What happens during the on-field assessment?

- determine athlete's disposition efficiently
- refers to tasks not done in the clinical setting
What happens during the clinical assessment?
- secondary survey (HOPS)

Definition of palpation

the art of seeing with your hands
AROM
- Active Range of Motion
- always done first
- joint motion produced by patient contracting muscles
PROM
- Passive Range of Motion
- clinician moves the joint through the ROM
Accessory Motion
- arthrokinematics - "joint play"
- ex: to flex glenohumeral joint (osteokinematics), the humeral head must slide inferiorly (arthrokinematics)
RROM Measurement Techniques
- isotonic = with weights
- isometric = with dynamometer
- isokinetic = with specific controlled speed dynamometer
Force-Couples relationships

muscles acting in their synergies to produce force, stabilize or reduce force
Length Tension relationships

optimal force at optimal length (shortened and elongated alter function)
Reciprocal Inhibition

overactive or tight agonist will inhibit the antagonist
Synergistic Dominance

synergist attempt to assume the role of the agonist to produce movement and force
