I have read the Course Syllabus and the Student Policy for Proctored Exam in its entirety and understand what is expected of me. I acknowledge that there is a no-late work policy, unless I am returning from an emergency leave of absence (ELOA).I understand that I must adhere to all rules while using HonorLock, including conducting a thorough room scan for each assessment. If I violate any of these rules, I will receive a zero for that assessment.Additionally, I am required to use a side camera for all assessments in HonorLock going forward.

A 17-year-old female is referred to PT with a history of bilateral knee pain (R>L). She is very active within the school year participating in 3 sports throughout the year. She has noticed her pain is worse during track season (long-distance runner). Her pain is localized under the knee cap. She denies a history of swelling or mechanism of injury, but states that her pain is gradually worsening over the last couple months.  Which diagnosis is most likely occurring with this patient?

A physical therapist is attempting to discern between a localized knee issue or potential for referred pain. The patient’s knee pain is at the medial aspect of the knee that refers just 2 inches down into the lower medial aspect of the leg. The patient will describe occasional pins and needles in this area in addition to pain. If a lumbar radiculopathy was truly present, what aspect of the neurological examination would fit this case given the likely spinal vertebral level?

Case Study: A 68-year-old female presents to a physical therapy clinic with localized left-sided neck pain and stiffness, without any symptoms radiating into her upper extremities. She reports generalized mobility limitations, difficulty looking up to reach dishes from a cupboard, and morning stiffness that takes several hours to subside. The physical therapist (PT) attempts to assess the patient’s Atlanto-axial (AA) motion. What position should the PT position the patient to do so?

A physical therapist evaluates a patient with L 4th and 5th finger and medial forearm numbness and tingling/pain. The PT examines the cervical spine, arm/forearm, and hand. Which area of entrapment would not have the potential to produce this patient’s symptoms?

Which sign/symptom would most likely be positive in a patient that had true cervical myelopathy?

Case Study: A 36-year-old female presents with a primary complaint of right-sided neck and shoulder pain. Her symptoms worsened over the weekend following a fall during a pick-up basketball game. She denies numbness or tingling but notes that her neck and shoulder pain seem interconnected. She finds relief when her affected arm and shoulder are supported above her head (see photo). The treating physical therapist uses an outcome measure to track progress with this patient over time. He decides to make a goal using the Minimal Detectable Change (MDC) of the outcome measure for 8 weeks. What outcome measure is most likely to be utilized and what is the MDC that would demonstrate a true positive change over time?

A physical therapist performs the following special test below for the shoulder following an anterior shoulder dislocation. Based on the arthrokinematics of the joint, why would this test be positive?

A physical therapist (PT) is performing a Craig’s Test on a young child. The PT notes that the lower extremity rests at 10 degrees of hip internal rotation when the greater trochanter parallel to the ground. How would this PT document the test in their documentation system?
