compression, water, sound. (Examples) Mechanical traction,|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
elastic bandage, stockings, whirlpool, ultrasound.
|\ |\ |\ |\
Electromagnetic - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔(Types) |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Electromagnetic fields, electrical currents. (Examples) Ultraviolet, |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
laser, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS).
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Conduction - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔1. Energy exchange by
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
direct collision between the molecules of two materials at
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
different temperatures |\
Modalities that use conduction: |\ |\ |\
A. Hot pack or warm paraffin—heat from the agent to the patient
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
B. Ice pack—heat from the patient to the agent
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Convection - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔2. Heat transfer by direct
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
contact between a circulating medium with another material of a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
different temperature |\
a. Modalities that use convection: whirlpool and fluidotherapy
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
, Conversion - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔2. Heat transfer by |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
conversion involves conversion of a nonthermal form of energy
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
such as mechanical, electrical, or chemical energy into heat.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
. Modalities that use conversion: Ultrasound and diathermy
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Radiation - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔2. the transfer of energy from
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
a material with a higher temperature to one with a lower
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
temperature without an intervening medium or contact. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
. Modalities that use radiation: Infrared (IR) lamps
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Evaporation - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔2. A material must absorb |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
energy to evaporate, or change from a liquid to a gas, or vapor.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
. Modalities that use evaporation: vapocoolant
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
