- 26. Types of Suspension Effect & Uses
- 27. These movements are produced by an external force during muscular inactivity is voluntarily reduced as much as possible to permit movements. Passive Movements
- 28. when muscle strength or co- ordination is inadequate to perform a movement an external force is applied to compensate for the deficiency Assisted Exercises
- 29. Treatment or therapeutic exercise given to patients to increase ROM, increase muscle power and support body parts by using ropes and slings. Suspension Therapy
- 31. There are following three types of suspension therapy: Axial Suspension Pendular Suspension Vertical Suspension Types
- 32. It is the most common type. Joint is taken as point of suspension. Limb is supported by the slings above the joint. Limb will move to both sides parallel to floor. Axial Suspension
- 33. Relaxation. Maintain muscle property. Increase blood circulation. Increase venous and lymphatic drainage. Uses
- 34. Point of suspension should be shifted away from the joint axis. Muscles will be getting resistance while moving if the axis is shifted opposite to that movement. Pendular Suspension
- 35. Increase the muscle strength. Increase the muscle endurance. Uses
- 36. COG of the body part or the body is taken as point of suspension. Used to provide support to the body parts of the patient. Vertical Suspension
- 38. It reduces the burden of therapist. Easy to lift the limbs. Active movement can be performed easily with minimum friction. Advantages
- 39. Techniques for individual joints Shoulder - flexion/extension & abduction/adduction Elbow – flexion/extension Hip - Shoulder-flexion/extension & abduction/adduction Knee – flexion/extension

Notas do Editor
- a simple pendulum is a heavy object, suspended by a weightless thread and free to move to & fro..when the pendulum is at rest the thread(rope) is vertical,but if the weight is drwan to one side and then released ,the pendulum will swing to & fro.one complete swing in each directn is called as oscillation,and the extent of swing to any one side from vertical is the amplitude.a force is required to set the pendulum in motion and then the oscillation will continue until it is brought to rest,suddenly,by an opposing force,or progessivy by an opposing force,acceleration is due to gravity.
- Suspension is the means whereby parts of the body are supported in slings and elevated by the use of variable length ropes fixed to a point above the body. Suspension frees the body from the friction of the material upon which body components may be resting and it permits free movement without resistance when the fixation is suitably arranged relative to the supported part. This is a frame big enough to take a single bed
- Vertical fixation is used primarily to support, e.g. the abducted upper limb when the elbow is to be moved is supported from above the centre of gravity of the arm and axial fixation is used over the elbow for forearm movement
- Flexion & ext: The starting position is side lying on pillows and quarter turned to the back. Female patients need two pillows under the head and one under the shoulder to allow the forearm to clear their wider pelvis. The slings and ropes are arranged as described above and again the movement may be limited to the glenohumeral joint and the muscles working over it, or movements of the shoulder girdle may be included.If in addition to the angular movements it is desired to perform rotation of the glenohumeral joint, then only one sling should be used at the level of the elbow and a single pulley rope should be attached to the fixed point above the shoulder. The ends of the sling are attached to each end of the pulley circuit and it will then be possible to perform medial or lateral rotation with two angular movements abduction & adduction:The starting position is lying, quarter turned towards the arm which is to be moved (Fig. 8.21A). This allows the normal anatomical movement to be performed in the plane of the scapula. Alternatively, the starting position is prone lying, quarter turned towards side lying with a pillow under the trunk on the side of the arm which is to be moved (Fig. 8.21B). The advantage of prone lying is that the therapist can see the movements of the scapula as well as those of the arm. Two single ropes are required, one attached to a single sling under the elbow and one to a three-ring sling applied to the wrist and hand. The fixation point is over the shoulder joint. If the movement is to be only of the glenohumeral joint, the therapist must stand on the opposite side with one hand on the point of the shoulder depressing the scapula. In this form of support either abduction and adduction of the glenohumeral joint, or movements of the shoulder girdle, may be mobilized. Glenohumeral rhythm may be re-educated and all the muscles performing shoulder girdle movements may be worked.
- Because of the carrying angle of the forearm it is easier to perform these movements when the arm is suspended in abduction. The starting position is sitting on a low-backed chair. A single sling and rope supports the arm in vertical fixation, and a three-ring sling and single rope are fixed to a point above the elbow joint (Fig. 8.15). The therapist should stand behind as she may need to give additional support by holding the arm with a grasp inside the sling, which will allow palpation of the flexors and extensors which are covered by the supporting sling. Alternatively, a folded single sling under the palm, attached to a single pulley rope, will allow pronation and supination to occur with extension and flexion of the elbow joint.
- The starting position is side lying with the underneath leg flexed as far as possible. The fixation point and sling arrangements are as above, with the limb lifted until it is horizontal. If the movement of flexion is to be mobilized the knee and hip must be flexed together to overcome the passive insufficiency of the hamstrings.Equally, when mobilizing extension the knee should be extended to overcome active insufficiency of the hamstrings
- The starting position is lying with the opposite leg abducted to its limit, even if the knee has to be bent over the side of the plinth and the foot supported on a footstool. The fixation point is immediately above the hip joint. One sling is put under the lower thigh and one three-ring sling on the foot and ankle; each is attached to a rope hung from the fixation point. The limb is lifted just clear of the plinth. Using this method of support the movements of abduction and adduction may be mobilized or the abductor or adductor muscles may be especially worked with or without manual resistance
- The starting position is side lying with one or two pillows between the slightly flexed thighs. One three-ring sling is applied to the foot and ankle and one rope attached to a fixation point above the knee joint. By keeping the hip slightly flexed on the trunk the foot can be seen each time the knee is extended and part of the arc of movement is thus observed by the patient. This position may be used to mobilize the knee joint or to work the flexors or extensors of the knee
