Extrinsic extensor tightness can be confirmed when the PIP & DIP flexion is limited when the MP joint is passively flexed
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Extrinsic extensor tightness refers to a condition where the extensor tendons in the hand and fingers become tight, leading to limited flexion of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) and distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints when the metacarpophalangeal (MP) joint is flexed passively. This means that when the MP joint is bent, the PIP and DIP joints cannot flex fully due to the tightness of the extensor tendons. Therefore, the statement "Extrinsic extensor tightness can be confirmed when the PIP & DIP flexion is limited when the MP joint is passively flexed" is true.Rate this question:

Correct Answer(s)
B. Vasodilation
C. Phagocytosis
E. VasoconstrictionExplanation
During Stage 1, the inflammatory stage, of wound healing, vasodilation occurs. This is the widening of blood vessels, which increases blood flow to the injured area. Phagocytosis also occurs, which is the process of white blood cells engulfing and destroying bacteria and debris. Vasoconstriction, on the other hand, is the narrowing of blood vessels and is not a characteristic of the inflammatory stage.Rate this question:
-
- 10.
The 2nd stage of wound healing is:
Correct Answer(s)
Fibroplasia
Repair and Regeneration
Explanation
The 2nd stage of wound healing is fibroplasia, repair, and regeneration. During this stage, fibroblasts migrate to the wound site and begin to produce collagen, which forms a framework for new tissue growth. This stage also involves angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, to provide oxygen and nutrients to the healing tissue. Additionally, the wound begins to contract as myofibroblasts pull the wound edges together. Overall, this stage is crucial for the formation of new tissue and the restoration of the wound's structural integrity.Rate this question:
- 11.
This kind of swelling routinely occurs after injury.
Correct Answer(s)
EdemaExplanation
Edema refers to the accumulation of excess fluid in the body's tissues, leading to swelling. It is a common occurrence following an injury as a result of inflammation and increased blood flow to the affected area. The body's response to injury includes releasing chemicals that cause blood vessels to become leaky, allowing fluid to escape into the surrounding tissues. This fluid buildup causes the characteristic swelling associated with edema. Therefore, given that the question mentions swelling after injury, edema is the most appropriate answer.Rate this question:
- 12.
This stage of wound healing lasts 1-6 days after injury.
- A.
Inflammatory
- B.
Fibroplasia Phase
- C.
Repair Phase
- D.
Regeneration Phase
Correct Answer
A. InflammatoryExplanation
During the inflammatory stage of wound healing, the body's immune response is activated to remove any debris or pathogens from the wound site. This stage typically lasts for 1-6 days after the injury. The inflammatory response involves the release of various chemical signals that attract immune cells to the site, causing redness, swelling, and pain. This stage is crucial for initiating the healing process and preparing the wound for the subsequent phases of healing.Rate this question:

Joint Contracture is indicated by:
- A.
Passive limitation of joint motion
- B.
PROM of the joint does not change despite repositioning of proximal or distal joints
- C.
PROM exceeds AROM at a joint
Correct Answer
A. Passive limitation of joint motionExplanation
Joint contracture is indicated by passive limitation of joint motion. This means that the joint cannot be moved through its full range of motion without assistance. In joint contracture, the joint becomes stiff and tight, resulting in a decreased ability to move the joint. This can be caused by various factors such as prolonged immobilization, muscle weakness, or scar tissue formation. It is important to address joint contracture early on to prevent further complications and maintain joint function.Rate this question:
-
- 15.
Joint Lag is indicated by:
- A.
PROM of the joint does not change despite repositioning of proximal or distal joints
- B.
PROM exceeds AROM at a joint
- C.
Passive limitation of joint motion
Correct Answer
B. PROM exceeds AROM at a jointExplanation
PROM (Passive Range of Motion) refers to the movement of a joint when an external force is applied, while AROM (Active Range of Motion) refers to the movement of a joint when the individual uses their own muscles to move it. When PROM exceeds AROM at a joint, it means that the joint can be moved further when an external force is applied compared to when the individual tries to move it themselves. This suggests that there is a limitation in the joint's ability to move actively, indicating joint lag.Rate this question:
-
- 16.
Joint Tightness is indicated by:
- A.
PROM exceeds AROM at a joint
- B.
Passive limitation of joint motion
- C.
PROM of the joint does not change despite repositioning of proximal or distal joints
Correct Answer
C. PROM of the joint does not change despite repositioning of proximal or distal jointsExplanation
This answer indicates that joint tightness is indicated by the lack of change in passive range of motion (PROM) of the joint, even when the proximal or distal joints are repositioned. This suggests that there is a restriction or limitation in the joint's ability to move freely.Rate this question:
