Sports Medicine Final Exam-Graded A
Explain each of the letters for the acronym "SOAP" - correct answer-s- Subjective
o- Objective
a- Assessment
p- Plan
Subjective includes detailed history including chief complaint, mechanism of injury and
any symptoms
Objective record of measurements gained from inspection, palpation and special tests
Assessment states the type and severity of the injury, and the problem list
Pain is whether the athlete will be referred, treated, or monitored.
Each component making up a comprehensive exercise program - correct answer-
Mobility,flexibility, proprioception, muscular strength, muscular endurance, muscular
power, cardiorespiratory endurance, and sport specific function
Identify what each letter stands for in the IMPRESS model - correct answer-
PROM - correct answer-Premature Rupture of Membranes
AAROM - correct answer-Active Assisted Range of Motion- Normal range or available
range of motion with assistance(When both the athlete and AT go through the range of
motions)
AROM - correct answer-Active Range of Motion- patient can actively move a joint using
the muscles adjacent to the joint(When only the athlete goes through the range of
motion)
Muscular Strength - correct answer-The ability to exert a maximal amount of force for a
short period of time
Muscular Endurance - correct answer-The ability to do something over and over for an
extended period of time without getting tired
Psychological effects of the application of heat - correct answer-Heating modalities
warm the body tissues to create a specific physiological response that helps a healing
process
Uses and time application for ice - correct answer-Cool the injured tissue, which
constricts blood vessels, decreases inflammation, decreases cell metabolism,
decreases pain, and decreases muscle spasms
, Administer ultrasound for maximal effectiveness - correct answer-Produces a deep-
heating effect
When waves pass through the tissue heat is produced through conversion
Sound waves need to be flowing 100% of the time
How and Why is traction used - correct answer-The purpose is to guide the part back
into place and to hold it steady. Traction may also be used to stretch the neck and
prevent painful muscle spasms. Traction is often accomplished using ropes, pulleys,
and even the weight of the patient's own body.
Effleurage - correct answer-A form of massage involving a circular stroking movement
made with the palm of the hand
Petrissage - correct answer-A massage technique that involves kneading the body
Vibration - correct answer-The shaking of the body as a therapeutic measure
Percussion - correct answer-Clapping of upped hands over various segments of the
lungs to mobilize secretions; can also be called cupping
What electrical stimulation used for - correct answer-To reduce pain, muscle spasm, or
swelling, or she may apply it to increase strength and healing potential
Progressive resistance - correct answer-The gradual progression of an exercise from
easy to more difficult form one set to the next and over time
Overload - correct answer-An excess over what is normal or needed
Specificity - correct answer-the quality of having a certain action, as of affecting only
certain organisms or tissues, or reacting only with certain substances, as antibodies
with certain antigens (antigen specificity).
Concentric Movements - correct answer-Occurs when muscle shortens
Eccentric Movements - correct answer-Motion of an active muscle while it is lengthening
under load
Isometric Movements - correct answer-Joint angle and muscle length do not change
during contraction
Open Kinetic Chain - correct answer-Exercised where the hand and foot are both free to
move
Closed Kinetic Chain - correct answer-hand or foot is fixed in space and cannot more
