66
Q

Screw-home Mechanism

A 
-Occurs at final 20-30 degrees of       
  knee extension
-Closed Chain
- ACL Tightens restricting lateral       
  condyle
-Medial Condyle continues
-Tibia ER and Femur IR
-Locks the knee @ full extension
67
Q

popliteus, causes tibia to IR (MR)

68
Q

ACL

Attaches anterior tibia and runs posterior, lateral, and proximal to the lateral condyle
-Resists knee extension

69
Q

Open Packed position for Tibiofemoral

25-30 degrees of knee flexion

70
Q

Closed Packed position for Tibiofemoral

A

Full extension with ER

71
Q

Capsular Pattern for Tibiofemoral

A

Flexion > Extension

72
Q

Patella Alta

A
  • High riding
  • Lengthening of inferior patella tendon
  • Tight quads
  • Subluxation common
73
Q

Patella Baja

A
  • Low riding

- More bone on bone issues

74
Q

3 Factors that influence the length of the internal moment arm of knee extensors

A
  1. Shape and position of Patella
  2. Shape of distal femur
  3. The migrating medial-lateral axis of rotation
75
Q

Functions of Proximal Tibiofemoral Joint

A
  1. Dissipation of torsional stress applied 2 the ankle
  2. Dissipation of lateral tibial bending movements
  3. Tensile (max) weight bearing
76
Q

Open Packed position of Tibiofemoral Joint

A

0 degrees of plantar flexion (neutral)

77
Q

Closed Packed position of Tibiofemoral Joint

A

Full ankle dorsiflexion

78
Q

Capsular Pattern of Tibiofemoral Joint

A

pain with biceps femoris muscle contraction

79
Q

Two types of Patellar Tracking?

A

Lateral and Medial, Lateral is more common

80
Q

Lateral Patellar Tracking

A

ITB and Lateral retinacular fibers are tight.
Bowstringing
W/ external force (valgus, ER on the femur, or IR of the tibia)–> causes increased tension on quads and PT, and bowstring force.
Results= increased lateral displacement of patella
Quad tendon and Patellar Tendon run more oblique

81
Q

Medial Patellar Tracking

A

VMO- overdeveloped and pulling
Raised lateral facet- pushing
Medial Patellar retinacular fibers- pull
