1. Explain what Neumann means by "there are no primary internal rotators" know specifically how/why some external rotators (which ones?) can actually switch roles to become internal rotators (pg 507-508).

"ideal" primary internal rotator muscle would be oriented in the horizontal plane during standing, BUT From the anatomic position there are no primary internal rotators because no muscle is oriented even close to the horizontal plane. Active Internal Rotation Torque Increases with hip flexion approaching 90 = reorients the lines of force of these muscles from nearly parallel to nearly perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of rotation of the femur. maximal-effort internal rotation torque in healthy persons is 35-55% greater with the hip flexed to about 90 degrees as compared to when it is extended Some ER ex. posterior fibers of the gluteus medius, piriformis, anterior (superior) fibers of the gluteus maximus, and posterior fibers of the gluteus minimus, = switch actions = IR @ hip flexion of 60+

Lateral (Fibular) Collateral (LCL) name attachments what ligaments cross over it?

intercondylar groove about what angle/depth why is this important

120 - 150° more shallow = less stability / control for patella

Amount of Hip Forces during Walking (maybe more than we need to know specifically) How are these changes in force mitigated within the joint?

13% of body weight = midswing phase 300% + of body weight = midstance phase. stance phase = when forces are the greatest = the lunate surface deforms and the acetabular notch widens slightly, increasing contact area that reduces peak pressure This natural damping mechanism represents yet another design that keeps the stress on the subchondral bone within physiologically tolerable levels.

AI too long: Hamstrings [starting position]- performing initial range of knee flexion with hip flexed to 90° or more PI: Prior to the exercise, in trying to get into the starting position, knee extension ROM may be limited with hip in 90° flexion (or more) due to passive tension (stretch) in the hamstrings.

Cuboid articulates with

4th + 5th Metatarsal + Calcaneous Lateral column of the foot

Metatarsophalangeal joints (MTPs) compare the flexion/extension of these joints to your fingers

= 5 biaxial condyloid joints. - flexion/extension + abduction/adduction. More extension than flexion compared to fingers, 14.52 shows the importance of ample extension range of motion at the metatarsophalangeal joints. plantar flexor muscles use joints to increase internal moment arm, + full extension of these joints pulls the plantar fascia taut via the windlass effect = helps the intrinsic muscles support the medial longitudinal arch + maintain a rigid forefoot = allowing the foot to accept the load of body weight.

Tarsometatarsal joints

= 5 nonaxial, plane synovial joints; = function is primarily a continuation of mid-tarsal joint.

Seated Calf Raise (2 leg) AI vs. PI

AI too short: Gastrocnemius [starting position] - performing end-range plantarflexion with knee flexed 90° or more PI: Uncommon Dorsiflexion ROM may be limited with knee extended due to passive tension (stretch) in the soleus ms (not a 2 joint muscle). How could this be changed to become a stretching technique?

1 Leg Hip Extension (Machine)

AI too short: Hamstrings [up phase] - performing end-range hip extension with knee flexed 90° or more PI: Hip extension ROM may be limited with the knee flexed 90° of more due to passive tension (stretch) in the rectus femoris. How could this be changed to become a stretching technique?

Single Leg Standing Leg Curl AI vs. PI

AI too short: Hamstrings [up phase] - performing end-range knee flexion with the hip near or in extension (or if extending the hip further). PI: Knee flexion ROM may be limited with hip at 0° due to passive tension (stretch) in the rectus femoris.

Intracapsular Ligaments of the Knee What are they Tests for each

ACL + PCL intracapsular but extrasynovial

Treatment of ACL Tears what % get surgery what is prehab type of reconstruction (in terms of tissue used) - pros and cons of each

ACL does not heal ○ 1/3 avoid sx ○ 1/3 aggravate later ○ 1/3 surgery (when it interferes w/life/happiness) Surgical considerations Prehab - hard to operate on "hot" joint ○ Eliminate effusion ○ Restore full ROM ○ Walk without limp Reconstruction ● Autograft: use of own tissue ● Allograft: use of someone else's tissue Autograft ● Patellar tendon (most common) vs hamstring Actually - two interventions (one sx) ○ Harvest tissue ○ Reconstruct ACL Allograft ● Eliminates harvest of tissue ● Auto-immune response? ○ Weaken graft? Ligamentization process ● Graft is avascular, tissue begins to die (strongest when first put in) ● Revascularization occurs at 5-6 weeks - weakens graft ● Appropriate stress result in fibroblastic activity ○ Ligamentization Graft strengthens

Unhappy Triad of Knee

ACL, MCL, medial meniscus

ACL from / to limits

ACL: Limits: OKC= anterior movement of tibia on femur (hyperextension) CKC = posterior movement of femur on tibia M-L orientation = IR of tibia / ER of femur Intracapsular but Extrasynovial Compensated by Hamstring - need to strengthen prior to surgery + need to AVOID extension (quads) just after surgery because this wants to create anterior tibial translation (ie stresses ACL)

Strongest internal rotators of the hip (as per Forbush)

All of the hamstring ms?How could this be changed to become a stretching technique?

Where is there a weakness in the Joint Capsule of the Hip what makes up for this weakness

ANTERIORLY between pubofemoral + iliofemoral ligaments = point of iliopectineal bursa = is reinforced by iliopsoas tendon

Major Causes of Hip Replacements 2 categories + subcategories

Arthritis (OA, RA or Traumatic A) + Congenital Irregularities / Fx

Jones Fracture

Avulsion fracture due to the fibularis brevis pulling away the bone of the base of the 5th metatarsal

Explain how the axis of motion at the knee migrates during flexion / extension

Axis migrates with femoral condyles. The path of AOR is influenced by the eccentric curvature of the condyles. Biomechanically, the migrating axis alters length of the internal moment arm of the flexor and extensor mm. important when administering orthotics - have to measure at the average otherwise it will rub the skin

Ligaments / Tendons : Anterior Knee (3)

Quadriceps (patellar) tendon - anterior support Iliotibial Band - anterolateral support Pes Anserine tendons - medial support

Types of Fixation used in Total Hip (THR) (3) advantages / disadvantages of each

Bone Cement - can WB immediately after surgery, used in older pts - doesnt last as long as press fit / may loosen over time Press-Fit - immediately unstable = NWB = younger pts - lasts longer than cement - special porous coating = allows bone to grow into implant combo - may also be used

Bone Preservation in Total Hip Replacement (THR) why is this important what happens if this is not accomplished

Bone needs stimulation to stay healthy. = don't let the implant do all the work implant shields the bone from stress ("stress-shielding"), bone = resorbed/broken down by the body = bone loss vs. if the bone is required to take on too much stress, abnormal growth = "adaptive remodeling." Bone Loss (Osteolysis) - eating away of bone = immune response to loose bodies caused by rubbing of implants causing bone degradation overtime Many orthopedic surgeons identify osteolysis as the number one cause of hip implant failure. New Ceramic Components help hope to reduce this

Sciatic Nerve Injuries causes muscles affected movements affected compensations

Can be injured by: - fractures of pelvis - posterior dislocations of hip joint - most frequently injured by badly placed intramuscular injections (should inject into superolateral quadrant of buttock). Motor: the hamstring muscles would be paralyzed but weak flexion of knee would be possible via sartorius (femoral nerve) and gracilis (obturator nerve). All muscles inferior to the knee would be paralyzed. - The weight of foot causes a foot drop = plantar flexion Sensory: loss of sensation below knee except for medial band supplied by saphenous nerve (branch of femoral).

Gluteus Min/Medius Injury causes signs + symptoms exam

Cause •Similar to rotator cuff pathology (RC of the Hip) Progression from tendonitis and edema to progressive tendon thickening, partial tearing and ultimately complete rupture at gluteal insertion Signs and Symptoms Dull lateral hip pain Focal tenderness at gluteal insertion (right above Troch) •Trendelenberg gait Exam •Weak hip abduction •Pain with passive and resisted ER with hip @ 90° flexion •Pain with single-leg stance >30 seconds Treatment 1. Decrease inflammation •Rest - avoid aggravating activities •Modalities •Light exercise (IM's/AROM) for pumping effect 2. Correct muscle imbalances which caused initial problem 3. Proceed thru functional progression as able

Loose Bodies in the Hip causes signs + symptoms treatment

Causes •Osteochondritis dessicans, avascular necrosis, degenerative osteoarthritis, synovial chondromatosis, pigmented villonodular synovitis •Traumatic hip dislocations •Chondral injury following lower-energy trauma Signs & Symptoms Similar to labral pathology Catching, locking, clicking, or giving way Anterior groin pain Hip stiffness Occasionally have hx of dislocation or low-energy trauma Exam •Limited ROM •Catching and grinding Imaging •Plain radiographs best for ossified or osteochondral loose bodies (chondral wont show up well on plain radiographs) •MRI or MRA best or cartilaginous loose bodies Treatment •Arthroscopy •Post-op rehab for gait retraining and strengthening if appropriate and when too long incapacitated or limited

Cemented vs. Non-cemented THA

Cemented Hips - FWB + walk w/o support immediately = faster rehab ... critical for older pts but dont last as long and are susceptible to loosening over time, especially with individuals who are very active - may also result in debris causing osteolysis Cementless Fixation - not immediately secure = NWB while bone begins to form through implant - should last longer esp. in active individuals = better for younger pts

14.2 - clinical assessment of subtalar joint

Clinicians often measure subtalar joint motion solely by the amount of inversion and eversion of the calcaneus Neutral subtalar joint is used for evaluating a foot before issuing of an orthodonic device Created by placing calcaneus in position that allows both lateral and medial sides of talus to be equally exposed for palpation in the mortise

Mortons Neuroma

Describe Types of Joint found in Knee

Compound Joint = 3 articulations within one joint cavity: 2 Condyloid joints : between each condyle of the femur + corresponding condyle of Tibia (Each of the condyloid joints is partially divided by a fibrocartilagenous meniscus between the articular condyles) 1 modified plane synovial joint = between patella + femur

Post Surgical Rehab for Hip Replacements concerns to watch out for - anterior vs. posterior approach - cemented vs. cementless how to successfully rehab

Concerns for Rehabilitation ● Must protect the hip from dislocation Posterior approach ○ Minimize adduction (neutral) ○ Minimize internal rotation (neutral) ○ Minimize excessive flexion (>100 degrees) Cement Rehabilitation Concerns ● Cementless hips: ○ Protected weight-bearing early ○ Use of walker for the first few weeks ○ Limited ROM for the first few weeks ● Cemented hips: ○ Immediate weight-bearing ○ Limitations in the range from incision early Success through Rehabilitation! AVOID (until healed) Fatigue - repetitive heavy lifting (fatigue) - excessive stair climbing (fatigue) Maintaining appropriate weight = Staying healthy and active Avoiding "impact loading" sports jogging, downhill skiing, and high impact aerobics Avoiding quick stop-start, twisting or impact stresses Heavy lifting + bending over Kneeling - leads to adaptive hip rotation low seating surfaces and chairs = excessive flexion

Compare Deltoid Ligaments vs. Lateral Ankle Ligaments

Deltoid = more elastic but also stronger - easier to stretch but harder to tear

Eversion Injuries

Deltoid Ligament Sprains / Tears Forces acting to open medial side of ankle may actually fracture off (avulse) the tibial malleolus before the deltoid ligament tears ... POTTs fracture BECAUSE DELTOID LIGAMENTS ARE SO STRONG

Medial Ligaments of the Ankle name them what do they support what do they prevent most injured?

Deltoid Ligaments Support Medial Side of Talocrural 1 = anterior tibiotalor = head of talus 2 = tibionavicular = navi. tuberosity 3 = tibiocalcaneal = sustenaculum tali 4 = posterior tibiotalor = posterior medial talor tuberosity NOTE : naming = Tibo________ LIMIT EVERSION

Shape of the talus why is this important

Dome is wider anteriorly than posterior = locks in during dorsiflexion

Talocrural Joint Weight-Bearing Surface

Distal Tibia

Supination (CKC) describe position at each segment of foot

Equinus Foot = high arch Rigid Foot Osteoarthritic at Mid-foot - Bc is locked in without any way to spread out into pronation Increased Inclination of the MTP's Hammer Toes = much more common in supinated foot

Potts Fracture occurs due to which type of roll

Eversion

Describe motion of Patella during Knee Flexion / Extension

Extension = superior to groove freely mobile when relaxed 10-20 degrees flexion inferior aspect of medial/ lateral facets touching groove Past 90 degrees flexion = inferior to groove - contact with odd facet & lateral facet

Motor Screening for Leg describe actions / nerve roots at each joint remember trick of 2's reflexes

Extension of knee (L3) Flexion of knee (L5, S1) Dorsiflexion of foot (L4, L5) Plantar flexion of foot (S1, S2) Inversion (L4, L5) Eversion (L5, S1) Great toe extension (L5) Great toe flexion (S1) L4/5 = Patellar S1/S2 = Achilles Each Joint is Moved by 4 Nerve Roots TRICK as per Forbush leg it all starts with L2 Mm that move each joint = 4 nerve roots (see pic) As you move down one joint, you move down one nerve root level Front before back In the ankle it all starts with L4

First MTP Joint why is it important

Extension of this joint is very important for late stance phase of gait

Describe the complex functioning of Mm in the foot Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Mm describe the Mm pairs at the foot and their stabilizing Mm

Extrinsic Mm gross actions / control of foot intrinsic muscles - fine tune + stabilize quadratus plantae = stabilizes FDL anterior tibialis + posterior tibialis = stabilize the navicular fibularis longus + posterior tibialis = stabilize the transverse arch FHL + posterior tibialis = incline the great toe toward the ground + raise the longitudinal arch

Who tends too have more patellar issues (men or women?) + Why

Females tend to have a slightly greater Genu Valgus = may lead to more patella issues

FAI : Mixed

Femoral Acetabular Impingement malformation of femoral head + neck AND Acetabulum

FAI : Pincer where is the deformity , what does it damage how might you see this via imaging

Femoral Acetabular Impingement malformation of the acetabulum = acetabular over-coverage resulting in impingement of a normal femoral head-neck junction on the acetabular rim seen via crossover sign - acetabulum extends beyond femoral neck line

FAI : CAM where is the deformity , what does it damage how might you see this via imaging

Femoral Acetabular Impingement malformation of the femur @ head + neck causes cartilage + labral wear in acetabulum Increased alpha angle - not pathogenic but suggestive of possible CAM FAI

Femoral Hernias - occur through what "tube" + - what opening - why? more common in men or women?

Femoral Canal occur through femoral canal + pass through saphenous hiatus occurs due to weakening of abdominal wall by the passage of the lymphatics* women

Longest Bone of the Body

Femur

Acetabular Labrum is made of _____________ vascularization / innervation

Fibrocartilage = Poorly Vascularized Acetabular Labrum Fibrocartilage = Poorly Vascularized - limited healing potential Well Innervated with afferent nerves = propriocetermtive feedback and sensation of pain is often involved in hip pathologies such as: - degenerative osteoarthritis - acute trauma, - developmental hip dysplasia - repeated femoral-acetabular impingement

Inferior Tibiofibular Joint type of joint supporting structures common injury

Fibrous Joint from distal fibular (convex) to fibular notch of distal tibia Ligaments: - anterior + posterior tibiofibular ligaments -tibiofibular interosseous membrane (deep to posterior tibiofibular) - very strong - important for maintaining ankle integrity and keeping T+F together High Ankle Sprain

Rehab + Healing times for Hip Fx femoral neck vs. intertrochanteric fx

Full bone healing = 8 to 10 weeks - depending on age and condition Rehabilitation of Fractures ● Femoral Neck Repair ○ Weight-bearing early with partial ○ Limited rotation ○ Limited by pain in activities ● Intertrochanteric Repair ○ Partial to less weight-bearing ○ Neutral position of the limb ○ No pivoting with weight-bearing ○ ROM within limits of incisions Healing Times ● Problem with mortality following hip fractures ● Weight-bearing is the most important element ● Full bone healing within 8 to 10 weeks depending on age and condition ● Strength issues from surgical insult

Closed-Packed Position of Talocrural Joint

Fully Dorsiflexed limited more by muscles KNEE POSITION CAN AFFECT DORSIFLEXION ROM

Closed-Packed Position of Talocrural Joint common end feel

Fully Dorsiflexed = Locks into widest part of Talus generally most limited by Mm (ex Gastroc tightness) ... which can be affected by knee position

Dorsiflexion + Plantarflexion ROM needed - gait - other activities

GAIT - Dorsi = 15 degrees - Plantar = none NEEDED Dorsi = 40 + vball, bball etc Plantar = 50+ ballet , divers ,etc

Preventative Stretching for Ankle Injuries 2 most important 3 others tightness in each causes ____________

Gastroc Soleus -The keystone to the posterior foot and ankle -Tightness can lead to: •Increased pronation or supination •Early heel rise in gait •Increased risk of ankle sprains •Sub-talar laxity Flexor Hallucis Longus -The key support for the medical ankle (along with the PTT) -Supports the sustentaculum tali -Tightness leads to less great toe contact and inability to pre-load before push-off Flexor Digitorum Longus/Brevis, Plantaris -Help to propel -Tightness is same problem in pre-load before push-off -Eccentric pull on heel (could cause tendonitis) Peroneals -Tightness causes an increase in supination -Great ray affected Plantar Fascia -Restricts range of toes in pre-load before push-off

Knee position can affect dorsiflexion ROM, but not plantarflexion. HOW/WHY?

Gastrocs = two joint across knee No two joint mm in anterior compartment

Gluteus Maximus gait

Gluteus Maximus gait you lean back to compensate for the fact that you do not have any gluteus max to keep you in extension due to injury to the Inferior Gluteal N

Trendelenburg gait - which nerve / muscle(s) - which action

Gluteus Medius / Superior Gluteal N = Due to Weak ABDUCTION (gluteus medius , maximus + TFL) Trendelenburg gait: - during the Stance Phase of the gait cycle when one foot is off the ground, the gluteus medius of the the leg that is on the ground contracts to prevent the opposite hip from dropping. When the superior gluteal nerve (or gluteus medius directly) is injuried this does not occur causing the opposite hip to drop = Hip Drop and the close hip to raise up (relative to the dropping hip) Due to weak ABDUCTION When weak side is planted on the ground, opposite side drops and weak side "raises" IF weakness on both sides = = Waddling Gait = drop on both sides

Ankle Sprain Grading System (From Class) include specific tests

Grade 1 ● Slight/no swelling ● Slight point tenderness ● No loss of function ● Ant. Drawer - neg ● Talor tilt - neg Grade 2 ● Moderate swelling ● Possible ecchymosis (discoloration of the skin resulting from bleeding underneath--bruising) ● Moderate point tenderness ● Loss of function ● Ant. Drawer - pos ● Talor tilt - neg Grade 3 ● Severe swelling ● Ecchymosis ● Major loss of function ● Ant. Drawer - pos ● Talor rock - pos

Someone with limited (<10º) dorsiflexion will demonstrate abnormal gait at which phase?

Heel OFF

Partial Hip : Hemi-Resurfacing Hip Arthroplasty

Hemi-Resurfacing Hip Arthroplasty Avascular necrosis - early stage only affect femoral head -> ball collapses ○ Resulting in a loss of roundness and this causes pain round metal "cap" on the ball + pts own socket Advantages - does not take away much bone (more options available for subsequent re-operations), does not last as long as total hip ○ BUT remember that patients with this stage of avascular necrosis are often quite young ○ Anywhere from their 20's to 40 or so--and so total hip replacement is not considered an ideal approach for them

Define Hindfoot , Midfoot + Forefoot - which bones / joints are in each

Hindfoot: - Talocrural (ankle) - Subtalor = talus + calc (2 articulations in 2 capsules) - transverse tarsal = talonavicular + calcaneocuboid (dividing line) Midfoot - Intertarsal Joints Forefoot - TMT - MTP - IP

Hyperpronation of the foot due to which motions at Hip , Knee , Rearfoot + Midfoot

Hip - IR , Flexion + ADduction Knee - Increased Genu Valgus Rearfoot - Pronation (eversion) with lowering of medial longitudinal arch Midfoot/Forefoot - Supination (inversion) = compensates for Rear foot

Knee AI/PT Based on Hip Position (flexion / extension)

Hip Flexion - AI too short Rectus Femoris (knee ext) + - PI too long Hamstrings (knee flexion) Hip Extension - AI too short Hamstrings (knee flexion) + - PI too long quads (knee extension) May related to flexibility +/- ability to generate force

Most Common type of bone fx that requires hospitalization in the US

Hip Fx Greatly increases mortality rates in older individuals

Partial Hip : Hip Resurfacing

Hip Resurfacing - socket (acetabulum) replaced - femur is spared BUT "resurfaced" with a hemispherical component via cement + short stem into femoral neck used in younger individuals with avascular necrosis

Additional CC 13.4 : Atypical Movement Combos

Hip flexion + Knee extension or Hip extension + knee flexion physiologic consequences opposite of movements are very different hip + knee ext or hip + knee flexion (describe earlier) the biarticular rectus femoris - shorten a great distance - at relatively high velocity = in order to simultaneously flex hip + extend knee. AI too short biarticular PI due to opposing biarticular Based on the length-tension + force-velocity = rectus femoris is not able to develop maximal knee extensor force. function : Consider the action of kicking a ball. Elastic energy = stored in the stretched rectus femoris by the preparatory movement of combined hip extension and knee flexion. The action of kicking the ball involves a rapid and near full contraction of the rectus femoris to simultaneously flex the hip and extend the knee. goal of this action is to dissipate force in the rectus femoris as quickly as possible. vs. activities such as walking, jogging, or cycling use biarticular muscles in a manner that forces are developed more slowly and in a repetitive or cyclic fashion. In this way, muscles avoid repetitive cycles of storing and immediately releasing relatively large amounts of energy. More moderate levels of active and passive forces are cooperatively shared between muscles, thereby optimizing the metabolic efficiency of the movement.

Hip Fractures how do they occur why do they occur reread types of fx in doc (dont need to memorize)

How Do Hip Fractures Occur? Caused by (or result in?) a FALL in Elderly younger adults = high impact stress - car accidents , football , etc pathogenic fx = tumors , infection , etc

Most common direction of ankle sprain / injury (inversion or eversion?)... WHY ? Most Common Tendon to be sprained

Hyperinversion Plantar Flexion = Inversion (coupled due to axis) - least stable / most mobile position Anterior Talofibular (ATF) - lateral ligaments of talocrural joint

Talus Articulates with

I = Calcaneous A= Naviculum S= Tibia + Fibula

What is something you should do immediately after an ankle sprain to improve outcomes

ICE Quicker the ice application after injury, the better the results

ITB Syndrome cause exam (inc tests) treatment

IT Band Syndrome #2 cause of knee pain in runners (patellofemoral syndrome is #1) Repetitive stress = ITB sliding over lateral femoral epicondyle Clinical picture + Obers + Nobles may have minimal pain at rest but have a lot of pain after activity Clinical management modify intensity / frequency of workouts (ex. over doing it while training for marathon) -> increase distance OR speed OR days/week (one at a time) ITB stretch = difficult -> stretch quads + hamstrings -> Strengthen abd/ER

Club Foot

Idiopathic , neurological disorder, or as part of other congenial defects; Incidence - 1/1000 births; 2X more in boys; > 50% are bilateral; Treatment: Mobilization, stretching, serial casting, clubfoot shoes, and Denis-Browne splint

1st Mm Layer of the foot = Mm + Tendons how do you know it is injured (vs. deeper structures)

If you flex the toes = FDB contracts and there is pain then the issue is FDB not plantar fascia

Hanging on my Ys

Iliofemoral -(Y ligament of Bigalow) = anterior surface of the joint capsule. The ligament is shaped like and inverted "Y". It is triangular, strong, and blends with the capsule. The apex is attached to the anterior inferior iliac spine. Distally it divides into 2 bands: 1) to lower part of intertrochanteric line, 2) to upper part of intertrochanteric line; between the 2 bands the capsule is thinner. Limits hip extension and abduction = allows you to lean back on you leg even

Strongest / Stiffest of Hip Joint Ligaments attachments limits ___________ WHY is this important

Iliofemoral Ligament (Y Ligament) = Hanging on my Ys. - someone without function in their legs can lean against these tendons Attachments: 1) AIIS 2) Intertrochanteric line Limits: 1) Hip Extension = "spiral motion" 2) Abduction

Hanging on My Y's explain this concept Which Ligament What motions would fully stretch this ligament

Iliofemoral Ligament (Y Ligament) hip extension = stretches iliofemoral + anterior capsule When a person stands with the hip fully extended, the anterior surface of the femoral head presses firmly against the iliofemoral ligament and superimposed iliopsoas muscle. From a position of standing, passive tension in these structures forms an important stabilizing force that resists further hip extension. (read description under picture) A person with paraplegia may rely on the passive tension in an elongated and taut iliofemoral ligament to assist with standing = Hanging on my Ys

Arthrology of the Hip : - 3 main ligaments - what does each limit - when is each the tightest

Iliofemoral/Y-Ligament: ilium to femur, tightens in hip extension -->Hanging on my Ys Pubofemoral: pubis to femur tightens in hip extension and abduction Ischiofemoral: ischium to femur tightens in hip extension and external rotation the joint position(s) in which the various ligaments of the hip become the tightest? See above, tightening indicates limiting those movements as well 🡪ALL = tight in extension= limits extension

Transverse /Midtarsal Joint = Compensates forefoot in reaction to position of the hind foot explain Read text: Special Focus 14-3 & 14-5; Figures 14-32 & 14-33; pgs 590-599 .

In WB Postion (ie during loading response & midstance) pronation at hindfoot = absorption of forces. - If pronation continued distally through the rest of the foot, the lateral border of the foot would tend to lift from the ground = decreased stability = midtarsal joint =movement of the midfoot/ forefoot in the opposite direction of talus and calcaneus. = compensatory supination hindfoot = absorbs forces of the ground + rotation of the lower limb via pronation, + mid-tarsal joint maintains normal weight-bearing forces on the forefoot via supination,. = maintain appropriate contact of the forefoot ... even beyond compensatory movement, if the demands of uneven terrain require it. Pronation of Hindfoot = "Unlocks" Midfoot/Forefoot = allowing for this compsenatory supination ... once hindfoot starts to supinate = limits supination of midtarsal joint hindfoot supination occurs when foot is required to serve as a rigid lever (last half of stance phase & at initial contact). hindfoot supinates forefoot/midfoot = pronates = maintians stability + visa versa

Benefits of Active Gait

Increased caloric expenditure and may lead to loss of weight Better loading of knee, hip, and back with less jarring from ground reaction in all areas More "shapely" legs??? Faster gait Less eccentric load and less likely to have tendonitis or fasciitis problems Less forces on central ligaments of foot Painful foot population improve 2-4 weeks faster with active gait in program than without active gait in program

Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) From / To Function compensated by which muscles

Inferior : anterior intercondylar area on tibial plateau - blends w/ anterior extremity of lateral meniscus -passes superior, posterior and lateral to posterior Superior : medial surface of lateral condyle of femur . Function: Limits : - hyperextension - anterior movement of tibia with respect to femur - posterior movement of femur with respect to tibia - medial rotation of tibia ?????????? compensated by hamstrings

Gerdys Tubercle

Insertion: IT band

Tibial Torsion Abnormalities relate to femoral torsion

Internal torsion (potentially toed-in) vs. excessive external torsion (potentially toed-out) can be caused by excessive anteversion / retroversion of femur (see pic) .... Tibia turns in opposite direction

Midfoot Joints what are they function

Intertarsal joints : navicular, cuboid, & cuneiforms gliding movements = allow the forefoot to react to position/movement of the hindfoot.

Describe Knee Joint Stability

Intrinsically unstable arrangement. body weight is supported apposed ends of two long bones = No specific joint socket (ex acetabulum) However joint is stabilized by: - 2-3 fold expansion of weight bearing surfaces of the femur and tibia (ie broader than shafts of bones) - strong collateral ligaments - aponeurosis and tendons - strong joint capsule - intra-articular ligaments. = Static Stabilizers vs. Muscles = Dynamic Stabilizers

Most common direction of ankle sprain / injury + WHY? Most Common Tendon Injured

Inversion Plantar Flexion = Inversion (coupled due to axis) = least stable / most mobile position Anterior Talofibular (ATF) - lateral ligaments of talocrural joint

Rearfoot OKC more motion in inversion or eversion?

Neurological Irritation vs. Lesion/pathology

Irritation = HOT without loss of function Pathology = loss of function , sensation , etc

Lumbar Spine Radicular Issues which levels refer pain to the hip

L2-L3 refer to the hip joint and the upper thigh area PA compression would be irritated if segment is irritated This patient is without irritation upper lumbar No neural signs and symptoms

Ankle Sprain Rx (4 keys)

Isometrics - early and often Progress to isotonics when isometrics are pain free Ankle taping - does not replace rehab Balance training - Vital !

Compare Knee Extensions vs. Squats in terms of Mm Targeted - based on amount of hypertrophy

Knee Extensions = Targets Rectus Femoris (increases size) vs. Squats = Targets VL + VM Probably because RF = 2 joint mm

Obturator Nerve Injury muscles affected actions affected + compensations

This nerve is not very vulnerable to injury. = gunshot wounds Motor: quadriceps femoris (1 joint - vastus lateralis, vastus Intermedius, vastus medialis longus, and vastus medialis obliquus; 2 joint muscles rectus femoris and sartorius) are paralyzed. Also iliacus and a portion of pectineus. The knee cannot be extended = compensated for using adductors. = One can still flex the hip using the psoas supplied by lumbar plexus . Sensory: loss of knee jerk reflex (L2-L3) / Patellar Tendon + loss of sensation over medial thigh (ant cutaneous branches of femoral), leg, and foot (branches from saphenous nerve), and lateral thigh by LFC.

Common Fibular (Peroneal) Nerve Describe Pathway , Branches , etc

L4-S2 bifurcates from Sciatic N at apex of popliteal fossa. - Gets into the leg by curving around the neck of fibula. *At this point, the nerve is very vulnerable to injury* *Bifurcates between peroneus longus and neck of fibula = superficial + deep peroneal Nn. Superficial peroneal: more lateral - Descends along anterior intermuscular septum = motor branches to peroneus longus and brevis = cutaneous branches to the inferior part of the ant/lat leg; (Lateral Sural Cutaneous) 2/3 the way down leg = turns cutaneous - pierces deep fascia divides into : medial + intermediate dorsal brs. = Distal 1/3 of leg and dorsum of toes except: - web space between toes 1+2 - nail beds (supplied by plantar ns from tibial) - lateral aspect of 5th toe / foot = Femoral?? Deep peroneal N: = more medial - arises between the fibularis longus and the neck of the fibula + enters the anterior compartment - descends lateral to the anterior tibial A (between tibialis anterior and extensor digitorum longus Mm) -supplies: tibialis ant., ext. dig. Longus, extensor hallucis longus, peroneus tertius, and articular branches to the tibiofibular syndesmosis and ankle joint. *Bifurcates at inferior border of the inferior extensor retinaculum* ,Medial br: travels lateral to dorsalis pedis A, divides into 2 dorsal digital branches that supply cutaneous innervation to adjacent sides of 1st and 2nd digits Lateral Br: supplies the extensor digitorum brevis and joints of foot

Leg Length Discrepancy

LLE •Commonly found at odd times in life and living •Obvious structural change in levels and scoliosis from stand to sit Anomalous L5 segment or other low lumbar •(fusion of transverse processes) L6, hemi-vertebra, spina-bifida occulta, etc. Cause deviations which can lead to unequal weight

Possible Causes of Patellofemoral Syndrome

Last 30 degrees = trains VMO + Articularis Genu Pronation - work on excessive pronation forces VMO-adductor relationship - share fibers with adductor = femoral + obturator N Tight posterior muscles - quads have to work harder against tight posterior Mm = will tire out faster causing increasing forces on the patella ... stretch hamstrings Weak gluteus maximus = most proven? Tight IT band - stretch quads + hamstrings

Which is More Mobile : Medial or Lateral Meniscus

Lateral bc no attachement to LCL vs. Medial = attached to MCL

Which is More Mobile : Medial or Lateral Meniscus why might this be?

Lateral bc no attachement to LCL vs. Medial = attached to MCL

Chronic Ankle Instability: Lateral Ankle Sprains and the Potential for Chronic Ankle Instability which muscles help limit this

Lateral ankle or "inversion" sprains = most common injuries in sports Real Time Ankle Sprain Data via EMG - enhanced + prolonged EMG response from tibialis anterior and fibular longus suggests these muscles may naturally help protect the ankle by reflexively decelerating and thus limiting the extremes of damaging movements. activation of the tibialis anterior could limit the extremes of plantar flexion but may contribute to excessive inversion. may cause injury to: - anterior talofibular + calcaneofibular ligaments. (most often) also often involve injury to the deltoid ligament and a compression or shear-based bony bruising between the talus and medial malleolus This concurrent trauma to the medial side of the ankle may explain why some severe "inversion" sprains show swelling on both medial + lateral sides of foot 30% and 70% of ppl who experience an isolated inversion sprain requiring medical intervention will later experience multiple ankle sprains to the same foot, chronic pain, and generalized joint instability greater risk for developing ankle osteoarthritis. Mechanical characteristics : - excessive anterior laxity of the talus relative to the mortise - decreased posterior slid = reduced dorsiflexion Functional characteristics - chronic pain - weakness, - subjective feelings of the ankle "giving away," -reduced balance, - altered sense of ankle joint positon or proprioception. pathogenesis of CAI involves diminished sensation = decreased proprioception = cant generate an effective and timely defensive muscular response to protect the ankle, CAI enter the stance phase with their subtalar joint inverted = delay in activating fibularis mms muscles, or a combination thereof. 76 Both of these It remains uncertain, however, whether the postural unsteadiness or lack of muscular control often associated with CAI is the cause or the effect of repeated ankle sprains. special focus of PT = single-limb support. regarding the effectiveness of proprioception exercises in reducing the recurrence rate of ankle sprains. 144

Tibial Nerve Injury causes muscles affected movements affected compensations

Leaves popliteal fossa deep to gastrocnemius and soleus. The tibial nerve is pretty well protected in popliteal fossa, so it is rarely injured. If cut, all muscles of posterior compartment of leg and sole of foot are paralyzed. In thigh, the tibial N supplies hamstring muscles: semitendinosus, semimembranosus, biceps femoris long head, hamstring portion of adductor magnus. In leg: gastrocnemius, soleus, plantaris, popliteus, tibialis posterior, flexor digitorum longus, flexor hallucis longus, muscles of sole of foot. IF Cut = would lose hamstrings and posterior compartment leg muscles = plantar flexor + some inverters = Foot would remain Dorsiflexed (except weight of foot would allow it to fall when not planted on the ground??? = no ability to push off in step) Sensory: loss of sensation on sole of foot.

Superficial Structures of Popliteal Fossa

Lesser saphenous vein = pierces cural fascia posteriorly to drain into popliteal vein Medial sural cutaneous nerve—A branch of the tibial nerve that runs with the small saphenous vein superficial to gastrocnemius. Lateral sural cutaneous nerve—A branch of the common peroneal nerve. It usually joins with the medial sural nerve to form the sural nerve which supplies skin on posterior midline of the leg.

Ligamentization Process of ACL graft

Ligamentization process ● Graft is avascular, tissue begins to die (strongest when first put in) ● Revascularization occurs at 5-6 weeks - weakens graft ● Appropriate stress result in fibroblastic activity Ligamentization = Graft strengthens

Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI) Rehab

Limit ABd + Rotation 10-21 days + Full Flexion (4 weeks) depends on surgeons and on procedures performed get it moving to start remodeling bone FWB to PWB (4-8 wks MF) Hip immobilizer (limit ABD/Rot 10-21 days CR) Night boots early on to protect rotation (10-21 days) Limited hip flexion (4 weeks) to minimize hip flex tendonitis •12-16 wks return to full competition

Phases of Bone Fracture Healing compare long bones vs. Squamous

Long Bones (heal outside-in) Early repair phase = 0-4 weeks •Intermediate repair phase fibrocart. callous = 4-8 weeks •Late repair phase = minerals deposit 8-12 weeks •Remodeling (up to 6 months) vs. squamous bones = heal similar to skin (inside-out) strong bone = 3-4 weeks

Individual Attachments to Medial Meniscus

MCL Semimembranosis

Maximizing internal torque of Knee EXTENSION what angles / range

Maximal knee extension (internal) torque = @ 45- 70 degrees of knee flexion (ie limited near extremes) ... shape may change based on speed of motion This high-torque potential of the quadriceps within this arc of motion is used during many functional activities that incorporate femoral-on-tibial kinematics, such as ascending a high step, rising from a chair, or holding a partial squat position while participating in sports, such as basketball or speed skating. Note the rapid decline in internal torque potential as the knee angle approaches full extension...range matches external torque produced during femoral on tibial extension (see graph 2 slides previous) There is a general biomechanical match in the internal torque potential of the quadriceps and the external torques applied against the quadriceps during the last approximately 45 to 70 degrees of complete femoral-on-tibial knee extension. This match accounts, in part, for the popularity of "closed-kinematic chain" exercises that focus on applying resistance to the quadriceps while the upright person moves the body through this arc of femoral-on-tibial knee extension.

ACL tear mechanism of injury how to diagnose (tests , etc)

Mechanism of Injury Change of direction (70% of all injuries are non-contact) - Hyperextension - Blow to the knee females > males Audible pop? Rapid/immediate effusion (hemiarthrosis) + Lachman + Pivot shift / jerk (recommend surgery consult)

Which is Larger : Medial or Lateral Meniscus

Medial

tibial plateau compare medial vs. lateral plateau

Medial = 50% larger articular surface (vs. lateral)

Trick to naming the Ligaments of the Ankle

Medial = Deltoid = Tibio ________ vs. Lateral = Talocrural = _________ Fibular

MCL Injuries

Medial Collateral Ligament Injuries ● Valgus and External rotation ○ Ex: push off right leg; cut left ● Often associated with medial meniscus Clinical picture ● Medial knee pain ● Perceived knee instability ● + Valgus test Clinical management ● MCL - excellent healing potential ○ Even grade III (more likely to do surgery but may not because of healing potential) ● Conservative care (non-operative) ● Note: multi-ligamentous injuries ○ Will repair MCL Clinical management points of emphasis ● Avoid full flexion and extension early ○ Puts tension on MCL ● Quad strength ● Abduct/ER strengthening ○ Similar to PFS in class ○ To avoid medial collapse ● Proprioception/balance ● Caution with frontal plane stress (cutting) for up to 6 weeks

Medial vs. Lateral Condyles of Femur compare their locations + explain

Medial Condyle is longer distally Allows the 2 condyles to be at essentially level distally despite the angle of inclination of the femur (pic) If angle of inclination of the hip is normal = slight Genu Valgus (normal) vs. Lateral projects more anteriorly = to prevent lateral movement of patella

Arches of the foot name them are supported primarily by healthy arch vs. flat footed

Medial Longitudinal Lateral Longitudinal Transverse arches supported by the shape & arrangement of the bones, ligaments & thick fascia in the sole of the foot, and muscles. particular importance = plantar fascia. vs. Muscles play a minimal part in maintenance of the shape of a NORMAL foot... little to no mm activity BUT However, a great deal of muscle activity is found in a person with flattened arch.

Medial Side

Which meniscus at the knee is torn most often whay in what position

Medial bc lager and directly connected to MCL forceful rotation on a flexed & WB knee.

Meniscofemoral ligaments what are they function

Meniscofemoral ligaments serve as the only bony attachment of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus = helps stabilize lateral meniscus during movement = anterior or posterior meniscofemoral ligaments, named relative to position to PCL THUS medial meniscus attaches to MCL lateral meniscus attaches meniscofemoral ligaments (not LCL)

Meniscus Injuries at knee mechanism of injury how do you test for this

Meniscus Pathology ● Medial > lateral--medial is more intimate with the MCL Weight bearing with a twist / Change of direction Clinical picture ● Swelling? ● Popping, clicking, joint locking, giving way ● Very sharp pain at joint line Diagnosis Apley's compression/distraction Steinmans McMurray Thessaly <- Best?

Patellofemoral Joint Type of Joint Articulating parts Function Movements Allowed

Modified plane synovial joint Articulation : - posterior surface of patella - + intercondylar region of the femur (trochlear groove) Function : increase the mechanical advantage of the quadriceps - by increases its internal moment arm Actions : Knee Flexion = patella glides inferiorly Knee Extension = patella glides superiorly How : The line of pull of the quadriceps is in line with the femur while the patellar tendon attachment at the tibial tuberosity exerts tension in line with the tibia. Therefore there is a lateral pull on the patella. ??

Distal (only) foot pain common pathologies

Partial Hip : Bipolar Prosthesis

Most common = Bipolar Prosthesis replaces femoral head/neck = metallic shaft and a metallic acetabular cup with an interposed polyethylene liner - acetabulum left intact

Understand how, in a weightbearing (closed chain) position, the transverse tarsal AND tarsometatarsal joints "compensate" the midfoot & forefoot in reaction to position of the hindfoot". (see previous) Does this "compensation" work equally well for pronation AND supination?

NO bc Supination "locks" foot into more stable position to create a solid base of support to push off from

Posterior Cruciate Ligaments (PCL) From / To Function compensated by which muscles

Name stronger and shorter than anterior Inferior: posterior intercondylar area of tibia + medial corner of lateral meniscus - Passes anterior, superior, and medially to lateral surface Superior : medial femoral condyle. Function: Limits: - posterior movement of tibia with respect to femur - anterior movement of femur with respect to tibia - lateral rotation of the tibia compensated by quads

Cruciate Ligaments of the Knee how are they named describe their function are they found within joint capsule +/or synovial membrane?

Named by their attachment sites to tibia. - anterior = attached to tibia anteriorly - posterior = attached to tibia posteriorly Function: ACL limits: - Anterior movement of tibia to femur (or posterior movement of the femur on the tibia) - medial rotation of the Tibia vs. PCL limits: - posterior movement of tibia to femur (or anterior movement of the femur on the tibia) - lateral rotation of Tibia (look at name = prevents opposite movement + look at orientation = prevents opposite rotation) Both ligaments : intracapsular but extrasynovial.

Heel Spurs

Natural + common Manifestation of Stress Through Soft Tissue on a Bone (50% + ppl have them based on xrays) usually found IN tendon, not pushing down on tendon can present identically in painful + nonpainful foot = dont jump to the conclusion that it is the issue •Not usually pushing on tissue ... found IN tendon Not usually the cause of injury / pain ... might be secondary to pain

Meniscus Injuries Operate or Not? If you operate do you remove or repair?? - how might this relate to an athlete

Non-operative ● Increased success rate for degenerative tears ○ No joint locking ○ No ROM restrictions ○ Education ○ Aerobics: pool, bike, walk ○ Strengthening: quad, hip core ○ Proprioception, balance Partial Meniscectomy VS repair LOCATION IS KEY - Outer ⅓ meniscus is vascular - can heal - can do a meniscus repair Partial meniscectomy treatment ● Rehab is symptom limited ● RTP - 1 week ● Increase risk of ACL injury and osteoarthritis? Meniscal repair - Protective period ● Limited WB: 2-6 weeks ● Limited ROM - Full ROM: 4-8 weeks ● Greatest risk of retear is loaded flexion Meniscus repair - Progression ● Mostly symptom limited ● No running before 3-4 months (Based off function, not time) ● RTP - Not before 6 months ○ Removal - 1 week ○ Repair - 6 months

Alpha Angle of Hip what is it normal range increased alpha is a possible sign of ____________

Normal alpha angle is 55 to 60 degrees or less. Increased alpha angles suggest cam impingement alpha angle is not pathognomonic of symptomatic cam impingement, only suggestive.

Explain the screw-home mechanism at the knee (OKC vs. CKC) 3 factors related to biomechanics

OKC Locking knee in full extension = 10 degrees of ER - occurs during last 30 or so degrees of extension maximizes the overall contact area of the adult knee: = increases joint congruence and favors stability ---------------------------------------------------------- CKC When one rises up from a squat position, for example, the knee locks into extension as the femur internally rotates relative to the fixed tibia. Locking is natural motions Unlocking is done via the popliteus mm WHY DOES THIS OCCUR 1. the shape of the medial femoral condyle 2. passive tension in the anterior cruciate ligament, and the slight lateral pull of the quadriceps muscle 3. The most important (or at least obvious) factor is the shape of the medial femoral condyle. - articular surface curves about 30 degrees laterally, as it approaches the trochlear groove. Because the articular surface of the medial condyle extends farther anteriorly than the lateral condyle, the tibia is obliged to "follow" the laterally curved path into full tibial- on-femoral extension. During femoral-on-tibial extension, the femur follows a medially curved path on the tibia. In either case the result is external rotation of the knee at full extension

OKC vs. CKC Hindfoot vs. Midfoot vs. Forefoot generally how do they related to each other

OKC = All go the same direction - supination/pronation = @ TCJ + STJ ... midfoot + forefoot follow CKC = Midfoot / Forefoot (via TTJ) opposite direction as Hindfoot ... foot is loaded via hindfoot pronation = TTJ = supinates back in the other direction to bring medial longitudinal arch back into contact with floor for more even loading (dissipates force)

Some Groups of Individuals who will NOT heal from foot injuries + why

Obese individuals Too much weight and force to control eccentrically Break down is imminent for most of these patients Can't wear orthotics as they break down also Staying off feet complicates the condition Diabetes Slow Healing Times Particularly Problematic in the Foot Necrosis of the Sub-talar Joint Poor Circulation in General Numbness and Poor Feedback to Load and Stresses Smokers poor circulation (similar to diabetes)

Ligaments / Tendons : Posterior Knee name + function

Oblique Popliteal Ligament = expansion of Semimembranosus tendon reinforces posteromedial aspect of capsule Arcuate Popliteal Ligament head of fibula upward and posterior over tendon of popliteus muscle - reinforces posterolateral capsule Hamstring Tendons - posterior on medial & lateral side Heads of the Gastroc posterior on medial & lateral side Diamond of Control

Arthritis in the Hip types (4) + describe each

Osteoarthritis degenerative joint disease (DJD) / "wear-and-tear" localized to the joint itself = NO systemic manifestations causes young adults (below 50) = due to hip malformation in childhood - doesn't show up until later (65+), Weight, Trauma, and/or Overuse Rheumatoid Arthritis autoimmune disease that attacks articular cartilage. may affect any joint in the body = systemic Traumatic Arthritis After a severe fracture of the pelvis or a dislocation of the hip, the joint surface cartilage may suffer damage Causes: ○ Direct trauma ○ Loss of joint congruity ○ Vascular deficiency leading to pain and stiffness = can lead to osteonecrosis conditions Osteonecrosis (not a true arthritis) Avascular necrosis of the femoral head = bone dies + collapses. The process can be quite painful. changes shape of femoral head = creates incongruency + stiffness

#1 Causes of Hip Implant Failure causes how has this changed over time

Osteolysis - eating away of bone = immune response to loose bodies caused by rubbing of implants causing bone degradation overtime Many orthopedic surgeons identify osteolysis as the number one cause of hip implant failure. New Ceramic Components help hope to reduce this

Causes of Weak Bones how to prevent this

Osteoporosis. -> Hip fractures = serious -> treatment for osteoporosis = measured by % of hip fx Vitamin D deficiency = supplement with vit D + calcium = reduce hip fx 43% Homocysteine = toxic 'natural' amino acid = Reduced by B-vitamins Take vitamin B + D = reduce risk of hip fractures!! stress fx , tumors , infections , cancers , etc

Recovering from ACL repair overall considerations for graft healing compare types of grafts when can you return to play

Overall Protect graft early = Avoid resisted quads Full extension ROM early!! lack of full extension ROM = OA ○ Can't manipulate later ○ Mobilize in the first 7-10 days to achieve full extension (anterior glide) Gradually restore strength ○ Knee ○ Hip ○ Core ○ Gastroc ○ Electrical stim ● Proprioception ● Plyometrics (proper landing) ● Functional return Return to play (RTP) ○ Full ROM ○ Strength - 80-85% R-L diff ○ No effusion ● Functional ○ Hop tests (variety exist) ○ Sport/work replication activities = 5-6 months Patellar tendon autograft Mid 1/3 of patellar tendon ○ Patella baja ○ Anterior knee pain ○ Patellar fracture Emphasize patellar mobility slowly strengthen quads Return to play (RTP) - 5-6 months Hamstring graft ● Protect hamstring - 4-6 weeks ● NO hamstring isotonics Allograft = Time frames for progression a bit slower

Which is Stronger ACL or PCL

PCL

PCL from / to limits compensated by which Mm??? + why is this important

PCL: Limits: OKC = posterior movement of tibia on femur CKC = anterior movement of femur on tibia L-M orientation = IR of femur / ER of tibia Intracapsular but Extrasynovial Compensated by Quads

Patellofemoral pain syndrome

PFPS = associated with overuse injuries Exact Cause is Unknown diffuse prepatellar or retropatellar pain wi insidious onse aggravated by squatting or climbing stairs, or sitting with knees flexed for a prolonged period of time Excessive stress typically results from abnormal movement (tracking) and alignment of the patella with the trochlear groove· Complicating these pathomechanics is the strong relationship between the kinematics and kinetics of the patellofemoral joint with those of other joints of the lower extremity, especially in a weight-bearing situation.

Hip Labral Tears causes sign & symptoms exam treatment

PT cannot fix a labral tear , only guide rehab = do not treat if they don't have surgery... you can teach them how to avoid pain/issues but you cannot fix this Causes •Activities requiring repetitive hip flexion or rotation •Hockey, soccer, football, ballet, running •Structural labral abnormalities with pathology in many disorders: •Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) •Perthes' disease •Slipped capital epiphysis PT CANNOT FIX LABRAL TEAR ... only guide rehab Signs & Symptoms •Pain with activity + at end range / some specific range •Typically gradual onset but occasionally after trauma •Injury mechanics: excessive hip External Rotation •Combination of dull and sharp groin pain with movement •Worse with activity, walking, prolonged sitting •Catching or painful clicking in ~50% •Anterior hip pain especially with flexion and IR •Catching primarily with hip rotation Exam •May demonstrate Trendelenberg gait •Positive impingement (90°flex, add, IR) = pain in groin •Improve with intra-articular injection •Radiographs: mild DJD, or associated condition such as developmental dysplasia of hip, FAI, or acetabular ante/retroversion •MRA most reliable study •90% sensitivity 100% specificity treatment = do not treat if they don't have surgery... you can teach them how to avoid pain/issues but you cannot fix this Hip arthroscopy with debridement: •Rehab: (2 to 4 weeks) •Limited ROM early •WBAT •Gait retraining •Post-op strengthening •Functional progression Labral repair: •Repair site must be protected during early healing phase •Protected WBing 2-6 weeks •Avoid extremes of hip flex and ER for 4-6 weeks

Adductor Strain

Painful with PROM ABd (or end ROM flex/extension) Pain with RROM ADd Heals within 6 weeks with rest and reduced end range and resisted activity (already done) Mm scar tissue not until 3 weeks so not end range or weighted motion until at least 3 wks Causes •Repetitive kicking, quick starts or changes in direction •Each muscle with a different function •Must find individual muscle of injury to properly rehab •Pectineus: Flexor, extensor and very eccentric at ends of range •Brevis: Both flexor/extensor and adductor •Long: Pure adductor •Magnus, Gracilis: Many functions Signs and Symptoms •Aching groin •medial thigh pain (only if you can find it and its within Mm) - If its not in Mm may be avulsion fraction •May or may not report specific incident of injury (might be over time) •Pain with activity in earlier phases Chronic dull pain in more progressed cases Treatment Start with rest, ice, gentle ROM (no stretching to begin with) •Isolated strengthening open chain ex's - Bc its less load / easier to control •Closed chain "global" neuromuscular control and core stabilization activities •Increase resistance and intensity •Controlled motion to sport-specific drills

most commonly dislocated joint in females

Patella Almost always laterally

Explain how the patella provides a biomechanical benefit to the quads how quad function is impacted when the patella is removed

Patella = increases internal moment arm for Quads Removal of patella can cause decrease in quadriceps strength/torque of up to 25% or more.

What Stabilizes the Patella on the Knee (not Talking about Tendons / Ligaments ... see below)

Patella Stabilization: 1) the deep trochlear groove of the intercondylar area of the femur 2) the large lateral femoral condyle 3) compressive forces = holds patella close to trochlear groove = due to quadriceps contractions 4) vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) = prevents excessive lateral patellar movement. posterior surface of the patella = thick layer of articular cartilage. - necessary bc compressive forces between patella + femur can be 10 times body weight when the knee is flexed during weight bearing.

What is "the low back of the knee" how do you evaluate for this

Patellofemoral Syndrome Incidence ● 25% of the population ● Female:male = 3:2 ● Crepitus and pain will guide you ● Never "work through" patellofemoral crepitus EVALUATION ● Unique to PFS ● Diffuse ache ● Pain with stairs ● Grinding ● Giving way ○ Clicking--Meniscus ● Swelling [Inhibits strength of VMO--need to get rid of the swelling to strengthen the musculature]

Top 2 Causes of Knee Pain in Runners

Patellofemoral syndrome + ITB syndrome

Upper vs. Lower Limb structure = bones , joints ,etc function stability vs. mobility

Pectoral Girdle = Scapula + Clavicle - only connection to axial = SC joint - incomplete anteriorly (ie only supported by muscles) - very mobile but not very stable - function = put arm/hand in functional positions Pelvic Girdle = Hip bones + Sacrum + Coccyx - very strong connection to axial skeleton at Lumbosacral Joints - very well connected : = acetabulum = deep + holds femur well = strong ligamentous connections - very stable but not as mobile as upper extremity - Function = Locomotion + weight bearing

14.4 - pes cavus - abnormally raised medial longitudinal arch

Pes cavus = abnormally raised medial longitudinal arch + excessive rearfoot varus (inversion) Excessive forefoot valgus (eversion) may also be present, often as a compensation mechanism used to keep the medial forefoot firmly in contact with the ground The chronically raised arch: - reduces the area of contact between plantar surface of the foot + floor - shifts the center of plantar pressure laterally - places metatarsal bones at a greater angle with the ground. = why people with pes cavus may have pain and callous formation over the region of the metatarsal heads · A foot with chronically raised arch cannot optimally absorb the repeated impacts of walking and running Conservative management includes PT, stretching the tight mms, and using orthosis children = ponseti method - a series of 5-7 plantar casts applied to the relatively malleable clubfoot in the infant

Which Ligament Supports the head of the Talus

Plantar calcaneonavicular (spring) ligament

Popliteus mm

Popliteus mm: internal rotator and flexor of the knee joint · As extended knee prepares to flex = popliteus = IR torque = mechanically unlock the knee (OKC = IR on Tibia vs. CKC = ER on Femur) · The popliteus mm oblique line of pull = most favorable leverage of all knee flexor mms for producing axial rotation on an extended knee · "key to the knee" dynamically stabilizes lateral + medial sides of the knee. provides significant resistance to varus load applied to the knee bc of its strong intracapsular tendon stabilizes medial side of the knee by decelerating and limiting excessive external rotation of the knee - via eccentric activation = reduces stress placed on the MCL , ACL + Post Cap. ... few other as well

14.8 - biomechanics of raising up on toes

SECOND CLASS LEVER - axis @ MTP joints = HUGE MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE Performed by the plantar flexor mms · Maximally raising the body requires an interaction of two concurrent internal plantar flexion torques: - one at the talocrural joint + - one at the metatarsophalangeal joints · The plantar flexor mms, represented by the gastric, plantar flex the talocrural joint by rotating the calcaneous and talus within the mortise. · The primary torque used to raise the body, however, occurs through extension across the metatarsophalangeal joints · Acting about a medial-lateral axes of rotation at the toes, the gastric has an internal moment arm that greatly exceeds the external moment arm of BW. Such a large mechanical advantage is rare in the MSK system. Acting as a second-class lever with the pivot point at the metatarsophalangeal joints, the gastric lifts the body using mechanics similar to those of a person lifting a large load with a wheelbarrow

Talonavicular Joint : Ligaments

Spring ligament (Calcaneonavicular) = sustentaculum tali - navicular tuberosity supports head of talus

Describe relative forces for squats where knees pass toes

Squats with knees in front of toes = increase in : - peak ankle dorsiflexion - peak knee flexion angles + net joint movement = Increases patellofemoral joint (PFJ) reaction forces and thus Stress ... likely due to increase in net joint movement @ knee = max quads force

Apophysitis pathologies that commonly occur in the lower extremity : KNEE

Strong activation of the quadriceps muscle during running and jumping activities = too much force on patellar/quad tendon --> tension leads to hypertrophy of the tibial tuberosity, creating an obvious lump, just distal to the patella. = Osgood-Schlatter disease. especially during puberty

Syndesmosis injuries and Tib-Fib ligament injuries: •Caused by distraction of the fibula away from the tibia •If fibula does not break, the ligament of syndesmosis will tear •Any weight bearing or dorsiflexion of the ankle will cause worsening of the pain •Harder to heal as the tissues have lower blood supply and can develop osseous characteristics with healing •Also referred to as HIGH ANKLE SPRAIN

Coverage of Synovial Membrane in the Knee Joint

Synovial membrane: - lines articular capsule and reflects onto bones at edges of articular cartilage. Superiorly : extends to /lines suprapatellar bursa Inferiorly: separated from patellar ligament by fat pad. Posterior : invaginated forward to between femoral + tibial condyles. cruciate ligaments are inside of joint capsule but outside of the synovial cavity

Anterior Compartment of Low Leg Motions Origins + Insertions

TA , EHL, EDL + EDB 1. Dorsiflexion + Inversion = Tib Anterior (medial cuneiform / base of the 1st MT) 2. Extend great toe = distal phalanx = EHL 3. Extend rest of Toes only = extensor expansions - trace back to common bundle between + up = ED ------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Fibularis tertius - common bundle of ED to dorsal 5th MT 5. EHB = under Fib Tert

Importance of 2nd ray of foot

TMT joint is set back from others locked in = gives rigidity

Major vs. Minor Actions of: - Talocrural Joint vs. - Subtalar Joint - explain why this is the case

Talocrural Medial Malleolus = Anterior / Superior to Lateral thus axis = posterior/inferior - anterior/superior Close to Medial - Lateral = mostly Sagittal motions = Dorsiflexion + Plantarflexion but Some angulation towards vertical axis (@ ankle) = frontal plane motions = ABd/ADd (rotated 90 degrees naturally) --------------------------------------------------------- Subtalar (see pic) axis = basically 45 degrees from A-P vs. S-I = 42 degree upward angle A-P thus split motions A-P (@ ankle) ... rotation = Inversion + Eversion (rotated 90 degrees) + Vert (@ ankle) = ABd / ADd (frontal plane motions rotated 90 degrees)

What component movements make up pronation & supination what are the main contributions made by the ankle joints (x3)

Talocrural = Dorsi /Plantar Subtalar : Eversion & Inversion = major components = ABd + ADd Transverse Tarsal : = motion in all 3 planes 1. Adds to pronation/supination ROM in WB or NWB 2. Compensates the forefoot in reaction to position of the hindfoot. (Next Card)

Talorcrural

Calcaneous articulates with?

Talus + Cuboid not the naviculum

Position of Talus - why is this surprising

Talus is way out laterally and is held up by sustanticulum tali (outrigger for support)

Forefoot

Tarsometatarsal joints = 5 nonaxial, plane synovial joints; = function is primarily a continuation of mid-tarsal joint. Metatarsophalangeal joints (MTPs) = 5 biaxial condyloid joints. - flexion/extension + abduction/adduction. More extension than flexion compared to fingers, why?? An excessive amount of weight should not be placed on the first metatarsal head. In static standing, the ratio of weight distribution from heads 1-5 is 2:1:1:1:1. This varies greatly with gait with heads 2-4 generally taking more weight than 1 & 5. Interphalangeal: 1 IP, 4 PIP, 4 DIP; Uniaxial, hinge jts - flexion/extension. Function of toes: Smooth weight shift to opposite foot in gait Help maintain stability by pressing against ground both during static posture when necessary and in gait.

Avulsion Fracture

Tendon or ligament pulls bone away at site of attachment.

Femoral Version normal = too much = - how might you see it in foot too little = - how might you see it in foot

The angle typically created by a twisting (torsion) of the femoral shaft (from proximal to distal) normal : 15° (10-20°) of Anteversion Excessive Anteversion- greater than 20° = could lead to in-toeing (pigeon toed) Retroversion - less than 10° = could lead to out-toeing (duck foot) Pigeon Toe / Duck Foot = due to natural correction to realign the head of the femur / put it back in ideal position in acetabulum Craig's Test

Patellar Tracking name the forces acting on / driving the tracking of the patella (7)

The patella is kept in place by (and tracking is affected by): Intercondylar groove of the femur i large lateral femoral condyle The compressive forces between the patella and trochlear groove due to pull of quad & patellar tendons. Vastus Medialis (esp. VMO) prevents excessive lateral movement. · Vastus Lateralis that prevents excessive medial patellar movement. Iliopatellar Band - fibers connecting IT Band to lateral patella. Medial & Lateral Retinacular/Patellotibial Ligaments: anterior thickenings of capsule that extend from inferior border of patella distally to tibia on each side of patellar tendon.

CKC Pronation Describe motions at Tibia , Talus + Calcaneus

Tibia = IR > opp. of OKC Talus = Plantar Flexion + ADduction Calcaneous = Eversion -> same as OKC

Describe how the piriformis can cause neuropathic pain

The sciatic nerve usually exits the pelvis inferior to the pirifor- mis. As described earlier in this chapter, the sciatic nerve may passthrough the belly of the piriformis. A shortened, thickened, or"tight" piriformis may compress and irritate the sciatic nerve, acondition known as "piriformis syndrome."

1. Describe the general role of the Abs in stabilizing pelvis when the femur is being flexed (Figure 12-29)

The stabilizing role of the abdominal muscles is shown during a unilateral straight-leg raise. (A) With normal activation of the abdominal muscles (such as the rectus abdominis), the pelvis is stabilized and prevented from anterior tilting by the strong inferior pull of the hip flexor muscles. ... similar to how the serratus anterior prevents scapular winging at the shoulder = stabilizes anchor point (B) With reduced activation of the rectus abdominis, contraction of the hip flexor muscles causes a marked anterior tilt of the pelvis. Note the increase in lumbar lordosis that accompanies the anterior tilt of the pelvis. The reduced activation in the abdominal muscle is indicated by the lighter red.

Total Hip Replacement (THR) describe the parts

The stem, which fits into the femur The ball = replaces head of the femur The cup = replaces hip socket Each part comes in various sizes to accommodate various body sizes and types

Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome causes signs/symptoms how do you treat it

Tibial N Irritation SWELLING + PAIN with motion of any TDvanH = numbness + irritability of foot after the tarsal tunnel Most often due to friction from NEW ill fitting shoes = RICE + change shoes

Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome structures involved signs/symptoms

Tibial Nerve Entrapment Tarsal tunnel = medial malleolus, calcaneous + flexor retinatuclum contains : T D van H - tib posterior - flexor digitorum longus - flexor hallicus longus heel pain results from compression of the tibial nerve by the flexor retinaculum.

Peripheral nerves innervating (sensory) knee joint (capsule/ligs). If a person has a medically-induced femoral nerve block in the femoral triangle, which region of the knee joint will be anesthetized by the femoral nerve block? Which thigh muscles will not function from the femoral nerve block? [pg 558-559 Neumann]

Tibial n (from sciatic) - post capsule + associated ligaments - most of the internal structures of the knee as far anterior as the infrapatellar fat pad. Obturator nerve = cutaneous over medial aspect of knee Femoral nerve = ant-medial and ant-lateral capsul Will Block : - Anterior Femoral Cutaneous N. = anterior thigh + - Saphenous (inc. infrapatellar braches) - Anterior + Medial Knee (inc capsule , etc) - Medial Low Leg - Quads , Sartorious + Pectineus vs. Would NOT Block : - Iliopsoas Mm - Lateral Knee ( lateral sural cutaneous N. )

Describe how "external rotation of the knee" is different than "external rotation of the femur".

Tibial-on-femoral (knee) rotation =KNEE MUST BE FLEXED the femur is stationary direction of the knee rotation (internal or external) is the same as the motion of the tibia VS. (B) Femoral-on-tibial rotation. tibia is stationary and the femur is rotating (over a partially flexed knee). The direction of the knee ER or IR = is opposite of the motion of femur - external rotation of the knee occurs by internal rotation of the femur + - internal rotation of the knee occurs by external rotation of the femur.

Tibiofemoral Joint type of joint movements allowed general structure

Tibiofemoral Joint Modified hinge joint: = movement is primarily flexion/extension, but a small amount of rotation occurs Articular surfaces: Tibial condyles: slightly concave to flat (covered in hyaline cartilage) vs. Femoral condyles: convex (covered in hyaline cartilage) - separated posteriorly by deep intercondylar notch - anteriorly the condyles fuse to form the patellar surface of femur. Largest joint in the body

Inversion Sprain Prognosis Based on Ligaments Damaged

Traditional injuries of lateral ligaments: ● Anterior talo-fibular ligament is a capsular ligament without much definition ○ Torn easily and heals well without much loss of function ○ Occurs with plantar flexed ankle at time of injury ● Calcaneofibular ligament is a more structured ligament ○ Injury usually occurs if ankle is dorsiflexed ○ Ligament becomes vertical and is prime limiter in this position ○ More often leads to proprioceptive loss and some instability after healing ● Posterior talo-fibular ligament is a prime restrictor to talar translation ○ Interruption of this ligament causes severe instability ○ Almost always will require surgical intervention if torn

Arches of the foot what is the major form of support (as per Forbush)

Transverse = BOW wi Mm support Mm support is key to arches (not just ligamentous) - if a foot loses Mm = FLAT feet / no arches

Inferior Gluteal N Injury which muscles which motions compensation

Travels through the greater sciatic foramen inferior to piriformis: supplies gluteus maximus = extends the thigh and rotates thigh laterally. Seldom injured. Injury would result in paralysis of gluteus maximus m. "gluteus maximus gait" = you lean back when weak side is planted because you do not have the ability to keep you leg extended (straight up/down) Hanging on my Ys = Iliofemoral Ligament - limits extension + hip abduction so when hip extensors are weak you are able to lean back without falling over and then swing your leg through

Hip Capsular Laxity 2 types causes signs + symptoms treatment

Two Types Traumatic - acute dislocation causing stretching of the capsule - Fall on flexed hip/knee - Striking dashboard with knees Atraumatic - overuse or repetitive rotation with axial loading •Repetitive overload with axial loading •Factory workers working overhead and turning •Ball players with hitting and throwing •Pregnancy •People with generalized ligamentous laxity, acetabular dysplasia, labral pathology Signs and Symptoms •Painful and limited ROM (maybe not always limited) •Stretch of capsule (prone passive ext and ER) produces anterior hip pain •Stiffness, pain, flexion contracture of iliopsoas (if iliopsoas becomes dominant as stabilizer) Treatment •Traumatic dislocation •TTWB x 6 wks •Early A/PROM as tol with flex ≤ 90° and IR≤10° •Atraumatic instability •NSAIDS (you do not prescribe this , just ask them and find out if they already take at true antinflammatorys then that's it ... do not recommend bc high risk if they aren't used to it •Rehab - think shoulder instability = strengthen in limited ROM •If rehab unsuccessful - arthroscopy for capsular plication or labral repair

Pronation motion mobility? Affect on the Leg/Foot as a whole

Up + Away Dorsiflexion Abduction Eversion Flattens the arch creates a loose, mobile foot will functionally shorten the leg.

Strength of Deltoid Ligament?

VERY Strong Forces acting to open medial side of ankle may actually fracture off (avulse) the tibial malleolus before the deltoid ligament tears

Valgus vs. Varus stresses at knee what ligaments will be strained by each

Valgus = MCL + Medial Meinsicus + ACL? vs. Varus = LCL + Lateral Meniscus + PCL

Pelvic Drop: effect on: WB side LSpine muscles

WB hip ADduction + L-spine lateral flexion away from the drop (L-spine always towards higher leg)

When should you get imaging if you suspect a stress fx of the femur

Wait for 2 weeks wont show up for 2 weeks because wont be enough internal changes within the bone to be visible on the xray

Treatment of Patellofemoral Syndrome

Weak hip muscles = adduction/IR during gait ● Causes an increase in Q angle = Strengthen abductors/ER (Glut Max) Stretch - posterior muscles VMO training VMO Insufficiency ● Femoral nerve ● Obturator nerve ● Only dynamic medial constraint ● Specific strength via biofeedback? Taping - into optimal position ER - lateral structures slack Decrease effusion

Explain why hyper-inversion ankle sprains are far more common than hyper-eversion ankle sprains

When hyper-inversion occurs, the lateral ligaments are stretched/torn. = Anterior Talofibular = Most common The mechanics of the typical "sprained ankle" usually involve a component of excessive inversion. relative high frequency of inversion sprains can be partially explained by the slight inversion of the calcaneus at the instant the heel contacts the ground while walking, coupled with the inability of the medial malleolus to adequately block the medial side of the mortise.

Suprapatellar bursitis

abrasions or penetrating wounds may result in suprapatellar bursitis caused by bacteria entering the bursa from the torn skin. This infected bursa differs from acute bursitis because of the localized redness and enlarged popliteal and inguinal lymph nodes. The infection may spread to the knee joint.

What is true of most post surgical hip rehab

You want alot of motion early just not FWB and avoid ER , ABd + end ranges

Piriformis syndrome

a pain in the buttock that results from compression of the sciatic nerve by the piriformis muscle Persons in sports that require excessive use of the gluteal muscles and women are more likely to develop this syndrome (ice & roller skaters, cyclists, mountain climbers). In 50% of cases, histories indicate trauma to the buttock associated with hypertrophy and spasm of the piriformis muscle.

Groin pull

a strain, stretching, and probably some tearing of the proximal attachments of the anteromedial thigh muscles has occurred. Usually involves the flexor and adductor thigh muscles. -The proximal attachments of these muscles are in the inguinal region (groin), the junction of the thigh and trunk. Groin pulls usually occur in sports that require quick starts such as short-distance racing, base stealing in baseball, and quick starts in basketball, football, and soccer.

pronation of foot ... why is it good? too much?

absorbs / dissipates force during loading but excessive pronation = over stresses mm + fascia = collapses arches

Transverse Tarsal Joint aka two parts

aka Midtarsal Joint Divides hindfoot from midfoot. Combination of 2 joints: Talonavicular & Calcaneocuboid = form an S-shaped joint line across the foot. Talonavicular Joint: reinforced by calcaneonavicular (spring) ligament. (sustentaculum tali - navicular tuberosity) middle portion supports the head of the talus Spring ligament also supports longitudinal arch of the foot (will discuss later) Calcaneocuboid Joint: - support is via long and short plantar ligaments. - Long plantar ligament supports both calcaneocuboid joint as well as longitudinal arch of foot

Flat Footed aka due to ______ drop caused by ________ affects which ligament(s) + which arches

Primary Functions of the Transverse (/mid) TARSAL JOINT:

aka Transverse Tarsal Joint 1. Adds to pronation/supination ROM in WB or NWB 2. Compensates the forefoot in reaction to position of the hindfoot. Loading Response - hindfoot = pronates - to absorb shock + - Midfoot/forefoot = supinates - stabilizes foot Pronation of Hindfoot = "Unlocks" Midfoot/Forefoot = allowing for this compsenatory supination ... once hindfoot starts to supinate = limits supination of midtarsal joint hindfoot supination occurs when foot is required to serve as a rigid lever

Plantar calcaneonavicular ligament location function

aka spring ligament - thick band of fibers that connects sustentaculum tali to naviculum (plantar surface) supports head of talus forming part of an articular socket on dorsal surface for talocalcaneonavicular joint. supports the medial longitudinal + transverse arches of the foot

Adductor Canal - aka - borders - contents begins / ends

aka subsartorial canal starts :where femoral triangle ends (sartorius meets adductor longus) runs medial to vastus medialis in medial thigh (according to picture??) ends : Adductor Hiatus Contents: - Femoral A. term-1 - Femoral V. - Saphaneous N - N to Vastus Medialis (both branches of Femoral N.)

calcaneus inversion when does it occur

aka varus will naturally occur as you stand on your tip toes / push off during gait

Hallux Valgus aka

an abnormal enlargement of the joint at the base of the great toe (bunion)

Angle of Inclination define why is it important normal adult range + overall average

angle formed by the neck and shaft of the femur. Allows lower extremities to be parallel during standing. 120 - 140° normal range in adults; 125° avg Can be greater than 150° in infants = need a wider base of support when start walking

ACL function most common mechanism of injury

anterior displacement of tibia (on femur) + Prevents IR of tibia bc of its medial lateral orientation Mechanism of Injury Change of direction (70% of all injuries are non-contact) - Hyperextension - Blow to the knee females > males

ACL rupture most often caused by (be specific about knee position) special test

anterior force on a semi-flexed knee (loose packed) also seen with ER of hip / IR of tibia (landing awkwardly after jumping) results in Anterior drawer sign = Tibia slides anteriorly on the femur The ACL may tear away from the femur or tibia; however, tears commonly occur in the midportion of the ligament.

Subtalar Joint

articulation: Inferior talus and calcaneus Three articulations & two joint capsules - one capsule = posterior articulation - second capsule = middle + anterior articulations. Ligamentous support: Interosseous talocalcaneal ligaments from inferior talus to superior calcaneus. most lateral = cervical ligament + inferior retinaculum (sinus tarsi) + Deltoids + Lateral ankle ligaments = not a ton of support at this joint

Abnormal Patellar Tracking

best option : providing advice on ways to modify physical activities that create unnecessarily large stress on the patellofemoral joint . Ex: anterior knee pain - limit exercises or functional activities that demand large forces from the quads, especially when performed in higher degrees of flexion. - activities such as bending or squatting should be modified when possible in a way that partially shifts the muscular forces from the quads to the hip extensor mm conservative treatments: alter alignment of the tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joints = reduce the magnitude of the lateral bowstringing force of the patella o Strengthening of challenging the control over the hip abductor and external rotators mms o Trunk mms o Quads (particularly oblique fibers of vastus medialis) o Stretching tight periarticular connective tissues of the hip and knee o Mobilizing the patella o Using patella brace or using a foot orthosis to reduce excessive pronation of the foot o Patellar taping has been used in attempt to guide the patella's tracking, alter the mm activation pattern of the oblique fibers of the vastus medialis, or provide increased biofeedback from the region

Superior Tibofibular Joint between relative position in anatomical position type of joint movements

callcaneous (spongy) = absorbs shock - tends to be found along lines of stress cortical (compact) = resists shear + torsion

Femoral nerve (nerve block):

can be blocked with anesthetic during surgery - results in paresthesia (tingling, burning, tickling) that radiates to the knee and over the medial side of the leg if the saphenous nerve (terminal branch of femoral) is affected.

Meniscal tears in the knee which is more common signs / symptoms - pain with medial vs. lateral rotation commonly paired with what other injurys prognosis of healing treatment

commonly involve medial meniscus. - lateral meniscus does not usually tear due to its mobility. Pain wi - ER = lateral meniscus - IR = medial meniscus Medial meniscus + MCL + ACL = terrible triad of knee Peripheral meniscal tears can often be repaired or will heal on their own because of the generous blood supply to the area. Meniscal tears that do not heal or cannot be repaired are usually removed (arthroscopic surgery). Knee joints from which the menisci have been removed suffer no loss of mobility; however, the tibial plateaus often undergo inflammatory reactions.

Meniscal tears

commonly involve medial meniscus. The lateral meniscus does not usually tear because of its mobility. Pain on lateral rotation of the tibia on the femur indicates injury of the lateral meniscus, whereas pain on medial rotation of the tibia on the femur indicates injury of the medial meniscus. Most meniscal tears occur when the tibial collateral ligament and/or the ACL is torn. Peripheral meniscal tears can often be repaired or will heal on their own because of the generous blood supply to the area. Meniscal tears that do not heal or cannot be repaired are usually removed (arthroscopic surgery). Knee joints from which the menisci have been removed suffer no loss of mobility; however, the tibial plateaus often undergo inflammatory reactions.

Head of Femur covered by ______________ with the exception of the _______

completely covered by articular (hyaline) cartilage with the exception of the fovea capitis femoris

Medial Plantar Nerve Compression where does it occur what is affected name?

compression as the nerve passes deep to the flexor retinaculum or curves deep to the abductor hallucis may cause aching, burning, numbness, and tingling (paresthesia) on the medial side of the sole and in the region of the navicular tuberosity. Medial plantar nerve compression may occur during repetitive eversion of the foot. Because of its frequency in runners, these symptoms have been called "jogger's foot."

Femoral Artery branches + pathways

continuation of External Iliac A from : inguinal ligament to : adductor hiatus = becomes popliteal artery Course: - femoral triangle - adductor (subsartorial canal) - adductor hiatus Supplies Anterior Compartment of thigh Branches: Deep Femoral Artery = supplies posterior + medial compartments of thigh Descending Genicular : knee anastomoses = medial side of knee just before adductor hiatus - 4 branches just inferior to inguinal ligament (lat - circumflex iliac - superficial epigstric - superficial external pudendal - deep external pudendal)

Sinus Tarsi

covered by interosseous talocalcaneal ligaments = of subtalor joint

Medial vs. Lateral Meniscus made of which is larger which is more mobile vascularized / innervated?? Function

crescent/wedge shaped fibrocartilage discs deepen the tibial plateaus Increase joint congruency absorbs shock / distributes compressive forces improve stability medial meniscus is larger Lateral is more mobile. Outer 1/3 to 1/4 is vascular & innervated = horns are vascular & innervated...rest is not. (so called "Red", "Pink", "White" zones)

Strengthening the Quads while limiting external torques on knee what exercises should you do / in what ranges to accomplish this

exercises that significantly challenge the quadriceps also stress the knee joint, patellofemoral joint, and periarticular connective tissues such as the ACL. = potentially damaging or therapeutic, depending upon any underlying pathologies (ex arthritis vs. elite Athlete) external torques are relatively large from - 90 to 45 flexion via femoral-on-tibial ext (squat) vs. - 45 to 0 flexion via tibial-on-femoral ext (seated ext) How to use this to reduce stress = Do motions only in the ranges with the lowest amounts of external torque + combine them to create a full ROM of Knee Extension do resisted tibial-on-femoral knee extension specifically between 90 and 45 degrees of flexion. + rising from a partial squat position, a motion that incorporates femoral-on-tibial extension between 45 and 0 degrees of flexion. = strengthen the quadriceps yet minimize the stress on the underlying patellofemoral joint

Tibial collateral ligament (MCL) Tear due to what type of force paired with what other injuries + why does this occur

damage is frequently caused by a blow to the lateral side of the knee. Injury to the medial meniscus results from the twisting strain on the knee when it is flexed. Because the meniscus is firmly adherent to the MCL, twisting strains of this ligament may tear and/or detach the medial meniscus from the fibrous capsule. This injury is common in athletes who twist their flexed knees while running (football, volleyball). The ACL may tear when the tibial collateral ligament ruptures. First, the tibial collateral ligament ruptures, opening the joint on the medial side and possibly tearing the medial meniscus and ACL. This "unhappy triad of injuries" can result from clipping in football.

How do retinactular tissues of the ankle differ from those at the wrist

differ from flexor retinaculum of wrist bc they are under constant irritation from shoes etc

Patellar dislocation:

dislocation is nearly always lateral and happens more often in women. It is counterbalanced by the medial, more horizontal pull of the vastus medialis

Osgood-Schlatter disease:

disruption of the epiphyseal (growth ) plate at tibial tuberosity which may cause inflammation of the tibial tuberosity and chronic recurring pain during adolescence, especially in young athletes. pulls tibial bone away via the patellar tendon (avulsion fracture)

Anterior tibialis strain (shin splints)

edema and pain in the area of the distal 2/3 of the tibia results from repetitive microtrauma of the tibialis anterior and small tears in the periosteum covering the body of the tibia. These commonly result from traumatic injury or athletic overexertion of muscles in the anterior compartment, especially the tibialis anterior, by untrained persons. Often persons who lead sedentary lives develop shin splints when they participate in walkathons. Shin splints also occur in trained runners who do not warm up and warm down sufficiently. Muscles in the anterior compartment swell from sudden overuse, and the edema and muscle-tendon inflammation reduce the blood-flow to the muscles. Shin splints are a mild form of the anterior compartment syndrome. The swollen muscles are painful and tender to pressure.

excessive anteversion commonly seen in people with CP

Deep fibular nerve entrapment

excessive use of muscles supplied by the deep fibular nerve (skiing, running, dancing) may result in muscle injury and edema in the anterior compartment. This entrapment may cause compression of the deep fibular nerve and pain in the anterior compartment. Compression of the nerve by tight-fitting ski boots, for example, may occur where the nerve passes deep to the inferior extensor retinaculum and the extensor hallucis brevis. Pain occurs in the dorsum of the foot and radiates to the web space between the 1st and 2nd digits.

Common peroneal nerve Injury causes muscles affected movements affected compensations

exposed position = winds around the head of the fibula (just before bisecting) commonly injured in fractures of fibular head or from pressure from plaster casts or splints . Motor: Superficial peroneal nerve = peroneus longus and brevis—can't evert ankle. Deep peroneal nerve = tibialis anterior, extensor hallucis longus, extensor digitorum longus, peroneus tertius and extensor digitorum brevis. Lose dorsiflexion and toe extension. = The opposing muscles, plantar flexor, inverters of subtalar and transverse tarsal joints are unopposed and cause the foot to be plantar flexed (foot drop) and inverted. Sensory: = loss of sensation on anterior and lateral leg, dorsum of foot and toes, except for nail beds = distal phalanges

Deep Femoral Artery branches + pathway of each

femoral just inferior to inguinal ligament supplies posterior + medial compartments of thigh exits femoral triangle between pectineus + adductor longus runs deep to adductor longus = perforating branches branches: - medial circumflex = to head + neck of femur =*between iliopsoas + pectineus* - lateral circumflex = to head + neck of femur = *between sartorius + rectus femoris* +Lateral Descending Branch to knee = anastomoses - perforating branches (4) to adductor longus

distal tibiofibular joint location type of joint support

fibrous joint (syndesmosis) = no actual bony contact between fibula and tibia Crural tibiofibular interosseous lig = maintains proximity of Tib/Fib strongest and most important Anterior & Posterior Tibiofibular Ligaments "tib-fib sprain", aka: high ankle sprain) Interosseous membrane - supports both proximal distal tibiofibular joints.

Pes Planus

flat arched foot = Pronated (typically pronated hindfoot)

Popliteal cysts

fluid-filled herniations of the synovial membrane of the knee joint, or distensions of the gastrocnemius or semimembranosus bursa. A popliteal cyst is almost always a complication of chronic knee joint effusion. Synovial fluid may escape from the knee joint (synovial effusion) or a bursa around the knee and collect in the popliteal fossa. Here it forms a new synovial-lined sac or popliteal cyst (Baker's cyst). The cyst may communicate with the synovial cavity of the knee joint by a narrow stalk, which suggests that some cysts result from herniation of the synovial membrane Popliteal cysts are common in children but seldom cause symptoms. In adults, popliteal cysts can be large and may extend as far as the midcalf. In some cases, the cyst may interfere with knee movements.

Knee plica what are they / function

folds in synovial membrane Plicae may serve to reinforce the synovial membrane of the knee · 3 most common: suprapatellar plicae, inferior plicae, and medial plica (also called alar ligament, synovialis patellaris, and intra-articular medial band pathology occurs most often in the medial plica, = pain in anterior-medial region of the knee. Inflammation can cause patellar tendonitis, torn medial meniscus, or patellofemoral joint pain

14.5 - example of the kinematic versatility of the foot hindfoot vs. midfoot vs. forefoot = loaded vs unloaded

foot loaded of otherwise fixed to the ground = pronating rearfoot --> midfoot and forefoot regions, which are receiving firm upward counterforce from the floor = twist into relative supination foot is not under load of body: - pronation of the unloaded foot = summation of pronation at STJ + TTJ OKC = STJ + TTJ = Pronation + Supination ... about fixed TCJ vs. CKJ = Primarily TCJ + IR/ER of low leg ... about fixed foot

Hammer toes more commonly seen in pronation or supination?

fore commonly see in supination due to increased inclination of MTP

Hallux Valgus

genetics improper footwear excessive pronation valgus deformity at the 1st MTP (mostly due to excessive adduction at the tarsometatarsal joint) = exposes the metatarsal head; + osteophyte formation & arthritis of the 1st MTP results in bunion formation, pain, and loss of motion & function

Ankle Sprain Rx : Crutches based on grade of injury what are you looking for overall??

grade I = 2-3 days grade II = 3-4 weeks grade III = surgery Use as guideline - When walk without a limp

Excessive Q Angle

greater than 20 degrees (normal 10-15) results in genu valgum (knock knee) Greater in females (bc wider hips) Excessive Q angle can result in excessive lateral patellar tracking due to increased lateral force on patella

Active vs. Passive Gait easy way to tell which is better + why

gripping toes = active active is better bc Passive = more time in eccentric - more strain on Mm tissue vs. Active = less time + "depth" of eccentric loading on Mm Forbush = Foot Stability is based on Mm not just ligaments

proximal tibiofibular joint location type of joint support

head of fibula + posterolateral aspect prox tibia. SYNOVIAL Surrounded by joint capsule (separate from knee joint) supported by: - anterior + posterior tibiofibular ligaments Interosseous membrane

Patella sit high during ________ vs. Low during _________

high = full extension low = flexion (gets pulled down)

Pes Cavus

high arched foot = Supinated (typically supinated hindfoot)

Why might an Inversion Sprain Occur How does the body naturally prevent this

hindfoot supination occurs when foot is required to serve as a rigid lever (last half of stance phase & at initial contact). If hindfoot becomes supinated and the mid & forefoot is unable to compensate, then the entire medial border of the foot may lift. If this happens, an inversion sprain of the lateral ligaments of the ankle will often result, unless the muscles/tendons on the lateral side of the foot are strong and well controlled Body naturally prevents this by allowing the midfoot + forefoot to supinate at the subtalar joint when the foot is loaded

Clinical Connections 13.4 : TYPICAL MOVEMENT COMBINATIONS: HIP-AND-KNEE EXTENSION OR HIP-AND-KNEE FLEXION

hip-and-knee extension or hip-and-knee flexion. = fundamental to walking, running, jumping, climbing. Hip-and-knee extension propels the body forward or upward. vs. hip-and-knee flexion advances lower limb or slowly lowers body towards the ground. controlled through a synergy of monoarticular and polyarticular muscles Fig. 13.43 (see attached) VL , VM + glut max monoarticular muscles = synergistic with biarticular semitendinosus + rectus femoris mm both concentrically contracting but vastus muscles overpower the contraction efforts of the semitendinosus. = tension stored in the forced lengthening of the semitendinosus across the knee is used to assist with active extension at the hip. Biarticular mm has to shorten a shorter distance and thus at a lower velocity due to the monoarticular mm overpowering it and preventing one of its motions slower velocity = relatively high force production per level of neural drive or effort. (force-velocity curve) + length-tension relationship, the internal resistance or force within a muscle increases as it is stretched. = passive force created within the stretched semitendinosus (across the extending knee).. by vastus ... recycled = helps to extend the hip acts as a traducer = transfers force ultimately produced by the contracting vastus muscles to the extending hip. ------------------------------------------------------------- THIS EX IS EASIER TO UNDERSTAND another example monoarticular gluteus maximus extends hip more strongly than RF can flex it = stretches the activated rectus femoris rectus femoris is the biarticular transducer transfers force from the gluteus maximus to knee extension. -------------------------------------------------------------- See Table 13.8 (next slides) for summary of relationships at hip/knee The functional interdependence among the hip-and-knee extensor muscles and among the hip-and-knee flexor muscles should be considered in evaluation of functional activities that require these active movement combinations. Consider, for example, the combined movements of hip-and-knee extension required to stand from a seated position. Weakness of the vastus muscle = indirectly cause difficulty in extending the hip and/or weakness of the gluteus maximus could indirectly cause difficulty in extending the knee. Strengthening programs may benefit by designing resistive challenges that incorporate this natural synergy between these muscles. Consider also someone with patellofemoral joint pain during active contraction of the quadriceps. = Encouraging this person to activate his or her hip extensor muscles to assist with knee extension may reduce the active demands placed on the quadriceps, thereby potentially lowering the compression forces placed on the patellofemoral joint.

Function of FHL in Normal Gait

hold up sustentaculum tali = not allow talus to fall medially with weight bearing between heel contact and mid-stance (pronation)

Function of Posterior Tib in Normal Gait

How low leg rotation & hindfoot motion are related

in WB (CKC) IR of tibia = pronation of hindfoot ...+ visa versa vs. ER of Tibia =supination of the hindfoot ...+ vica versa. = last half of stance & at the end of swing

Trochanteric bursitis

inflammation of the trochanteric bursae which often results from repetitive actions such as climbing stairs when carrying heavy objects or running on a steeply elevated treadmill. These movements involve the gluteus maximus and move the superior tendinous fibers repeatedly back and forth over the bursae of the greater trochanter. It causes deep diffuse pain in the lateral thigh region. This type of friction bursitis is characterized by point tenderness over the greater trochanter. The pain radiates along the iliotibial tract that extends from the iliac tubercle to the tibia. This thickening of the fascia lata receives tendinous reinforcements from the tensor of the fascia lata and the gluteus maximus. The pain from an inflamed trochanteric bursa, usually localized just posterior to the greater trochanter, can be elicited by manually resisting abduction and lateral rotation of the thigh while the person is lying on the unaffected side.

Navicular Tuberosity importance

insertion of tibialis posterior + tibonavicular ligament (deltoid)

PTF stressed via

inversion = bc is lateral + Dorsiflexion = bc is posterior

intertrochanteric fracture key to recovery

just below the femoral neck = No WB early more amenable to repair vs. femoral neck fractures - bc blood supply may not be compromised placement of a plate and screws to stabilize the fractures Because the bone blood flow is usually intact, these fractures can usually be repaired, and do not require the hip replacement procedure described previously

Extensor Lag of Knee describe condition + when/why it might occur treatment?

knee can be fully extended passively BUT AROM = Lacks last 15-20 degrees of extension. = quadricep weakness occurs during post-surgery rehab Mechanisms of injury - knee approaches terminal extension, the max internal torque potential of the quads is greatest ( not observed in people with normal quad strength) Swelling can physically impede full extension. + Increased intraarticular pressure can reflexively inhibit the neural activation of the quads muscle. PI of hamstrings in seated position can also limit extension Treatment - reduce swelling of the knee, therefore, can have an important role in a therapeutic exercise program of the knee

Excessive Genu Valgus range compresses which compartment of the knee?

knock kneed 15 + degrees of genu valgum compresses lateral compartment (of knee)

Peripheral N Sensory Testing in Leg describe which N + where to test

less commonly used than dermatomes bc damage to a nerve usually requires some sort of acute injury (fx , cut, etc) Medial leg - Saphenous nerve (medial cutaneous nerve) off of the femoral nerve complex (L2-L4) Lateral leg - Lateral sural cutaneous (superior), superficial fibular (central lateral leg and dorsal foot except 1st web space) Lateral foot - Sural nerve via lateral dorsal cutaneous branch of tibial nerve 1st web space - Deep fibular n. (L5)

Why are ROM of Hip IR / ER greatest when hip is flexed??

ligaments are relatively loose

Tibialis Posterior

loading : eccentric = slowing / controls pronation/eversion of calcaneous (overuse injuries) push off : concentric = main supinator Mm to lock in foot before you push off

Tibialis Posterior : role in gait

loading : eccentric = slowing / controls pronation/eversion of calcaneous (overuse injuries) push off : concentric = main supinator Mm to lock in foot before you push off

Femoral Acetabular Impingement (FAI) what is it 3 types

malformed hip joint = leads to breakdown of the intraarticular structures (labrum + articular cartilage) -> causing pain and associated dysfunction -> followed by premature osteoarthritis 3 types Cam abnormalities of femoral head (@ head-neck junction) - often seen with increase Alpha angle = cartilage and labral wear in acetabulum Pincer acetabular over-coverage, = impingement of femoral head/neck on acetabular rim Mixed both

Longitudinal Arches of the Foot are supported by what ligament(s)

medial : = calcaneonavicular (SPRING) ligament both : Short and long plantar ligaments

Deltoid Ligament where is it is it strong?

medial ankle VERY Strong Forces acting to open medial side of ankle may actually fracture off (avulse) the tibial malleolus before the deltoid ligament tears

Describe position of the Medial Condyle of the Femur how does this affect stability related to what measurement

medial condyle is located more distally = put WB directly under pelvis Q angle normal = 12-15 degrees

Deltoid Ligaments of the Ankle which side name them

medial side of foot

How do you differentiate between OA/RA in the foot

might have same visual presentation BUT RA = loose joints OA = extremely tight / rigid joints

Longitudinal Arch of the foot Mm support

mm support by 3 FHL = only active structure that controls sustentaculum tali Tibialis anterior Flexor Digitorum Longus

Dorsalis Pedis Artery pathway + branches

name the vessel and its pathway/branches - continuation of the Anterior Tibial A after the artery crosses the talocrural joint. (anterior to medial malleolus) - gives rise to - Arcuate A Dorsal metatarsal As (3) - Dorsal digital As - Deep plantar A: continuation of dorsalis pedis. = descends between 2 heads of origin of 1st dorsal interosseous muscle = to sole of foot = It anastomoses w/ the lateral plantar A to form plantar arch

Subtalar Joint Neutral Position why is this important functionally Question: Which muscle groups may, theoretically, serve to "decelerate" pronation via eccentric contraction b/c the location of their tendons seems to support the medial longitudinal arch?

neutral position subtalar joint neither pronated or supinated. = assumed that weight-bearing foot will be more efficient and less prone to injury if the subtalar joint's range of movement and function stays close to neutral, Some have questioned the actual existence of STJN. However, remains a common reference point that has been described repeatedly in the literature. We need to be able to identify subtalar malalignment so that Tibialis Posterior = Pure supinator - eccentrically limits/slows pronation during loading

Acetabular Fossa contents function?

non articulating surface = no hyaline cartilage allows space for the ligamentum teres, mobile fat pad + synovial membrane, and blood vessels. mobile fat fad = shock absorber "squish , squish"

Tibial Torsion normal vs. toe in / toe our

normal = external (lateral) torsion of 15-20° Internal torsion (potentially toed-in) vs. excessive external torsion (potentially toed-out)

Ischial bursitis

occurs from recurrent microtrauma from repeated stress (cycling) which overwhelms the ischial bursa's ability to dissipate applied stress. The recurrent trauma results in inflammation of the bursa (ischial bursitis); calcification in the bursa may occur with chronic bursitis.

Open vs. Closed Packed Positions of Hip

open = ER + slight flexion + ABd tight = IR + Extension + ADd

Arthrokinematics of Knee (Open vs Closed Chain) describe each including locking/unlocking

open chain = tibia crest on femoral condyles - moving concave - roll and slide = same direction + - "locking" via external rotation OF TIBIA (extension) -"unlocking" via internal rotation of TIBIA (flexion) vs. closed chain = femoral condyles on tibial crest - moving convex - roll + slide in opposite direction + - "locking" via internal rotation OF FEMUR (extension) ... standing up - "unlocking" via external rotation OF FEMUR (flexion) ... squatting / leg press

Forbush : When should an orthoses be used (2)

orthoses = splint used to stabilize something while it heals or when there is a LOSS of a structure

Most common type of arthritis

osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease) - specifically of the knee

14.6 - the use of a foot orthosis for controlling excessive pronation

overuse injuries associated with excessive pronation - inflammation of the IT tract - patellofemoral pain syndrome - plantar fasciitis, stress fractures - achilles + patellar tendinopathy foot orthosis can reduce peak rearfoot pronation during walking, standing, and running by an average of about 2 degrees - reduces the demand on mms (such as the tibialis posterior) - optimizes the alignment of the bones and joints - produces a subtle change in the kinematic sequencing in the joints proximal to the foot - or simply provides physical support to the plantar medial aspect of the foot Greater "eccentric" control over the mms that decelerate pronation and other associated motions mechanically linked to pronation may reduce the rate of loading of tissues throughout the lower limb

Sciatica

pain along sensory distribution of sciatic nerve - posterior aspect of thigh, posterior and lateral sides of leg, and lateral foot. Can be caused by: - prolapse of an intervertebral disc - pressure of individual roots - pressure on sacral plexus - sciatic nerve by tumor

Patellofemoral syndrome

pain deep to the patella often results from excessive, especially downhill (runner's knee). The pain results from repetitive microtrauma caused by abnormal tracking of the patella with the patellar surface of the femur. The patellofemoral syndrome may also result from a direct blow to the patella and from osteoarthritis of the patellofemoral compartment (degenerative wear and tear of articular cartilages). Prepatellar bursitis: usually a friction bursitis caused by friction between the skin and the patella;

FAI pain is seen with which motions vs. which motions do you limit after surgery

pain with end range Flexion , IR + ADd (or combo) after surgery avoid : Limit ABd + Rotation 10-21 days + Full Flexion (4 weeks)

Jumpers Knee aka caused by intrinsic vs. extrinsic factors biomechanics of landing a jump

patellar tendinopathy chronic pain in the patellar tendon associated with explosive and repetitive jumping, like basketball and volleyball signs: - overuse and wear, = collagen disorganization and vascular proliferation. Typically involved tendons lack classic indicators associated with actual inflammation extrinsic factors - training intensity, playing surface, and footwear intrinsic factors - strength, endurance, flexibility, skill level, tendon elasticity, males gender, anthropometrics (BW and height), patellar hypermobility, and patellar alta. Large tendon forces associated with specific landing or jumping techniques as been also been associated forces up to 7 times BW biomechanics of landing from a jump. = dissipating the kinetic energy of landing form a jump 1. rate and magnitude of ankle dorsiflexion 2. eccentric activation of lower limb muscles particularly the quads and plantar flexors. limited ankle dorsiflexion (and stiff Achilles tendon) = reduce load absorption capability of the plantar flexor muscles = greater percentage of the total load absorption would shift to the quads mechanism. Athletes who developed patellar tendinopathy = on avg 5 degrees less ankle dorsiflexion than the group who did not develop this condition. Treatment - exercises that increase dorsiflexion of the ankle

Paralyzed quadriceps

patient cannot extend the leg against resistance and usually presses on the distal end of the thigh during walking to prevent inadvertent flexion of the knee joint.

which position do you put the ankle in for mobilization (at Talocrural Joint) vs. More Distally?

plantar flexed because is open packed position distal = dorsiflexed bc locks talocural ... prevents extra motion / stable base

Describe the compressive forces acting on the knee how does the patella protect from these?

posterior patella = thick layer of articular cartilage. compressive forces between the patella and femur : - 3-4 times body weight on stairs - 7-8 times body weight with deep squatting. due to: - combined pull of quads and patellar tendon increases compressive forces on patellofemoral joint ... especially if flexion occurs with weight bearing. with knee near extension: - If the pull of vastus lateralis is significantly greater than that of vastus medialis oblique = patella may be forced laterally out of the groove dislocation of the patella

Functions of the Acetabular Labrum

provides significant mechanical stability to the hip = "gripping" the femoral head + deepening the acetabular socket. maintains a negative intra-articular pressure. The resulting so-called "suction seal" has been shown to be more effective than the capsule at resisting the first 1-2 mm of joint distraction (separation). forms a seal around the joint = prevents leakage of synovial fluid - Maintaining the synovial fluid over weight-bearing surfaces enhances the lubrication of the articular cartilage and thereby reduces frictional resistance to movement - thin coating of synovial fluid over the articular surfaces helps mechanically dissipate contact stress

Function of Tibofibular Joints

proximal articular of ankle joint = allows that surface to be both stable and adjustable. Fibula = several muscles attached therefore must be relatively stable/fixed

2nd Mm Layer of the foot = Mm + Tendons how do you know it is injured (vs. deeper structures)

quadratus plantae controls FDL = they fire together FDL + FHL Tendons

Anterior dislocation of the hip joint

results from a violent injury that forces the hip into extension, abduction, and lateral rotation. In these cases, the femoral head is inferior to the acetabulum. Often, the acetabular margin fractures, producing a fracture-dislocation of the hip joint. When the femoral head dislocates, it usually carries the acetabular bone fragment and acetabular labrum with it.

Vastus medialis or lateralis weakness

results from arthritis or trauma of the knee joint; can result in abnormal patellar movement and loss of joint stability.

Anterior compartment syndrome

results from hemorrhage from the anterior tibial artery Compartmental pressure builds up within the anterior fascial compartment, compressing the deep fibular nerve in this compartment = person could not extend his toes or dorsiflex his foot. Severe compression of the tibialis anterior and deep fibular nerve also results in foot-drop and a stepping gait. Compression and hemorrhage of the anterior tibial also causes loss of the dorsalis pedis pulse because the dorsal artery of the foot is the terminal branch of the anterior tibial artery. The severe pain could be relieved by performing a fasciotomy, an incision through the anterior crural intermuscular septum to relieve the compartmental pressure.

Superior gluteal nerve injury:

results in a characteristic motor loss = weakened abduction of the thigh by the gluteus medius, a disabling gluteus medius limp, a compensatory lean of the body to the weakened gluteal side. The compensation occurs to place the center of gravity over the supporting lower limb and reduce the adduction moment. Medial rotation of the thigh is also severely impaired. When a person with paralysis of the superior gluteal nerve is asked to stand on one leg, the pelvis on the unsupported side descends, indicating that the gluteus medius on the supported side is weak or nonfunctional. This observation is referred to clinically as a positive Trendelenburg test.

toe out (duck foot) can be caused by _____________ at the hip

retroversion

Anterior (whole) pelvic tilt what plane causes pubic symphysis to move results in: hip _____ lumbar _____ +/- lumbar lordosis muscles

sagittal plane. Anterior tilt causes symphysis pubis to move inferiorly. Anterior tilt results: - hip flexion - lumbar extension = increasing normal lumbar lordosis. hip flexors and spine extensors

Posterior (whole) pelvic tilt what plane causes pubic symphysis to move results in: hip _____ lumbar _____ +/- lumbar lordosis muscles

sagittal plane. Posterior tilt causes symphysis pubis to move superiorly. Posterior tilt results in: - hip extension - lumbar flexion = decrease / flattening of normal lumbar lordosis rectus abdominis, internal obliques, glut max, & hamstrings

ACL rupture

severe force directed anteriorly with the knee semi-flexed may also tear the ACL. ACL ruptures, one of the most common knee injuries in skiing accidents, allow the tibia to slide anteriorly on the femur - the anterior drawer sign. The ACL may tear away from the femur or tibia; however, tears commonly occur in the midportion of the ligament.

Describe the Overall Shape + Orientation of the Femur - how does this affect strength + stability

shaft of the femur = slight anterior convexity = bows very slightly when subjected to the weight of the body. Consequently, stress along the bone is dissipated through: - compression along posterior shaft - tension along anterior shaft bowing allows the femur to bear a greater load than if it were perfectly straight. the shaft of the femur courses slightly medially = places the knees and feet closer to the midline of the body. ("corrects" for lateral distance created by neck)

Tendonitis of Medial Foot differential dx = what should hurt

Saphenous nerve (cutting):

should the saphenous nerve be cut during a saphenous cutdown or caught by a ligature during closure of a surgical wound, the patient may complain of pain along the medial border of the foot.

Plantar fasciitis

straining and inflammation of the plantar aponeurosis may result from running and high-impact aerobics, especially when inappropriate footwear are worn. Pain is worst first thing in the morning The pain increases with passive dorsiflexion of the great toe. If a calcaneal spur (abnormal bony process) protrudes form the medial calcaneal tubercle, the plantar fasciitis may produce the "heel spur syndrome." Usually a bursa develops at the end of the spur that may also become inflamed and tender.

What do you do for a Plica Issue in the Knee

how position of subtalar joint affect stability of the transverse tarsal joint

subtalar joint : - controls the position of the rearfoot - indirectly controls the stability of the more distal joints, especially the transverse tarsal joint Full supination at STJ = restricts the overall flexibility of the midfoot vs. Full pronation of the STJ = increases the overall flexibility of the midfoot ... allow for opposite actions to occur in WB to help balance the foot during stance phasse

Patella : Anatomy embedded in the

superior = Base Inferior = Apex embedded in capsule AND in quadriceps tendon Posteriorly: vertical ridge divides patella into two concavities: medial facet, lateral facet; another ridge medially results in the "odd" facet on the extreme medial border of the medial facet. Females tend to have a slightly greater Genu Valgus = may lead to more patella issues

Supination vs. Pronation : Mobility

supinated = locked + rigid pronated = floppy + mobile

Forces at the Knee During Flexion

the more you flex the greater the forces on the knee

Common fibular nerve injury

the most injured nerve in the lower limb because it winds superficially around the fibular neck. - may be severed during fracture of the fibular neck - severely stretched when the knee joint is injured or dislocated. Severance of the common fibular nerve results in paralysis of all muscles in the anterior and lateral compartments of the leg (dorsiflexors of the ankle and evertors of the foot). The loss of dorsiflexion of the ankle causes foot-drop during gait. Compensation for this may include a high stepping ("steppage") gait, excessive hip to keep the toes from dragging on the ground. In addition, the foot comes down suddenly, producing a "foot slap". The person also experiences a variable loss of sensation on the anterolateral aspect of the leg and the

Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome (Tibial nerve entrapment)

the tibial nerve leaves the posterior compartment of the leg by passing deep to the flexor retinaculum in the interval between the medial malleolus and calcaneus. Entrapment and compression of the tibial nerve (tarsal tunnel syndrome) occurs when there is edema and tightness in the ankle involving the synovial sheaths of the tendons of muscles in the posterior compartment of the leg. The area involved is from the medial malleolus to the calcaneus, and the heel pain results from compression of the tibial nerve by the flexor retinaculum.

14.7 - adult acquired flatfoot deformity due to damage to which muscle / tendon results in ... think unopposed actions

tibialis posterior = very active during stance phase = inversion + plantarflexion (supination) = rapid changes - concentric = to push off - eccentric = to slow pronation during loading + support medial arch very susceptible to strains tendon rupture = collapse of medial longitudinal arch. = adult acquired flatfoot deformity (stages 1-4) - dropped navicular head = along with calcaneonavicular (spring) ligament trauma - eversion of the rearfoot - splaying of the forefoot into excessive abduction - Marked eversion and lateral instability of the mortise can also stress the tibial nerve within the tarsal tunnel, =neuropathy , weakness of intrinsic mms of the foot loss of the dominant inversion force at the rearfoot = eversion forces produced by the fibularis longus and brevis are left significantly unopposed = strong rearfoot eversion · The chronically and severely pronated foot never locks in late stance, which significantly reduces the stability needed during push off

The KNEE joint how many articulations weak or strong ... explain

two joints within one joint capsule The bony articulation appears to be quite unstable BUT the joints are stabilized by strong ligaments, tendons, and a strong joint capsule. difficult to differentiate between which joint is injured based on symptoms because injury to one will cause pain , bruising , etc in the entire area

Acquired dislocation of the hip joint

uncommon because the articulation is so strong and stable. Dislocation may occur during an automobile accident when the hip is flexed, adducted, and medially rotated - the position of the lower limb when a person is seated in a car. Posterior dislocations are most common. A head-on collision that causes the knee to strike the dashboard may dislocate the hip when the femoral head is forced out of the acetabulum. The fibrous capsule ruptures inferiorly and posteriorly, allowing the femoral head to pass through the tear in the capsule and over the posterior margin of the acetabulum onto the lateral surface of the ilium, shortening and medially rotating the affected limb. Because of the close relationship of the sciatic nerve to the hip joint, it may be injured (stretched and/or compressed) during posterior dislocations or fracture-dislocations of the hip joint. This kind of injury may result in paralysis of the hamstrings and muscle distal to the knee and supplied by the sciatic nerve. Sensory changes may also occur in the skin over the posterolateral aspects of the leg and over much of the foot because of injury to sensory branches of the sciatic

Popliteus Action OKC vs. CKC

unlocks extended knee joint = to allow for flexion closed chain (weightbearing) - ER of femur vs. open chain - IR of tibia

Time to heal : Tendon

up to 12 weeks = poor blood supply + don't response well to stresses

Gout what causes it symptoms normally seen in the foot how do you treat it

urate crystal accumulation in joint - inflammation (5 signs) - intense pain Your body produces uric acid when it breaks down purines - found in naturally in our bodies + in certain foods, such as steak, organ meats and seafood. + alcoholic beverages, especially beer, and drinks sweetened with fruit sugar (fructose). Swelling + Redness 1st MTP Limited ROM 1st MTP Pain with ANY motion Other Joints in Body May Be Involved (thumb, elbows, etc) Avoidance Until the Body Decreases Inflammation Genetic = you have it for life

Prepatellar bursitis

usually a friction bursitis caused by friction between the skin and the patella; however, the bursa may be injured by compressive forces resulting from a direct blow or from falling on the flexed knee. If the inflammation is chronic, the bursa becomes distended with fluid and forms a swelling anterior to the knee. This condition has been called "housemaid's knee"; however, other people who work on their knees without knee pads, such as hardwood floor and rug installers, also develop prepatellar bursitis. Suprapatellar bursitis: abrasions

MCL of Knee - prevents ________ - how do you find it via palpation

valgus stress medial meniscus direct attachment RUNS PAST THE PES DISTALLY to medial border of tibia

Forefoot : varus vs. valgus - what does each cause at the hindfoot

varus = toes angled inward ... causes hindfoot (calcaneous) valgus vs. valgus = toes angled outward ... causes hindfoot (calcaneous) varus

LCL of Knee - prevents ________ - how do you find it via palpation

varus stress Is DEEP to IT band = put varus stress on it by having them cross their legs to find it

Pes Equinus

walking/standing on forefoot-toes (heel off ground)

Lateral Patellar Tracking is often due to ____________ -> think Mms / bony alignment

with knee near full extension MM if pull of vastus lateralis > VMO = can cause lateral subluxation / dislocation Alignment Coxa Varus --> Genu Valgus --> dislocation

14.1 ankle injury resulting from the extremes of dorsiflexion or plantar flexion

· Extreme and violent dorsiflexion of the ankle (leg over foot) can cause the mortise to "explode" outward, injuring several tissues - widening of the mortise - displacement of the fibula = ligaments of the distal tibiofibular joint + interosseus membrane = high ankle / syndesmotic sprain - mechanism of injury common to many high ankle sprains involves dorsiflexion + excessive abduction (external rotation) + version to the mortise · Highest ligamentous strains - anterior tibiofibular ligament + anterior fibers of the deltoid ligament · Because of the likelihood of trauma of multiple tissues, the recovery time following high ankle sprains often exceeds that required for the more common inversion sprain

Stress Fx of Femur (top side vs. bottom side) = very important causes how to dx how to rehab

•Caused by OVER (load, stress, strain, distance, time) Won't show for up to 2 weeks So don't take x-rays for t least 2 weeks bc they wont show up Causes •Amenorrhea in females •Low aerobic fitness when starting intensive exercise program •Smoking •Steroid use (corticosteroid) Signs and Symptoms •Exercise induced pain in the hip, groin, or thigh •Referred pain to the knee Rehab •Restore ROM/strength following pinning/rest •Correct any muscle imbalances that may have lead to abnormal stresses •Recommend modification of activities that may have lead to abnormal stresses •Insufficiency fractures require addressing the source of the insufficiency •Dietary, hormonal management

Sciatic Nerve Glide (sliders)

•Sliders can be defined as moving neural tissue in one direction, and at the same time slackening it at the other axis of movement - i.e., SLR with neck extension. The principle is to allow neural tissue to move without putting mechanical strain on it. •Sliders should be comfortable, pain-free movements. Treatments usually involve few repetitions, but done frequently - i.e., 10 times, every hour.

MSK Ankle Sprain Grade I including tests

•Slight/no swelling •Slight point tenderness •No loss of function •Ant. Drawer - neg •Talor tilt - neg

Nerve Tensioner

•Tensioners can be defined as moving neural tissue in one direction, and then at the same time move it in an opposite direction, thus putting some mechanical load/"stretch" to the system. Example - SLR with neck flexion. •Patients may feel a slight stretch at end-ROM. To avoid any ischemic reaction, these movements should "tease" the end-ROM, rather than produce a sustained stretch. •Fewer repetitions/sets per day will be needed •It is recommended to first use some "sliders" before tensioners, to "prime the nervous system." The same may be done following tensioners, to alleviate any ischemic reaction. •Slight tingling may be present, but numbness should be avoided.

Fibular Fractures commonly occur at __________ how do you dx this? / signs

•The weakest area is the one that fails •Typically in the malleolus or just superior to the malleolus •Avulsions of ligament can also occur •Decide on x-ray through Ottawa Ankle Rules and through manual testing Fracture •Point sensitivity •Vibration response •Stress on bone creates response •X-rays positive

Double Crush Syndrome what is it how do we treat it

•When a nerve is compressed or injured, the nerve has an increased excitability and will affect other tissues it contacts in the distal aspects of its course. These tissues will be enhanced in excitability in conjunction with the nerve and will further compress the nerve causing a secondary More Common in UE but possible in LE
