Establishing Patient Goals

Goals

Long-Term

Vs.

Short Term

Types of Goals

Types of Goals

  • Strength
  • ROM
  • Get back to Sport/ Activity
  • "Play with my grandchildren"
  • Run a marathon
  • Be pain free

Encourage all aspects of life to be considered

Range of Motion

ROM

  • Swelling
  • Pain
  • Muscle Weakness
  • Inter-articular Obstruction

How do we fix it?

How can we improve ROM?

  • Passive exercise
  • Joint Mobilization
  • Soft Tissue Mobilization
  • Active Motion (Stationary Bike, Pool)

*Most important piece is knowing what is causing the limitation

Strength, Endurance, and Power

Strength

  • Isometric: Resistance exercises held in the static position
  • Isotonic: (eccentric/ concentric) Resistance through ROM
  • Isokinetic: Rely on controlling a fixed speed of contraction with varying resistance through ROM

Neuromuscular Control and Balance

Control, Balance

  • Practice makes perfect! Just like memory takes repetitions, your muscles need repetitions or need to "relearn". If they don't, you are at risk for re-injury.

  • Motor responses from the CNS to the muscles travel an efferent pathway.

  • If patients are injured or immobilized for extended periods of time, they will have proprioceptive deficits and demonstrate a decline in neuromuscular control

Cardiovascular Fitness and

Return to Activity

Functional Testing

How do we know when someone is ready to return to activity?

Tools and Techniques

Tools
