Closed Packed Positions, Resting Positions, And Capsular Patterns

Question 1

Sternoclavicular CPP And CP

Answer 1

CPP - full flexion of glenohumeral joint

RP - arm at side

CP - pain at extreme ranges (es. Horizontal adduction and humeral elevation)

Question 2

Acromioclavicular CPP And CP

Answer 2

CPP - 90 degrees abduction and external rotation of glenohumeral joint

RP - arm at side

CP - pain at extreme ranges (es. Horizontal adduction and full humeral elevation)

Question 3

Glenohumeral CPP And CP

Answer 3

CPP - 90 degrees abduction and full external rotation

RP - 30-60 degrees abduction, 30 degrees flexion, and slight internal rotation

CP - external rotation > abduction > internal rotation

Question 4

Ulnohumeral CPP And CP

Answer 4

CPP - full extension with supination

RP - 70 degrees flexion

CP - flexion > extension

Question 5

Radiohumeral CPP And CP

Answer 5

CPP - 90 degrees elbow flexion with 5 degrees supination

RP- 70 degrees flexion

CP - flexion > extension

Question 6

Proximal Radioulnar CPP And CP

Answer 6

CPP - 5 degrees supination and full extension

RP - 70 degrees flexion and 35 degrees supination

CP - pronation = supination

Question 7

Distal Radioulnar CPP and CP

Answer 7

CPP - 5 degrees supination

RP - 10 degrees supination

CP - pronation = supination (pain at extreme rotation)

Question 8

Radiocarpal CPP And CP

Answer 8

CPP - full extension

RP - slight flexion with slight ulnar deviation

CP - flexion = extension

Question 9

Intercarpal CPP And CP

Answer 9

CPP - extension

RP - neutral or slight flexion

CP - n/a

Question 10

Carpometacarpal CPP And CP

Answer 10

CPP:
Thumb - full opposition
Digits 2-5 - full flexion

RP:
Thumb - midway between abduction and adduction, flexion and extension
Fingers - midway between flexion and extension

CP:
Thumb - abduction > extension
Digits 2-5 - all motions equal

Question 11

Metacarpophalangeal CPP And CP

Answer 11

CPP:
Thumb - full opposition
Digits - full flexion

RP - slight flexion

CP - flexion = extension

Question 12

Interphalangeal CPP And CP

Answer 12

CPP - full extension

RP - slight flexion

CP - flexion > extension

Question 13

Coxofemoral CPP And CP

Answer 13

CPP - full extension, internal rotation and abduction

RP - 30 degrees flexion, 30 degrees abduction, and slight external rotation

CP - internal rotation, flexion, abduction no particular order

Question 14

Tibiofemoral CPP And CP

Answer 14

CPP - full extension with external tibial rotation

RP - 25-30 degrees of flexion

CP- flexion > extension

Question 15

Patellofemoral CPP And CP

Answer 15

CPP - full extension

RP - 25-30 degrees of flexion

CP - flexion > extension

Question 16

Proximal Tibiofibular CPP And CP

Answer 16

CPP - with CPP of tibiofemoral joint, maximal anterior glide

RP - equal anterior and posterior

CP - pain on stress

Question 17

Distal Tibiofibular CPP And CP

Answer 17

CPP - full dorsiflexion

RP - plantarflexion

CP - pain on stress

Question 18

Talocrural CPP And CP

Answer 18

CPP - full dorsiflexion

RP - 10 degrees plantarflexion

CP - plantarflexion > dorsiflexion

Question 19

Subtalar CPP And CP

Answer 19

CPP - full inversion

RP - midway between inversion and eversion

CP - inversion > eversion
