

Question 6

GRADE 3 - oscillations

Answer 6

large amplitude
within tissue resistance & back out again
performed at 2-3 cycles per second

Question 7

GRADE 4 - oscillations

Answer 7

small amplitude
within tissue resistance to end of limited ROM
5 cycles per second
