1.

You have a 62 y.o. patient who had an ischemic stroke 2 years ago and is coming to you because she fell and broke her hip 8 weeks ago and thinks she is weak. She has 4 steps to enter her home and lives by herself. On assessment, you notice that she has an AFO on the R foot and evident flexion contracture in her R hand/UE. What are some treatment techniques worth considering? (select all that apply)
- A.
  
  Consider activities involving upper extremity WB in order to increase bone strength
- B.

2.

Two athletes competing to win a one mile race separate. One stays at sea level, and one goes to the top of Mt. Everest. After 6 months of training at their respective locations, the Mt. Everest athlete comes back to sea level to compete. What are some possible scenarios? (select all that apply)
- A.
  
  The Mt. Everest athlete wins because everybody knows that when you train at high altitudes you always win because your muscles have been trained with low oxygen and now there is a ton of oxygen at sea level.

You are treating an elderly patient who suffered from a fall, combined with a history of cervical stenosis resulting in a SCI at C6. Your patient suddenly starts to present a flushed face and neck, and complains of headache and blurred vision. What is happening to the nervous system and circulatory system and what might you check on the patient to address autonomic dysreflexia? (single best answer)
- A.
  
  There is a sympathetic response below the level of injury, which is causing vasodilation and decreased blood pressure, which descending control from the brain cannot regulate. Check for noxious stimuli below level of injury, like bladder/bowel fullness.
- B.
  
  There is a sympathetic response to positional change above the level of injury, which is causing vasoconstriction and increased blood pressure. Check for spasticity in UE.
- C.
  
  There is a sympathetic response below the level of injury causing vasoconstriction and increased blood pressure, which descending control from the brain cannot regulate. Check for noxious stimuli below level of injury, like bladder/bowel fullness.
- D.
  
  There is a parasympathetic response below the level of injury, which is causing vasodilation and decreased blood pressure which descending control from the brain cannot regulate. Check for spasticity in LE.
11.

You have a patient who is 75 years old and a fall risk, who does not believe strength training will help their condition, telling you, “I’m just getting old.” Which of the following is the most scientifically accurate argument that strength training will help them (single best answer):
- A.
  
  Showing the patient pictures of elderly athletes and telling them “You can do it too!”
- B.
  
  Yes, as we age we lose motor neurons and motor units, but some of these effects are reversible. If you strength train with heavy resistance at a slow speed, you can grow back the powerful muscles you had in your twenties.
- C.
  
  Yes, as we age we lose motor neurons and motor units, but some of these effects are reversible. The resistance provided from water during swimming is enough to improve muscle strength and balance on land.
- D.
  
  Yes, as we age we lose motor neurons and motor units, but some of these effects are reversible. Resistance training "as fast as you can" with moderate loads will increase muscle fiber size and improve balance.
