30
Q

why are pressures that are distal lateral more concerning?

A

foot is medial to the weight line and pushes the top of the socket out laterally

31
Q

PTB socket –> inset foot alignment

A

relief for the distal fibula

32
Q

TSB socket –> inset foot alignment

A

no reliefs

urethane sleeve for pressures

33
Q

socket pressures w/ an outlet foot

A

lateral pressure shifts proximal

medial pressure shifts distal

34
Q

pressures _____ not as problematic

A

proximal lateral

35
Q

PTB socket –> outlet foot

A

relief for head of fibula

36
Q

TSB socket –> outlet foot

A

urethane sleeve

37
Q

neutral foot alignment socket pressures

A

somewhere in the middle

medial

lateral

38
Q

ideal –> choosing inset v. outset

A

ideal is to aim for normal alignment w/ normal BOS or inset alignment

39
Q

when will normal alignment work –> choosing inset v. outset

A

normal length of RL

good skin w/o skin dysfxn

ideal RL

40
Q

alignment change/adjustment –> inset v. outset

A

when the pt feels pain

move foot laterally

41
Q

possible reasons for pain/breakdown –> inset v. outset

A

short RL

scar tissue

sensitive skin

prominent fibula

42
Q

how is decision confirmed –> inset v. outset

A

dynamic alignment

pain

gait deviation

43
Q

goal of A/P alignment

A

create stability

44
Q

create stability –> AP alignment

A

RL in socket in sagittal plane

knee joint in sagittal plane

45
Q

what do we have to consider –> AP alignment

A

in relation to the stance phase of gait

foot levers

46
Q

consider alignment in relation to stance phase of gait –> AP alignment

A

HS

MS/HO

PO

47
Q

normal ground rxn for at knee –> HS

A

posterior to knee

knee flexion

48
Q

normal ground rxn for at knee –> MS/HO

knee extension

49
Q

normal ground rxn for at knee –> HO/TO

A

posterior to knee

knee flexion

50

(breast of the heel)

51
Q

what does normal alignment mimic –> AP

A

normal GRF

52
Q

normal alignment has –> AP

A

normal gait levers

53
Q
