Classifications of reflexes A) Primitive reflexes and genetic sub-programs 1. Reflex responses to light touch: Light touch produces a variety of reflex responses‚ depending upon the area stimulated and the age of the individual. The motor responses are most marked in the early months of life. Grasp reflex (palmar and plantar): Light touch of the palm or sole produces reflex flexion of the fingers or toes. The most effective way to elicit the reflex is to

Sheep Heart Dissection Purpose: Sheep have a four-chambered heart‚ just like humans. By studying the anatomy of a sheep’s heart‚ you can learn about how your own heart pumps blood through your body and keeps you alive!. Procedure Observation: External Anatomy Most heart diagrams show the left atrium and ventricle on the right side of the diagram. Imagine the heart in the body of a person facing you. The left side of their heart is on their left‚ but since you are facing them‚ it is on your

Ultrasound Physical effects of ultrasound: 1- Thermal effects 2- Non-thermal effects 3- Effect of US in tissue repair First: thermal effect @ It is due to generation of heat within the tissue due to adsorption of US. @ Tissue with high amount of protein absorbs US more than other tissues. @ Generation of heat within the tissue will decrease pain‚ joint stiffness & increase blood flow. @ Thermal effect achieved if the temperature of the tissue is raised to 40°c - 45°c for at least

the ball to slightly or wholly come out of the socket that it is in. Dislocations are uncommon in younger children because their growth plates which are the area of bone growth located in the ends of long bones are scrawnier than the muscles or tendons. Due to this‚ children are more disposed to fracture rather than dislocation. The diagram to the right shows all types of joints in the body. These are examples where it is common for the bone to fall out of its place and where it isn’t sitting

Homeostasis‚ the tendency towards a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements‚ especially as maintained by physiological processes. Any living creature needs to maintain a constant internal environment in order for their cells to work at optimal levels in order for them to survive and reproduce. Thermoregulation is a type of homeostasis that keeps the internal body temperature at a consistent level despite external stimuli. When the thermoreceptors in the skin/hypothalamus notice

surgeon and cardiologist were consulted and Mary Smith was x-rayed over numerous parts of her body. She was treated for cardiac contusion and a comminuted fracture of her os calcis and Achilles tendon. Nine days later‚ Mary Smith underwent surgery and catheterization to repair her broken ankle and Achilles tendon. During her wait period‚ she developed an infection. She remained in a cast for six weeks after the surgery. After the removal of the cast‚ she received physical therapy for six weeks.

I was able to return to soccer and was also in physical therapy to help strengthen my foot when it was re-injured. I had partially ruptured my Achilles tendon when I returned to playing soccer and was still in physical therapy‚ so I had to stop therapy until my foot healed. Once it healed‚ I was back in therapy to help heal and strengthen my foot. I had to use exercises from past therapy to help strenghten
