Ankle 3 - goni and mobs Flashcards
what is a good test for the gastroc
striaght heel rises test
count rep until failure
what is a good test for the soleus
heel rise with the knee bent
how do we test the tib ant
up and in
how do we test the tib post
down and in
what is selective tissue tensioning
range of motion and strength testing
how do we find the sinus tarsi
find the lateral malleolus and move inf and ant
it should be the hole between the talus and the calcaneus
how do we find the deltoid ligament
medial, inf to the medial malleolus
evert the foot and feel the broad flat resistance
goni - calcaneal inversion and eversion
axis - achilles tendon
stationary arm - middle of the calf
moving - posterior midline of the calcaneus
goni - what is the normal ROM for inversion
20
goni - what is the normal ROM for eversion
10
what is the normal ratio between inversion and eversion
1:2
goni- foot supination
axis - ant aspect of the talocural joint, mid- way between the malleoli
stationary - ant midline of the tibia
moving - ant midline of the 2nd met
what is normal supination
30
goni - foot pronation
axis - ant aspect of the talocural joint, mid- way between the malleoli
stationary - ant midline of the tibia
moving - ant midline of the 2nd met
what is normal pronation
25
goni - MTP flexion
axis - medial aspect of the 1st MTP
stationary - medial midline of the first met
moving - medial aspect of the first MTP
what is normative data for the first MTP
flexion - 80
ext - 20
goni - talocural DF/PF
axis - just distal to the lateral mall
stationary - in line with the fib head
moving arm - base of the calcaneus
what is normal DF
15 - 25
what is the end feel for DF
firm
talocural - movements at this joint
PF and DF
talocural - athro
convex talus moving on the concave distal tib fib
opposite
talocural - how to improve DF
posterior glide of the talus
talocural - how to improve PF
anterior glide of the talus
subtalar - movement seen at this joint
inversion and eversion
subtalar - increase eversion
pronation
subtalar - increase inversion
supination
talonavicular plantar medial
PF and EV
talonavicular dorsolateral
DF and IN
calcaneal-cuboid plantar medial
PF and IN
calcaneal-cuboid dorsal lateral
DF and EV
how do we improve GT ext
dorsal glide
how do we imrpove GT flex
plantar glide
GT arthokinematics
same
cancave - proximal phalanx
moving on
convex - metatarsal
artho - of plantarflexion
anterior glide of the talus
posterior glide of the tibia
artho - of dorsiflexion
posterior glide of the talus
anterior glide of the tibia
what are two mobs to improve PF in the ankle
anterior glide of the talus
posterior glide of the tibia
what is a moblization to improve DF
posterior glide of the talus
what is the procedure for the posterior glide of the talus
assess the joint play: 20 -30 of plantar flexion needed
pt long sitting
PT leg pushing the foot into greatest amount of DF
stablize the tibia close to the joint line
mobilizing hand on the talus and provide a posterior mob
what is the procedure for anterior glide of the talus -
improves plantarflexion
put the foot into the OPP - 20 -30 of PF
stabilize the tibia
provide a posterior force through the calcaneus and talus
what is the procedure for the posterior glide of the tibia
(this is a the same as the ant glide of the talus - improving PF)
stabilizing hand - on the talar heads
moving hand - provides a posterior glide of the tibia as close the joint line as possible
what is the point of talocural distraction
to improve general joint motion of the talocural joint
what is the procedure for the talocural distraction - long sit
hand grasp the talus as close to the joint line as possible
keep your elbow in and distract back towards your body
what is the procedure for the talocural distraction - prone
pt has their knee bent
PT place their own knee on the pt’s leg to avoid the transfer of force
grasp the talus and distract up
what is the procedure for subtalar distraction
stabilize the talus
grasp the posterior calcaneus with you hand
distract posteriorly
subtalar supination improves
inversion
subtalar pronation improves
eversion
what is the procedure for subtalar supination
pt is prone with knee flexed
stablize the talar heads
mobilize the anterior facet of the calcaneus medially
what is the procedure for subtalar pronation
pt is prone with knee flexed
stablize the talar heads
mobilize the anterior facet of the calcaneus laterally
which mid tarsal mobs help with general supination and pronation
the lateral ones
why would we mob the first metatarsal plantar or dorsal
the intermetatarsal joints need mobility to help the foot be a mobile adapter during gait
what is the indication for distraction with add of the great toe
Indicator of hallux valgus (bunions)
what is the procedure for distraction with add of the great toe
stabilize: the mets and provide a slight abd force
distract the proximal phalanx and provide an add force
this can also be applied as a thrust
a plantar glide of the great toe improve what
flexion
a dorsal glide of the great toe improve what
extension
what are the indicators of the cuboid whip test
pain directly over the cuboid
pain is worse with WB tasks
weakness and discomfort with toe-off portion of gait
may be the result of an ankle inversion sprain
what is happening that causes the need for a cuboid whip
the lateral cuboid being sublexed in the plantar direction
what is the procedure for a cuboid whip test
pt is prone with their knee flexed to 70-deg
interlock fingers on the dorsum of the foot while thumbs are positioned on the plantar medial aspect of the cuboid
extend the knee and plantarflex the ankle quickly while directing force over the lateral cuboid
