Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is to use prefixes, suffixes, word roots, and combining vowels to build and define medical terms; to use basic medical language in written communication; and to interpret the meaning of medical terms used in written and verbal communication.

Action Items
1. Look through for English journal articles on human anatomy. Choose an article.
2. Select 5 medical terms from the article.
3. In the first column list the medical term.
4. In the second column, list any prefixes and define them.
5. In the third column, list the root and define it.
6. In the fourth column, list any suffixes and define them.
7. In the fifth column list the exact definition of the term.

Can you please explain in detail. Thanks

TASK 1

Minimise atrophy of the external rotator muscles at the glenohumeral joint as person recovers from injury and has restricted range of the GHJ.

  1. What exercise would you use? Type of contraction? Single or multi-joint? Open or closed kinetic chain?
  2. What strategies would you use when teaching a patient to perform this exercise who is in the cognitive phase of skill acquisition?
  3. Once fully recovered and all movement at the GHK is allowed, how would you modify/progress the exercise to continue to increase the strength of those muscles?
  4. Describe the prescription variables that you would use to improve strength (reps, sets etc).

TASK 2

The Barbell Squat

  1. How would you teach a person to barbell squat in cognitive phase of skill acquisition? What are the key features of this phase of skill acquisition?
  2. What muscles are the agonist / antagonist in each phase of the exercise?
  3. What types of muscle contractions are involved for the hip, knee and trunk extensors? Isometric, eccentric or concentric?
  4. Is this exercise open or closed kinetic chain, single or multi- joint?
  5. If a person had poor balance but you needed to strengthen the trunk, hip, and knee extensor muscles, how could you modify this exercise by changing the type of resistance?
  6. What are the advantages and limitations of using a squat compared to single-joint exercises for each individual muscle?

Your small private dental practice, which is within an urban city, has many long-standing patients. A number of patients within the practice are on public assistance and struggle with money issues. Dr. Gordon is very generous and understanding about her patients’ limitations and often provides free dental services. Your next patient of the morning is jason S, a 14 year old junior high school soccer player. His mother has made an emergency appointment, as he was hit in the mouth during a soccer game yesterday. His mother is concerned that jason’s front teeth may be loose as a result. His mother reports that jason has a thorough “cleaning” in another dental office 4 months ago. Clinical examination reveals no trauma but some mobility, so you take radiographs. Clinically, jason presents with no obvious signs or symptoms of disease, with lack of tissue inflammation and minimal amounts of plaque biofilm. Jason’s radiograph, however, shows moderate vertical bone loss around the maxillary central incisors and mandibular central incisors. Bitewing radiographs also indicate moderate bone loss around the maxillary and mandibular first molars. Probe readings on his incisors and molars are in the 4 to 6 mm range. You present your finding to Dr. Gordon, who asks you to perform thorough periodontal instrumentation on jason. You remind Dr. Gordon, that jason had a dental hygiene appointment in another office 4 months ago and that his insurance only allows for periodontal instrumentation every 6 months. Dr. Gordon states that jason is in dire need of this treatment and ask you in instruct the office manager to hold off on submitting jason insurance claim until it is within the 6 months time frame.

  1. How would you classify jason’s periodontal condition?

  2. What ethical principles are in conflict in this dilemma?

  3. What is the best way for you to handle this ethical dilemma?

  4. What should you do when treating future patients?
