Each student will be assigned a patient scenario. Each student is required to submit an individually completed research paper; complete with references and citations within text (APA style) from peer reviewedmedical or therapy journals.
Using the patient scenarios below:
1. Follow the rubric criteria.
2. Include your assigned patient information at the beginning of the paper.
3. Discuss the condition/diagnosis in terms of basic information, pathology, phase of healing.
4. Identify and define 3 physical agents that are appropriate for the patient per scenario and the method of transference into the body.
5. Correlate the interventions chosen with the condition and the rationalefor the choices based on that particular condition /diagnosis.
6. Identify the physiological effects delivered to the body for each modality.
7. Identify therapeutic goals/indications for the patient needs for each modality chosen.
8. Indicate each physical modality treatment parameters and include supportive statements (from research articles, 1 from a book, 2 journal resources within the last 15years) for the choice of these parameters. Hint: make sure to cite research articles within text when appropriate.
9. Discuss all treatment precautions and contraindications that are appropriate for the patient.
10. Provide a summary based on research of the literature for the efficacy of each modality and provide all appropriate citations. FOLLOW THE RUBRIC CRITERIA!!
Patient Scenarios
A. Miss Tedo is 69-year-old female with a diagnosis of cervical degenerative joint disease.
Subjective: Patient states that she has neck stiffness and pain rated as6/10. Patient states that she has tingling and pain (5/10) that radiates down the right arm to the little finger.
Clinical Findings: She presents with limited cervical range of motion,30o of rotation bilaterally and 10o of lateral flexion bilaterally. She exhibits moderate cervical paravertebral muscle hypertonus with a forward flexed posture and poor postural awareness.
Therapy Goals: Reduce pain in the cervical spine and RUE, decreasecervical muscle hypertonus, improve cervical spine facet mobility and range of motion, improve postural awareness and postural alignment.
Plan of Care: Provide physical agents/modalities to accomplish the therapy goals.
• Pain reduction
• Muscle hypertonus
• Postural awareness
