Ankle and Foot Flashcards
DF/PF happens on what axis
coronal axis
INV/EVERSION happens on what axis
longitudinal axis
pronation composite motion
DF
eversion
ABDuction
supination composite motion
PF
inversion
ADDuction
ankle angle more than 180
calcaneovalgus
ankle angle less than 180
calcaneovarus
ankle joint capsule is thin and weak where?
anteriorly and posteriorly
deltoid ligament prevents
eversion
pronation
stressed with PF, inversion
anterior talofib
stressed with DF and inversion
calcaneofibular
as a group, the lateral side resists
inversion and supination
how many degrees of DF needed for walking?
10
ankle DF and PF are primarily limited by
soft tissue structures
situated in sinus tarsi
reinforces subtalar joint
space b/w necks of talus and calcaneus
cervical lig
WB subtalar joint motion is no longer
composite
WB subtalar supination
calcaneal INV
talar ABD
DF
tibiofibular medial rotation
medial rotation of the leg in WB does what to subtalar joint
pronation
lateral rotation of the leg in WB does what to subtalar joint
supination
subtalar eversion ROM
5-10
subtalar inversion ROM
20-30
transverse tarsal joint is what kind of shape?
S shaped
this motion increases foot flexibility
allows shock absorption
allows accommodation to uneven surfaces
pronation
this motion increases foot stability
makes foot rigid for push up (propulsion)
supination
pes planus
pronation
aka
flat foot
