Postoperative Rehabilitation Postoperative rehabilitation protocols for reconstructed or repaired medial knee injuries focus on protecting the ligaments/grafts, managing swelling, reactivating the quadriceps, and establishing range of motion. A safe range of motion ("safe zone") should be measured by the surgeon intraoperatively and relayed to ...
Physical therapy is often prescribed as a nonsurgical treatment of a tear, in which functional rehabilitation and range of motion exercises that focus primarily on the hips, gluteal muscles, and quadriceps are used to strengthen the muscles surrounding the knee. During the recovery phase, heat and ice are often applied as pain managers before ...
Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing with Sensory Testing (FEESST), is essentially a Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) procedure with a formal sensory test (also known as laryngopharyngeal sensory testing) protocol included used to elicit the Laryngeal Adductor Reflex (LAR) directly using air pulses or direct touch with an endoscope.
The semitendinosus is an accessory hamstring (the primary hamstrings are left intact), and the gracilis is not a hamstring, but an accessory adductor (the primary adductors are left intact as well). The two tendons are commonly combined and referred to as a four-strand hamstring graft, made by a long piece (about 25 cm) removed from each tendon.
In fact, many components of the protocol have since been shown to impair or delay healing by inhibiting inflammation. [2] [3] [7] Early rehabilitation is now the recommendation to promote healing. [3] [8] Ice, compression, and elevation may have roles in decreasing swelling and pain, but have not shown to help with healing an injury. [2] [7] [9]

Lillard sat out a loss at Oklahoma City on Friday due to the injury. He returned two days later, but shot just 2 of 14 from the floor when the Bucks ended the regular season with a loss at Orlando.
Arytenoid adduction with or without medialization thyroplasty significantly improves quality of life for patients with vocal cord paralysis. Subjective outcome measures of voice quality include the Grade, Roughness, Breathiness, Asthenia, Strain (GBRAS) voice scale, Voice Handicap Index, and closure of the glottic gap.
