Pain that occurs very early on within the ROM may indicate a muscle or a joint injury, or a combination of both, and is usually described as the patient having an “empty” end feel.

Your pt. with an MCL tear is in need of healing. For this ligamentous type tissue, if kept completely immobile during its healing time, we find that the ultimate repair will be stronger, as there will be adequate forces influencing the alignment of the collagen molecule formation.

Your patient needs to work on local muscle endurance for functional purposes. How many reps and rest would you apply?

The “SAID” principle means that the body responds by Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands; so if we desire hypertrophy vs. m. endurance we have to challenge the body’s systems in differing ways and will develop certain muscle fiber types, by adjusting the exercise volume accordingly.

Referring to measuring ROM,  passive being the most reliably documented as we have published normal’s for adults, and is usually more than active ROM that is limited by the active insufficiencies.

Pain, tenderness, mild inflammation/warmth, morning stiffness lasting less than an hour, along with joint crepitus (cracking sound or feel) are common signs and symptoms associated with osteoarthritis, which vary in degree depending upon their acuity level.

The scale reads 1. 3 pounds when empty, introducing a systematic error that makes all measurements 1.3 pounds too high.

An absolute error and a relative error imply the same value.

An absolute error in measurement is a difference between a claimed value and a true value.
