A patient with right shoulder pain exhibits bruising, palmar
erythema and signs of confusion - which organ is most likely
involved
Liver
S&S of liver disease
Where is pancreatic pain most likely to refer to
left shoulder
Where can renal pain be referred to
More commonly felt in posterior subcostal region
Can refer to shoulder
What dressing is most appropriate to use with an infected
wound that also requires hemostasis
Alginate - it provides both hemostasis and is appropriate to use
over an infected wound
What is the most occlusive dressing type
Hydrocolloid dressing
positive stemmer sign
Skin on the dorsum of the toes and fingers cannot be lifted, or is
difficult to lift, compared to the opposite side
,Presence of a stemmer sign is considered to accurately diagnose
the presence of lymphedema
A wound that is deep, regularly shaped and dry is likely an
_______________ wound
Arterial
When is compression therapy for management of edema
contraindicated?
In the presence of peripheral arterial disease
A superficial, irregularly sharped, highly exudative wound is
most likely a ________________
Venous ulcer
_______________________ is considered one of the most
important therapeutic measures for prevention and treatment
of venous leg ulcers
Compression therapy
Edema associated with chronic venous insuffiency usually
presents
In a gaiter distribution creating an inverted bottle at the calf
Lipedema presentation
Symmetrical swelling of both legs, extending from hips to ankles
Onset is primarily proximal to distal
Metatarsal pad
Transfers stress from the metatarsal heads to the metatarsal
shafts reducing plantar pressure
Rocker bars
Attach to the sole of the shoe proximal to the metatarsal heads to
reduce the distance the patient travels during stance phase and to
shift the load from metatarsophalangeal joints to the metatarsal
shaft
Metatarsal bar
, Place posterior to the metatarsal heads on the sole of the shoe to
assist in transferring stress from the metatarsophalangeal joints to
the metatarsal shafts during late stance
RA presentation
General fatigue
Weakness
Bilateral symptomatic joints
Most often presenting first in the hands and wrists
Position to best access supraspinatus tendon insertion
Shoulder extension + IR
Reiter syndrome (reactive arthritis)
Systemic disease that can cause pain in multiple joints
Usually asymmetric
Occurs after infection
Presents over several weeks
Signs and symptoms of slipped capital femoral epiphysis
Typically found in adolescents (10-16 y/o)
Leg shortness
Knee pain
Pain with hip IR
Groin pain (with hip flexed to 80 - 90 deg + IR + adduction)
Anterior impingement test
Pain with hip flex 80-90 deg + IR + add
FABER is used to indicate what kinds of dysfunction
Lumbar, SIJ, or posterior hip dysfunction associated with the
capsule
*** although it is a femoroacetabular impingement test, its is
a better indicator of posterior hip dysfunction than anterior hip
dysfunction ***
normal fasting blood glucose
60 - 99 mg/dL
