MOD 3: intro

Question 1

What are the classifications based on physical examination of the patient for hip pain?

Answer 1

• Hip pain with mobility deficit
• Power deficit
• Mover coordination deficit
• Hip pain with radiating pain

These classifications are derived from the International classification for functioning.

Question 2

If the greatest impairment is range of motion or joint mobility, the classification would be ________.

Answer 2

mobility deficit

This indicates a problem with joint mobility, possibly due to a tight joint capsule.

Question 3

What classification applies if someone has too much motion and inability to control that neutral position?

Answer 3

hip pain with movement coordination deficit

This may relate to ligamentous laxity or a labrum tear.

Question 4

A major deficit in MMT or strength indicates which classification?

Answer 4

power deficit

Muscle weakness can lead to this classification.

Question 5

What condition may be classified as hip pain with radiating pain?

Answer 5

piriformis syndrome

This condition presents with pain that changes location.

Question 6

What is the relationship between flexibility and power?

Answer 6

• Tight muscles can test weak
• Lengthened muscles can test weak

Flexibility affects strength and power, especially in recurrent conditions.

Question 7

True or false: If a patient has a potential fracture, you should immediately palpate the area.

Answer 7

FALSE

It’s important to ask the patient to locate the tender spot themselves before palpation.

Question 8

What should be the approach to palpation when assessing a patient?

Answer 8

Use minimum force necessary

This principle helps prevent worsening the chief complaint.

Question 9

What are the special tests used for in the examination process?

Answer 9

• Rule out conditions
• Rule in conditions

Special tests should be selected based on the classification or diagnosis.

Question 10

For a mobility deficit, which type of therapeutic exercise should be chosen?

Answer 10

range of motion exercises

This is part of the intervention process based on the classification.

Question 11

What is the significance of understanding pathology in treatment prescription?

Answer 11

Guides the prescription of exercise

Different pathologies require different treatment approaches.
