Four Principles of Functional Rehabilitation
Type of injury

Method of presentation

How to rehabilitate

Knowledge of injury type and presentation method determine what needs to be rehabilitated
Framework for Functional Rehabilitation
Due to a specific event

Time, place, mechanism of injury usually clear

Single event resulting in previously normal (?) anatomical structures becoming suddenly and distinctly abnormal after injury
Macrotrauma
Chronic, repetitive injuries

Usually a process resulting from failure of homeostasis of cellular mechanisms and tissue constituents to maintain integrity of structures subjected to demands of physical activity over time

Fairly long process

Clinically evident adaptive changes in flexibility, balance, strength, biomechanics, performance occur with continued sports participation
Microtrauma
Injury episode easily recalled

Activity halted or curtailed
Acute
Usually microtauma with gradual symptom onset

Pain may be widespread

Activity still ongoing although at reduced performance level
Chronic
Acute exacerbation of chronic injury Previous injury apparently successfully treated

Occurs with return to activity

History of previous injury and rehab plan give clues to remaining underlying deficits (inflexibilities, strength deficits/imbalances, biomechanical faults
Subclinical Adaptations to Athletic Activity Maladaptations to training

Asymptomatic strength, flexibility, biomechanical changes that predispose to future injury

Need to screen for kinetic chain dysfunction prior to implementing S&C program
Clinical alteration Clinical symptom complex requires what?
Anatomic alteration Tissue injury complex and tissue overload requires what?
Physiologic and mechanical alteration Functional biomechanical deficit requires what?
Clinical Alteration This frequently occurs in presence of subclinical alterations

May be present with acute injury or may be produced as a result of acute injury

Clinical symptom index: Pain, swelling, decreased ROM
Pain, Swelling, Decreased ROM Clinical Symptoms Index
Tissue Injury Complex Actual tissue that has been damaged
Tissue Overload Complex Tissues that have been stress/overloaded

Contribute to or exacerbate injury
Functional Biomechanical Deficit Complex Alterations in activity performance mechanics

Caused by abnormalities in strength/muscle imbalance, flexibility
Substitute motions

Altered recruitment patterns

Synergistic dominance
Subclinical Maladaption Complex
Emphasis on muscle endurance, motor control perfection, maintenance of spine stability during ADLs Training for health vs for performance
Must reduce source the exacerbates tissue overload

Exercise enhances prevention and rehabilitation outcomes
Integration of prevention and rehabilitation strategies
Return of function and reduction of pain can be slow

Patients have good and bad days during recondition process
Continuous improvement in function/pain reduction
Documenting back pain/stiffness essential in identifying link with mechanical stresses ADL Journal
Initiate reconditioning process with limited number of exercise

Add new exercises one at a time after positive slope is established

Add/Remove exercises based on positive slope changes
Ensuring the progressive positive slope
Must change patterns that result in tissue loading in excess of threshold Patient lifestyle changes
