KENNEDY-MALONE MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDERS ACTUAL EXAM/
MOSTLY TESTED QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED ANSWERS|
100% CORRECT SOLUTIONS/GRADE A+
Heberden's nodes Swelling of distal
interphalangeal finger joints,
characteristic of osteoarthritis
Bouchard's nodes swelling at the proximal
interphalangeal joints in
osteoarthritis involving the
hands
Rheumatoid nodules develop at pressure points
along the extensor surface of
the ulna in patients with
rheumatoid arthritis or acute
rheumatic fever. They are
firm and nontender. They are
not attached to the overlying
skin but may be attached to
the underlying periosteum.
They can develop in the area
of the olecranon bursa, but
often occur more distally
=often found on the dorsum
of wrist, elbow or
metacarpophalangeal joint
, Haygarth's nodes Soft tissue periarticular
swellings at dorsal surface of
MCP jts
finding of RA
dactylitis inflammation of the fingers
and/or toes
-
Bursitis and Tendonitis Inflammation of bursae or common origins of bursitis
tendon sheath
Caused by injury or over
extension
Symptoms: pain/ swelling
Treatment: rest, ice, anti-
inflammatory
prepatellar Retrocalcaneal Bursitis
olecranon
trochanteric
retrocalcaneal
Inflammation of the Supraspinatus tendonitis
bursa between the
Achilles tendon and
the calcaneus.
Inflammation of the Bicipital Tendonitis
supraspinatus tendon
and surrounding
rotator cuff tissues.
Often accompanies Most common causes of
rotator cuff tendonitis shoulder pain and tenderness
Pain can be sever and
radiates down anterior
aspect of humerus
supraspinatus Treatment of acute soft tissue PRICEMM
tendonitis syndromes P-Protect with padding, braces
tenosynovitis R-Rest, avoid activities that
subacromial bursitis make pain worse
I-Ice
C-Compression
E-Elevation
