Term
What adjustment would be necessary for a patient that presents with loss of fluid motion and pain at the involved metacarpal joint
Definition
metacarpophalangeal Joint TRXN
Term
What adjustment would be necessary for a patient with sharp pain at the carpometacarpal joint. Pain may extend along the mid shaft of the 2nd and 3rd metacarpal.
Definition
2nd and 3rd metacarpal single thumb. Rotation is the thrust
Term
The doctor will palpate a loss of fluid motion from superior to inferior. The distal end of the clavicle will visualize as being more superior to the trapezius muscle as compared to the opposite side. Point tenderness may be elicited at the acromioclavicular articulation
Definition
ST-CL (PS)
Term
This adjustment is good for any GH misalignment especially good for OA
Definition
GH TRXN (supine/seated)
Term
What adjustment would be necessary for a patient with loss of normal motion and pain on the posterior GH
Definition
GH (p)
Term
What adjustment would be necessary if there is a loss of I-S motion; the humerus is visualized inferior to the distal clavicle; pain is at the anterior GH joint
Definition
GH (I)
Term
What adjustment would be necessary for a loss of motion at the humeral radial joint with point tenderness
Definition
Radius (P)
Term
This move would be indicated for involvement of the humeroradial or humeroulnar involvement especially if the patient has limited extension of the elbow
Definition
Elbow TRXN Supine
Term
What adjustment would be necessary if patient presents with pain 1.5" distal to the medial epicondyle. The doctor notes loss of fluid motion at the humeroulnar articulation.
Definition
Ulna (P)
Term
What adjustment would be necessary if the doctor notes a loss of fluid motion at the humeroulnar articulation. Point tenderness will be noted at the olecranon fossa.
Definition
Ulna (P-M)
Term
What adjustment would be necessary when the doctor notes that the patients rib does not return to normal position on full expiration of the patient. Unilateral pain is felt at one level
Definition
Sternocostal Articulation (Superior Inspiration fixation)
Term
What adjustment would be necessary when the doctor notes that the patients rib does not rise fully when the patient fully inspires. Unilateral pain is felt at one level
Definition
Sternocostal Articulation (Inferior Expiration Fixation)
Term
The doctor will palpate a loss of motion at the sternocostal articulation as the patient is taking full inspirations and expirations there may be point tenderness at the sternocostal articulation that occasionally radiates laterally
Definition
Sternocostal Articulation TRXN Sitting/Supine
Term
The doctor finds a loss of motion as the scapula is moved from medial to lateral. There may be a dull ache anterior to the scapula.
Definition
Scapula (M)-Side Lying/Prone
Term
The doctor finds a loss of motion as the scapula is moved from lateral to medial. There may be a dull ache anterior to the scapula.
Definition
Scapula (L)
Term
This move is used for patients with a dislocated shoulder
Definition
Kocher Maneuver
Term
The doctor will palpate a loss of motion or crepitation at the sternoclavicular joint as the patient shruggs their shoulders. There is not necessarily a misalignment. There may be point tenderness at the sternoclavicular joint
Definition
ST-CL TRXN
Term
The doctor palpates a loss of motion at the sternoclavicular joint. The proximal head of the clavicle is visualized as being more superior than the opposite side. There may be point tenderness at the sternoclavicular joint
Definition
ST-CL (S)
Term
Patient has a complete loss of motion at the GH joint. Adduction is usually not a problem
Definition
Adhesive Capsulitis
Term
This move would be indicated for a carpel misalignment
Definition
Wrist TRXN
Term
The doctor will find a loss of fluid motion on the involved carpal. There may also be point tenderness on the involved carpal.
Definition
Wrist Single thumb/Double Thumb
Term
The doctor will find a loss of fluid motion from posterior to anterior. There also may be point tenderness at the first carpometacarpal joint
Definition
First metacarpal DTH
Term
The thermocouple glide speed in the thoracolumbar regoin is
Definition
2 sec per segment/38-41 sec avg
Term
The thermocouple glide speed in the cervical region is
Definition
3 sec per segment/ 18-21 sec avg
Term
a rapid deflection of the needle back and forth over the distance of one segmental field is defined as
Definition
break analysis
Term
a deflection of the needle over more than one segmental level is defined as
Definition
Heat swing
Term
The doctor must check the region ___ times before marking a break
Definition
3X
Term
The mark is placed 1/4 of an inch below the middle of the terminals
Definition
Cervical break mark
Term
A ___ is often marked rather than a true break
Definition
break recession
Term
The mark is placed 1/2 of an inch above the middle of the terminals
Definition
ThroacoLumbar break mark
Term
The break is measured above in the thoracolumbar because
Definition
as soon as the break has been seen the break has already occurred.
Term
This break occurs slightly inferior to the occiput
Definition
C1& C0 break level (Xray and mopal is used to determine the involvement)
Term
This break occurs inferior to the spinous process
Definition
C2-T3 break
Term
This break occurs at the same level as the spinous process
Definition
T4 break
Term
This break appears in the interspinous space above the spinous process
Definition
T5-9 break
Term
This break occurs at the level of the spinous process
Definition
T10-12
Term
This break occurs at the lower 25% of the spinous process
Definition
L1-L5
Term
To properly document the break analysis you must write down the ___
Definition
level, amplitude, and direction
