PHTY207 Lecture Notes - Lecture 12: Exudate, Shoulder Girdle, Ulnar Nerve
Document Summary
Scap depression, shr abd, wrist ext, wrist supination, shr er, Elbow ext, (lat flex neck away: median nerve bias 2. Shoulder depression, whole arm er, elbow ext, wrist supination, wrist ext, finger ext: radial nerve, runs lateral and posterior, radial nerve bias. Shoulder depression, whole arm ir, elbow ext, pronation, wrist flexion, finger flexion, should abd: ulnar nerve, vulnerable sites. Start with sliders (large range, out of tension movements: techniques that provoke lasting increase in symptoms are not selected, may start away from offending dysfunction/pathology or use other limb. Start with the rest of the body unloaded i. e. shoulder girdle depression oscillations, with elbow flexed and cx lf to test side: consider order of movement application. If passive mobilisations successful in treatment, then integrate active mobilisation as soon as possible: then take into direction of dysfunction, progressions, consider increasing (where clinically appropriate, number of applications, duration of the application, amplitude of the technique.
