class 7: my notes Flashcards
what does the femoral artery turn into
the pop artyerty > ant and post tib art
what is wells criteria numbers
3+ - high risk
1-2 point - moderate risk
<1 point - low risk
what is the path of the sciatic nerve
sciatic
common peronal and tibial nerve
common peronal> deep and superfical
tibial nerve > plantar medial and lateral
what nerve the the saphanoues nerve arrise from
the femoral nerve (L2, 3, 4
what is a postive popliteal angle testing
greater than 20-deg of flexion
stroke test grading
zero - no wave produced
trace - small wave on the medial side
1+ - larger bulge on the medial side
2+ - effusion returns to medial side after medial side stroke ( no lateral stoke needed)
3+ - so much fluid it is not possible to move the effusion from the medial side of the knee
what are the common landmarks for knee edema measurements
joint line
mid patella
and from there 5 cm above and below
what is crepitus 2/2
Air bubbles - air seeping into the soft tissue
damage to the knee - tendon is moving over a protruding bone within the knee joint.
what is what is OSD knee
It’s an overuse injury that occurs when the patellar tendon is repeatedly stressed, such as during jumping, running, or going up and down stairs.
haracterized by pain and a bony prominence over the tibial tuberosity
what is Sinding-Larsen Johannsen (SLJ)
Apophysitis of the inferior pole of patella
what population do we normally see SLJ and OSD
- Males (12-14 y.o.) > Females (10-12 y.o.)
- Early sport specialization = 4 fold inc risk
where is Hoffa’s fat pad
behind and below the patella
fat pad vs bursa
Fat pads act as shock absorbers and divide the knee joint into chambers, while bursae reduce friction between tissues
frontal hip angle
angle of inclination
coxa vara and valgum
transverse hip angle
torsional angle
anterversion
retro version
genu valgum vs coxa valga
Genu valgum
Also known as knock-knee,
Coxa valga
This condition occurs when the shaft of the femur bends outward in relation to the neck of the femur -
what is the normal value for the torsional angle of the hip
8-14
anterversion toes
toes in
retroversion toes
toe out
what is the orientation of the femoral head
ALI
anterior, lateral, inferior
what muscles insert on the greater trochanter
glute min and med
piriformis
obertator internus and gemelli muscles
vastus lateralis - orginates from here
FAIS male
cam
FAIS female
pincer
what is the hips capsular patterns
IR > abd > flexion
what is SCFE syndrome
a disorder of adolescents in which the growth plate is damaged and the femoral head moves (“slips”) with respect to the rest of the femur.
what is legg calve perthes disease
femoral head) temporarily loses its blood supply. As a result, the head of the thighbone collapses, and the area becomes inflamed and irritated.
what is normal for craigs test
10-16 IR
anterversion > 16
retroversion <10
