Anatomical Kinesiology Review (Hip, Knee, Ankle and Foot)
True or False: Medial collateral ligament sprains are often associated with valgus stresses and may also compromise the lateral meniscus
False
True or False: The gastrocnemius receives its innervation from the tibial division of the posterior femoral nerve
False
True or False: The medial and lateral hamstrings produce the same agonistic action for tibial rotation
False
The hamstrings are responsible for what action(s)?
Knee flexion and hip extension
Which of the following muscle(s) utilize the malleoli as pulleys? - Extensor digitorum longus - Extensor hallucis longus - Tibialis anterior - All of the above - None of the above
None of the above
Which of the following is not a part of the unhappy triad?
PCL - posterior cruciate ligament
Which of the following muscles have insecurities on the base of the 5th metatarsal?
Peroneus brevis and peroneus tertius
Which of the following is not considered a plantarflexion?
Peroneus tertius
Which of the following does not describe an arch pattern?
Pes tarsoplanus
Compartment syndrome occurs most often in which compartment?
The anterior compartment
Which of the following bones bares most of the weight in the lower leg?
Tibia
What is considered plantarflexion?
Tibialis posterior, flexor digitorum longus, and the soleus
True or False: A high ankle sprain is the result of a forced dorsiflexion plus eversion mechanism
True
True or False: A large Q-angle may predispose to higher risk of injury
True
True or False: A positive windless effect of a properly functioning plantar fascia, and results in an increased arch.
True
True or False: During normal walking, the majority of the gait cycle is spent in the stance phase
True
True or False: During the stance phase of gait, supination occurs during heel strike and toe-off
True
True or False: The patella serves as a pulley by improving the angle of pull with the result being a greater mechanical advantage for the quadriceps during knee extension
True
Which of the following is not a key bony landmark of the knee? - Gerdys tubercle - Fibial tuberosity - Tibial tuberosity - Medial and lateral femoral condyles
fibial tuberosity
Which of the following is true regarding the lateral collateral ligament?
maintains lateral stability by resting varus forces
What is part of the unhappy triad?
medial meniscus, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL)
Which of the following is considered an agonist during knee extension?
rectus femoris
