Across
- 1. The ability of the heart and lungs to supply oxygen to muscles during prolonged physical activity.
- 7. Inflammation The first phase of rehabilitation focusing on reducing pain, swelling, and inflammation.
- 9. Exercises prescribed to enhance strength, flexibility, and overall function during rehabilitation.
- 11. The second phase of rehabilitation focused on strengthening damaged tissues and improving range of motion.
- 16. Exercises where the muscle length does not change during contraction, used to increase static strength.
- 17. The range of motion performed with added resistance, used to assess strength.
- 20. A muscle contraction where the muscle length remains the same.
- 21. Documentation detailing the patient's progress during treatment and rehabilitation.
- 22. The ability to maintain the body's center of gravity within its base of support, crucial for injury prevention and rehabilitation.
- 24. A PNF technique where the muscle is isometrically contracted and then relaxed to allow a deeper stretch.
- 26. Neuromuscular Fascilitation a stretching technique that combines muscle contraction and stretching to improve flexibility and range of motion, commonly used in rehabilitation.
- 27. A muscle contraction where the muscle changes length, either shortening (concentric) or lengthening (eccentric).
- 29. The range through which a joint can be moved by an external force without the patient's assistance.
- 31. Exercises performed at a constant speed with varying resistance, often using specialized equipment to measure strength and torque.
Down
- 2. The final phase of rehabilitation, aimed at preparing the patient to return to normal activities, including sports or work.
- 3. A type of muscle contraction where the muscle lengthens while generating force, often used for deceleration activities.
- 4. Movement performed with partial assistance, often used for patients with muscle weakness.
- 5. Exercises Exercises where the resistance increases gradually as the muscle adapts, commonly using free weights or machines.
- 6. Test A test to evaluate muscle strength by having the patient resist the examiner's force, graded on a scale from 0 to 5.
- 8. The range through which a patient can actively move a joint without assistance.
- 10. A proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching technique where the muscle is contracted before being stretched.
- 12. The body's ability to sense its position and movement in space, essential for balance and coordination.
- 13. A type of muscle contraction where the muscle shortens as it generates force.
- 14. A PNF technique involving alternating contraction and relaxation to improve flexibility and range of motion.
- 15. Exercises designed to mimic the movements required for daily activities or sports, used in later stages of rehabilitation.
- 18. A structured method of documentation used in healthcare that stands for Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan.
- 19. The ability to maintain balance and control body position, critical in rehabilitation for preventing falls.
- 23. A tool used to measure the range of motion of a joint, important for tracking rehabilitation progress.
- 25. Exercises where the distal segment (hand or foot) is not fixed and can move freely.
- 28. Exercises where the distal segment is fixed and cannot move, providing more stability.
- 30. Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, Timely: goal setting framework
