etiology
causes or origins of disease
disease
condition of abnormal function involving anatomic structures of body systems- characterized by recognizable set of signs and symptoms
diagnosis
evaluation of physical signs and symptoms, medical history, physical examination, and other procedures that lead to identify diseases
functional limitation
inability to perform activities such as work, community, ADLs, and IADLs (shopping, driving, housework)
chronic disease
develops gradually, vague or mild symptoms, lasts longer than 6 months
what's the timeline of the healing phase on remodeling:
3 to 6 weeks
what's the timeline of the healing phase on inflammation?
4 to 6 days
asymptomatic
disease without symptoms
mortality
number of deaths resulting from a disease in a given time period
what causes inflammation?
skin abrasions, cuts, trauma, infective organisms chemicals, and foreign bodies
local disease
affects one body area
disease
abnormality of structure or function of part, organ, or system
what's the timeline of the healing phase on proliferation?
10 to 17 days
systemic disease
distribute throughout the body
PT diagnosis
Impact of injury/condition on function
prognosis
predictions of how disease will progress and chances of recovery
physical therapy of treatment
focus is on treating the impairments associated with the disease; decreased strength, balance, etc.
impairments AFFECT functional limitation
a Pt. has poor balance (impairment) therefore they cannot ambulate 10' (functional limitation)
syndrome
group of signs and symptoms that occurring together to present a disease or abnormality
acute
from a few hours to several days
what are the degree of the involved disease?
local disease systemic disease acute disease chronic disease
impairments
Include items such as arousal, attention, muscle performance, ROM, balance, nerve integrity
sub-acute
begging in 1st 24 hours from a few hours to several weeks
pandemic
disease the involves large numbers of people in several regions, even worldwide
what are some predisposing causes of disease
age gender heredity living conditions emotional disturbance physical and chemical damage occupational disease preexisting illness
Eosinophils inflammation at the cellular level
2-3 days after PMN slow moving phagocytic chronic inflammation
incidence
number of new cases in a particular population during a period of time
risk factors
tendencies taht promote disease development
complications
conditions arising after onset of original disease
idiopathic
disease without a known cause
remission
period of partial or complete disappearance of signs and symptoms
medical model of treatment
focus is treating the disease
prevalence
number of existing new and old cases of a disease within a specific population and time period
medical diagnosis
the identification of a disease or condition by a doctor
exacerbation
period of increased signs and symptoms
symptoms
subjective feelings of which only the affected person is aware
acute on chronic
injury not fully healed when it is re-injured
epidemic
occurs when a disease affects a large number of people at the same times within a region
what are examples of CAM complementary and alternative medicine?
naturopathy chiropatic acupuncture biofeedback exercise, massage, yoga, meditation NIH: national center for complementary and alternative medicine (NCCAM)
what does inflammation do?
serves to isolate the area, in order for the problem to be resolved
polymorphonuclear (PMN) neutrophils inflammation at the cellular level
most plentiful WBCs seen 5-6 hr post injury migrate in great numbers short life span replaced by mononuclear phagocytes in 24-48hr: monocytes and macrophages
morbidity
rate a disease occurs within a group or area
acute disease
abrupt onset and runs a brief course
signs
objective indicators of disease obvious to someone other than affected individual -can be measured and observed
how can you identify with diseases?
felt or observed by others known or unknown cause variable severity of effects
chronic
if inflammations persists after a few days
pathology
study of disease
what are the body's natural defense mechanisms?
physical and chemical barriers inflammation immune response
what are the cardinal signs of inflammation?
erythema increased tissue temperature edema pain loss of function
what are examples of risk factors for contracting a disease?
age gender genetics lifestyle environment stress
