Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A) : Upper back postural correction exercises and scapular stabilization exercises are readily prescribed for the management of secondary shoulder impingement. Reason (R) : Glenohumeral instability can also lead to the development of impingement syndrome at shoulder. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Assertion (A) states that upper back postural correction exercises and scapular stabilization exercises are commonly prescribed for managing secondary shoulder impingement. This is correct. Poor posture (like rounded shoulders) and inadequate control of the shoulder blade (scapula) can alter the mechanics of the shoulder joint, leading to pinching of soft tissues in the subacromial space, a condition known as secondary impingement. Therefore, exercises targeting posture and scapular stability are fundamental in treatment.
Reason (R) suggests that glenohumeral instability can contribute to the development of impingement syndrome in the shoulder. This statement is also correct. Instability means the main shoulder joint (glenohumeral joint) is abnormally mobile. This excessive movement can cause the humeral head to shift abnormally during arm motion, leading to irritation and impingement of the surrounding structures.
While both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are factually correct statements regarding shoulder impingement, Reason (R) does not serve as the direct explanation for Assertion (A).
Glenohumeral instability is a distinct condition that can cause impingement, often requiring specific management focused on joint stability. The exercises mentioned in (A) address issues of alignment and muscle control, which are different primary targets than the joint stability addressed by treating instability (R). Therefore, (R) explains a cause of impingement but not specifically why exercises for posture and scapular stabilization are prescribed for secondary impingement.
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct statements. However, Reason (R) does not correctly explain Assertion (A) because they address different aspects and causes of shoulder impingement.
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Application of ice can reduce pain sensation.
Reason (R) : The impulses which arrive through the relatively large diameter nerves block the pain impulses via the pain gate mechanism.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Strength training can be given during pregnancy.
Reason (R) : Strength training of pregnant females can have detrimental effects on the developing fetus.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : When using the Karvonen's formula, the exercise heart rate is higher than when using the maximum heart rate alone for a 40 years old male having a resting heart rate of 80 bpm.
Reason (R) : Karvonen's formula is based on the heart rate reserve which is the difference b/w the maximum heart rate and the exercise heart rate.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : The effect-size is the between group difference divided by a pooled version of the standard deviations of the groups being compared.
Reason (R) : Large between group differences and large within group variability result in large effects sizes.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : A medical diagnosis is different from a physical therapy diagnosis.
Reason (R) : The medical diagnosis is identified at the cellular level while a physical therapy diagnosis identify the impact of a condition on function at the level of the system and at the level of a whole person.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
