Total Points: 30

First Section: worth 5 points

• Stick Figures be able to:– Take a listing – produce lateral

and A-P stick figures (3 of these).– Take a lateral and A-P stick

figure – produce level and listing (2 of these).

– See next 2 slides for examples.

First Section: example

Given the Listing

Draw the Lateral stick figure (or write visual

indicator, include levels as needed)

Draw the A-P stick figure

2nd Section: Multiple Choiceworth 10 points

•10 Multiple choice questions, 1 point each

•1 question on Cartesian Co-ordinate System

2nd Section: Multiple Choice

•Other questions will cover:–Given patient evaluation findings decide what level/ listing to adjust.

2nd Section: Multiple Choice

•Other questions will cover:–Given palpation findings:

•What seen on x-ray (so know the names of the lines)

•What level and listing are described

2nd Section: Multiple Choice

•Other questions will cover:–Given spinography findings:

•What palpation findings would correlate with them

•What level and listing are described

2nd Section: Multiple Choice

•Other questions will cover:–Given a level & listing:

•What palpation findings would correlate with them

•What spinography findings would correlate with them

2nd Section: Multiple Choice

•Other questions will cover:– Patient evaluation findings, ie:•Range of Motion (know normals to recognize abnormals)

•Reflexes – chord levels involved (abnormal vs. normal findings)

2nd Section: Multiple Choice

•Other questions will cover:– Patient evaluation findings, ie:•Orthopedic tests

–Positives & indications

2nd Section: Multiple Choice

•Derifield Leg Check for Cervical Spine:–Right Cervical Syndrome (RCS)–Left Cervical Syndrome (LCS)–Bilateral Cervical Syndrome (BCS)

–No Cervical Syndrome (NCS)

2nd Section: Multiple Choice

•Derifield Leg Check for Cervical Spine:–What the finding is and how it relates to the position of the vertebra that finding is at.

3rd Section : worth 5 points

•Lateral Cervical X-ray–Will be given size of film to know how far to extend lines.

–Put lines on (in the appropriate places.

3rd Section:

• Lateral Cervical X-ray– Interpretation of lines cont’d.

•Place listing on line it belongs to and to the correct side of that line, ie. AS or AI C1 on APL to the anterior

– C2 to 7 only list if crossing (follow rules for multiple levels crossing)

4th Section: worth 5 points

•A-POM & A-P Cervical X-ray–Put lines on (on the appropriate segments) only those we’re interested in continuing the listing from the Lateral film.

4th Section :

•A-POM & A-P Cervical X-ray–For example from Lateral:

•If Occ = PS, C1 = AI, C5 = P•Put lines on Occiput, C1, C2, C5, and C6 to get rest of listings

4th Section :

•A-POM & A-P Cervical X-ray–Write the listing for that segment on the side of laterality on the line for the segment (listing line).

5th Section: worth 5 points

•Lateral & A-P Thoracic X-ray–Lateral Thoracic: Given a level to look at, you determine one visual indicator of posteriority present at that level.

5th Section :

•Lateral & A-P Thoracic X-ray–A-P Thoracic:

•Take the level given for the Lateral Thoracic visual indicator: you complete the analysis for that segment (listing line, base line, spinous laterality).

5th Section :

•Lateral & A-P Thoracic X-ray–A-P Thoracic cont’d:

•Write the listing for the segment concerned on the LL and on the side of spinous laterality.

Recommendations:

• Spend no more than 5 minutes for each of the sections 1, 3-5 (total 20 minutes)

• Use rest of time to go over the multiple choice questions

Recommendations:

• Check WEBSITE for questions/answers for the weeks covering the material dealing for the first exam

• Remember no set up material on the exam (everything from day one to the 1st practical is fair game)
