Exam 19: Mobilization and Exercise: Testing and Training

Functional residual capacity (FRC),is the volume of air remaining in the lungs at the:

Because of the marked changes that can be expected with body positioning and body positioning changes,the physical therapist has a narrow window of opportunity to assess and:

The head-down position augments oxygen transport in some patients by:

The side-lying position accentuates anteroposterior expansion at the expense of transverse excursion of the:

Frequent body position changes are used by physical therapists to stimulate:

The prone position,which is underused clinically,can have such a significant powerful effect on:

The distribution of ventilation is determined primarily by:

The prone position increases:

The practice of routinely turning patients every 2 hours continues to be an:

A common practice is to progressively turn patients in:

Prescription of body positioning is based on an analysis of the factors that:

Positioning patients between treatments can contribute as much to the overall treatment response as the treatment itself because:

In the mid-1800s,the use of immobilization to heal bones and injuries was extended to the:

Extreme body position changes simulate,but do not replace,the:

Body positions that simulate the normal physiological effects of gravity and position change on oxygen transport are:

Prescriptive body positioning is based on:

An increase in intrathoracic blood volume in the supine position also contributes to a(n):

Body position should first be exploited when coupled with movement followed by the:

There is mounting physiological and scientific justification for use of the prone position to enhance arterial oxygenation and reduce the work of:

Side-lying increases end-diastolic ventricular pressure on the dependent side secondary to compression of the viscera beneath the diaphragm and to:
