common injuries Flashcards
t/f isolated high ankle sprain is common
false
other injuries with high ankle sprain
bone bruise OA deltoid lig fib fracture lateral ankle sprain
History for high ankle sprain
anterior pain between tib and fib
pain during WB/push off
physical exam of high ankle sprain
AITFL tendor on palpation
short stance phase
toe walking
special tests for high ankle spr
external rotation test squeeze test DF maneoever one leg hop cross leg test fibular translation drawer test
is there swelling in high ankle sprain
usually not much
___ of all ACL injuries are non contact
70-80
common mechanism for non contact ACL
plant and cut
single leg jump landing
is there a gender discrepancy after puberty for females and ACL
no
why females at more ACL risk
intrinsic factors (increased dynamic q angle, quad dominate, smaller ACL)
extrinsic factors (nm control, mm recruitment)
name two neuromuscular patterns
glute dominance
quad dominance
why is quad dominance a problem
creates anterior shear on knee
glute dominance encourages what activation
glute and ham activation
when is one leg hop test positive
unable to complete 10 reps without significant pain
are special tests accurate to determine degree of injury
no
AITFL and PITFL contribute to __ of joint stability
77
__ ligmanet important in mortise stability
deltoid
only __ movement when AITFL PITFL
1-1.9mm
three ways to classify the high ankle sprains
chronologically
radiographyically
functionally
chronological classifcation
acute (within 3 weeks)
subacute (3 weeks to 3 months_
chronic (beyond 3 months)
aim of ACL injury prevention
modify extrinsic factors
improve landing
proprioception
nm recruitment
easier to get back from high ankle or lateral ankle sprain
lateral is easier
name two injury prevention programs
PEP
FIFA11
high ankle sprain managemnt
conservative if no fracture / significant tear
surgical (severe)
pre op acl goals
control pain, swelling normal ROM gait pattern LE strength balance
risk of young athlete having ACL surgery
damage the growth plate leading to leg length discrepancy
risk of non surgical option
risk of future meniscal tears and chondrol injury
what 4 things are ACL management guided by
skeletal maturity
physiological maturity
chronological maturity
extent of acl tear
Management Phase 1 high ankle sprain
protect decrease inflammation PRICE immolve non weight bearngg
management phase 2 high ankle
mobility strength increase function partial WB bilateral balance join goes to restore Df
when to progress from phase 2-3 in high ankle
ambulate full WB without pain
may still need brace or heel lift
management stage 3 high ankle sprain
increase function, unilateral balance / strength
treadmill, squatting, lunges
