|| || || || || ||
A trigger point can be defined as a hyperirritable node within a taught band of tissue that
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
results in referred pain.
|| || || ||
A. True || ||
B. False - ✔✔A. True
|| || || ||
Healing of hyaline cartilage depends upon
|| || || || || ||
A. Depth of the defect
|| || || ||
B. Maturity of the cartilage
|| || || || ||
C. Location of the Defect
|| || || ||

A football player recently suffered a knee injury resulting in a partial tear of the MCL. His
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
injury was treated conservatively and the tear wasn't surgerically repaired. Even after the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
tissue has healed, you can expect his knee to exhibit laxity with valgus stress because the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
ligament will heal with scarring and lengthen.
|| || || || || || ||
A. True || ||
B. False - ✔✔A. True
|| || || ||
Hooke's law states that: || || || ||
A. Deformation occurs when the stress is greater than the strain.
|| || || || || || || || || ||
B. Stress and strain are inversely related
|| || || || || ||
C. Elasticity is greater in the elastic region.
|| || || || || || ||
D. The amount of change in size or shape is proportional to the force applied. - ✔✔D. The
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
amount of change in size or shape is proportional to the force applied.

|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
patients with a lot of muscle guarding.
|| || || || || || || ||

B. False - ✔✔B. False
|| || || ||

|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
range of motion at the talocurural joint.
|| || || || || ||
A. True ||
B. False - ✔✔A. True
|| || || ||

|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
Collagen. ||
A. True || ||

|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
tissue resistance. || ||
A. True

|| || || ||
When performing joint mobilizations glides, the treatment plane is always:
|| || || || || || || || || ||
A. Parallel to the concave bone
|| || || || || ||
B. Parallel to the convex bone
|| || || || ||
C. Perpendicular to the concave bone

Your athlete comes to you complaining of pain over the anterior shoulder and the medial
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
palmar aspect of the hand. Examination of the glenohumeral joint and deltoid musculature
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
reveals no abnormalies. Thus, you suspect this pain may be referred from a trigger point in
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
what muscle? || ||
