MS 1 final exam USAHSWhen a joint is referred to as ____________, it means the motion at that joint is limited. There are many factors that can contribute to restricted motion, such as pain, musculotendinous unit dysfunction, bony block, postural malalignment, and effusion. - correct answer hypomobile A ________________ refers to the adaptive shortening of the soft tissue structures that surround a joint. This causes limited passive and active range of motion. - correct answer contracture ______________ contracture: the adaptive shortening of the musculotendinous unit and a significant loss of ROM without a specific muscle pathology. These types of contractures can typically be resolved by stretching exercises within a short period of time. - correct answer Myostatic _______________ contracture: This can be caused by hypertonicity due to a central nervous system lesion, such as a spinal cord injury or traumatic brain injury. It can also be caused by muscle guarding or spasm. - correct answer Pseudomyostatic ______________ and _____________ contracture: This can result from adhesions, effusion, osteophytes, or other intra-articular pathology. - correct answer Arthrogenic and periarticular __________ contracture and irreversible contracture: This can result from fibrous changes within the connective tissue of muscle that cause soft tissue structures to adhere to other structures. When normal muscle and connective tissue is replaced by large amounts of fibrotic tissue, such as scar tissue, soft tissue extensibility may not be able to be regained through even surgical interventions. If a fibrotic contracture goes untreated for a long period of time, it may become irreversible. - correct answer Fibrotic _______________ - stretching of a joint well beyond its normal length of muscle and the ROM of the joint and surrounding soft tissues - can lead to hypermobility - correct answer Overstretching _____________ - excessive mobility that can cause detrimental joint instability if the supporting structures of the muscle control of the joint cannot keep it in stable position during activities - this may lead to an increased risk of injuries - correct answer Hypermobility
