Ultrasound, biofeedback and SWD modalities
Flashcards do conjunto (20)
- 1what is BIOFEEDBACKtool that treats patients with a variety of neuromuscular disorders with out the use of electricity. gives feedback from muscles
- 2Name the 3 physiological effects of Biofeed back1. muscle relaxation
2. muscle recruitment
3. general relaxation - 3The client used this machine to do 2 things: 1 or the other1. respond to the feed back
2. feedback - 4Fluidotherapy what is itheating modality that combines stimulation and pressure
- 5name 5 reasons why we use fluidothereapy1. pain relief
2. restoration of ROM
3. decrease swelling
4. improvement of blood flow
5. assist in wound healing - 6what is Ultra sound?use of sound waves that go through a kertz crystal that vibrates, onces the waves are out they become compressed
- 7define longitudinal and transverselongitudinal- liquids or gases
transverse- along bones or solids - 8what happens to the sound waves when it hits the skin surface 3 things1. reflection-loss of energy
2. refraction-energy deflected by angle of incidence
3. transmitted - 9define absorptionproportion of rays that get absorbed depend on wavelength and meduim
- 10define scatteringreflection and refraction
- 11define attenuationdecrease of energy intensity due to absorption and scattering
- 12define acoustic impedancedensity of tissue combined with the speed that the sound waves travel through it
-gel is used to decrease impedance - 13depth of penetration1 MHZ = deep tissues
3 MHZ= superficial tissues - 14clinically why do we use ultra sound name 8 reasons1. recent injuries and inflammation
2. scar tissue
3. chronic indurated edema
4. wound healing
5. decrease pain
6. placebo effect
7. bone healing
8. plantar warts - 15What are the contraindications of ultrasound1. radiotherapy
2. pregnancy
3. joint cement
4. metal - 16name the precautions of ultrasound1. epiphyseal areas
2. breast implants
3. fractures - 17Short wave diathermyshort wave frequency to produce heating in tissue
- 18name the 2 method of SWD1.induction; creates heat in tissue with high conductivity
2. capacitance- creates heat in tissue with low conductivity - 19contraindication of SWD1. eyes
2. pregnancy
3. metal impants
4. testes - 20precautions of SWD1. IUDs
2. Obese patients
3. Pregnancy
