65
Q

what is the open pack position for the subtalar joint?

A

Pronation b/c the axis are parallel

66
Q

how do you calculate RF Neutral position?

A

inversion + eversion = total STJ Motion
Total STJ/3
RF Valgus - (total STJ/3)= Amt varus

67
Q

will severe restriction of talar abduction PROM lead to reduction in supination or pronation ROM in OKC?

A

Calcaneous is free to move on talus so talar abduction limitation in an open chain will not limit supination or pronation

68
Q

will severe restriction of talar abduction PROM lead to reduction in supination or pronation in CKC?

A

WB restricts calcaneal ABD/ADD & PF/DF so talus has to move to supply component motion b/c abd & DF of talus is required for CKC supination

69
Q

what makes up the talocalcaneonavicular joint?

A

Talonavicular & subtalar joints

70
Q

what Is one significant Biomechanical aspect of TCN joint?

A

WB locks navicular movement, ligaments bind calcareous to navicular so CKC TCN joint motion is the talus moving on relatively fixed C-N unit

71
Q

how is TCN the key to foot function?

A

Foot distal to TCN form a single elastic unit that will move in response to & in compensation for subtalar motion

72
Q

what joints make up the transverse tarsal joint?

A

Talonavicular & Calcaneocuboid

73
Q

what two joint complexes is the talonavicular apart of?

A

Transverse tarsal & talocalcaneonavicular joint

74
Q

what is the function of the short & long plantar ligaments?

A

maintain longitudinal arch of foot

75
Q

what is the function of the lateral band of the bifurcate?

78
Q

CKC STJ (talar) ABD/ADD & DF/PF cause motion where?

A

talonavicular joint

79
Q

CKC STJ (calcaneal) Iv/EV cause motion where?

A

calcaneocuboid joint

A

adaptively shorten

92
Q

Overtime what would pronation do to plantar aponeurosis?

A

adaptively lengthen

93
Q

what percentage of body weight is directed to talus?

94
Q

what percentage of BW is directed to forefoot?

95
Q

what percentage of BW is directed to rear foot?

96
Q

in terms of stabilization to the 1st ray what does the tibialis posterior do?

A

will PF & ADD 1st ray, important for stabilization at push off

97
Q

what are 3 Biomechanical consequences of tip posterior compensatory pronation?

A
  1. Adduction & PF of talus
  2. Navicular & medial cuneiform depression
  3. Tension overloads tibs post
98
Q

In terms of stabilization of the 1st ray what does fibularis longus do?

A

AB & PF 1st ray, important for stabilization at push off
Heavily influenced by position of cuboid pulley

99
Q

describe cuboid pulley?

A

Displaces fibularis tendon inferiorly to improve PF moment (MA & torque output)

100
Q

what would occur with alteration of cuboid pulley?

A

Reduces mechanical advantage to PF & ABD 1st ray

101
Q

what are 3 consequences of fib longus compensatory pronation?

A
  1. Alteration of cuboid pulley
  2. Reduced advantage to PF & ABD 1st ray
  3. DF 1st ray & 2nd MT head overload
102
Q

what will occur if rear foot varus is uncompensated?

A
  1. Medial plantar condyle will be off ground
  2. Excessive WB of lateral foot
  3. 5th metatarsal head callus
  4. Failure of STJ to pronate reduces the shock absorbing qualities of foot
103
Q

what will occur if rear foot varus is compensated?

A

Calcaneal eversion from STH pronation

104
Q

what will occur if forefoot varus is uncompensated?

A
  1. Medial forefoot will be off ground
  2. Excessive WB 5th ray
  3. 5th metatarsal head callus
105
Q

what will occur with compensated forefoot varus?

A
