3. restore full ROM
4. Restore core stability
5. restore or increase muscular strength, endurance, and power
6. re-establish neuromuscular control
7. regain/improve balance
8. maintain cardiorespiratory fitness
9. incorporate functional progressions
10. functional testing
Concentric contraction - ANSWER-muscle shortens
eccentric contraction - ANSWER-muscle lengthens
Full recovery criteria - ANSWER-1. ROM
2. Strength
3. Neuromuscular control
4. Sport specific functional skills
5. Cardiovascular fitness
6. Full confidence
Functional progressions are what? - ANSWER-gradual progressive activities designed
to prepare the individual for return to a specific sport
how is balance gained? - ANSWER-functional activities during rehab program
hydrocollator packs - ANSWER-gel-filled packs that are warmed in a water bath and
should be used for 20-30 minute treatment time
Isokinetic def. - ANSWER-fixed velocity but resistance changes
Isokinetic Exercise - ANSWER-requires specialized computerized machine and best
because it is a change in resistance through full ROM but constant speed
Isokinetic exercises are commonly used for what? - ANSWER-criteria for return to
functional activity following injury
Isometric def. - ANSWER-muscle contraction and no movement
Isometric Exercise - ANSWER-contraction of muscle but no change in length
