How was the importance of regional examination underscored in this case? True or False, Systematic reinforcement of the posterior pelvic tilt across ass treatment components, combined with explicit patient education creates a unified therapeutic message that extends the treatment effect beyond the clinical setting. Given the limitations of this case study, why is it important to contextualize the outcomes here within the natural history of lumbar stenosis? Which of the following tensions and unfolds the ligamentum flavum? True or False, The anterior pelvic tilt is the biomechanical cornerstone of the Boot Camp protocol. Relief with sitting or lumbar flexion through mechanical decompression and _____________? What is the name of the epidural venous plexus involved in this case of neurogenic claudication? True or False, The patient continued to present for long term maintenance visits beyond the follow up period supporting the long term self management goals established. Home Which of the following were components of the LSS Boot Camp Exercise Program? Which of the following Orthopedic/Functional tests demonstrated a finding that informed subsequent treatment planning because of significant pain relief? On the initial evaluation, why was upper motor neuron screening performed? On the initial evaluation, why was upper motor neuron screening performed? What is the hallmark clinical presentation of LSS? True or False, Spinal Stenosis is one of the leading causes of pain, disability and loss of independence in individuals over 65 years of age. True or False, Lumbar spinal stenosis is a prevalent and progressive condition and represents the most common indication for lumbar spine surgery in adults over 65 years of age. Which of the following is/are true regarding the LSS Boot Camp Program? Primary care physicians and spine specialists should emphasize the importance of preventing sarcopenia progression through: (Copy) ARTICLE THREE EXAM_Chiropractic Rehabilitation for Low Back Pain, Sciatica, and Lumbar Disc Herniation Utilizing Foundation Training Exercises (Copy) Which of the following was NOT used as an outcomes assessment tool in this study: (Copy) Foundation Training utilizes simple movement patterns that are designed to strengthen and coordinate the muscles of the posterior chain of the body. (Copy) Which treatment intervention was NOT used in this study: (Copy) Lumbar disc herniation may be asymptomatic in what percentage of cases: (Copy) There is evidence supporting that when LBP is accompanied by sciatica there is associated delayed recovery, persistent disability, and decreased health care system utilization and costs. (Copy) The risk of SMT ( Spinal Manipulative Therapy ) causing clinically worsened disc herniation or cauda equina syndrome in patients with Lumbar Disc Herniation is estimated be: (Copy) Research has shown that after 20 minutes of full spinal flexion, ligamentous creep or laxity occurs that may persist for: (Copy) According to Panjabi, there are three subsystems that must work in harmony to maintain spinal stability. (Copy) According to Foundational Training: Primary stability occurs when the body is supported by the ligamentous structures more so than muscles, and therefore the joints are under pressure/compressed. (Copy) The mechanics of the Founder exercise are theorized to create a self-decompression of the lumbar spine by the function of which of the following muscles. (Copy) How is nociplastic pain classified in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11)? (Copy) What is the hallmark feature of nociplastic pain? (Copy) Which of the following is NOT a criterion for diagnosing nociplastic pain in the musculoskeletal system? (Copy) What type of imaging has been used to study cerebral activation in nociplastic pain conditions? (Copy) What factor is commonly associated with the development of nociplastic pain in conditions like fibromyalgia? (Copy) What is the role of non-pharmacological treatment in nociplastic pain management? (Copy) ARTICLE TWO EXAM_Multifidus Degeneration The Key Imaging Predictor of Adjacent Segment Disease (Copy) Patients in this study underwent an initial spinal decompression and fusion of: (Copy) The investigators’ hypothesis that there is a significant association between preoperative degeneration in an adjacent disc and future revision surgery was supported by this study. (Copy) Radiographic evidence of increased postoperative malalignment of the lumbar spine and pelvis, including increased lumbar lordosis, pelvic tilt and sacral slope, was associated with adjacent segment disease incidence and future revision surgery. (Copy) The majority of adjacent segment disease (ASD) revision surgeries were required to address: (Copy) The study found that the single strongest predictor of future revision surgery was preoperative fatty infiltration of the: (Copy) The protective role of adequate functional cross-sectional area of the multifidus against future revision surgery is hypothesized to be due to its role as a spinal segmental stabilizer and its ability to maintain physiological loading across adjacent spinal segments. (Copy) Symptomatic adjacent segment disease represents the major driver for worse patient-reported outcomes and revision surgery. (Copy) Which of the following have been associated with poor postoperative outcomes (Copy) Impaired muscle health has been increasingly recognized as a marker of: (Copy) ARTICLE ONE_The Concept of Nociplastic Pain—Where to from here?.pdf (Copy) ARTICLE TWO_Multifidus Degeneration The Key Imaging Predictor of Adjacent Segment Disease.pdf (Copy)
