What are the osteokinematics of the subtalar joint?

A

pronation and supination

138
Q

What bones make up the subtalar joint?

A

talus and calcaneus

139
Q

What motions are involved in pronation of the subtalar joint?

A

eversion + abduction + DF

140
Q

What motions are involved in supination of the subtalar joint?

A

inversion + adduction + PF

141
Q

During pronation of the subtalar joint, the calcaneus rolls into eversion and _________ on the talus

A

glides medially

142
Q

During supination of the subtalar joint, the calcaneus rolls into inversion and _________ on the talus

A

glides laterally

143
Q

What axis is the subtalar joint on?

A

oblique axis = inferior posterior lateral to superior anterior medial

144
Q

What axis is the mid tarsal joint on?

A

oblique axis

145
Q

What makes up the mid tarsal joint?

A

talanavicular and calcaneocuboid joint

146
Q

What are the osteokinematics of the mid tarsal joint?

A

pronation and supination

147
Q

What axis is inversion/eversion of the ankle/foot on?

148
Q

What axis is abd/adduction of the ankle/foot on?

A

vertical axis

149
Q

What axis is DF/PF of the ankle/foot on?

150
Q

What is the muscle action of tibialis posterior?

A

inversion and PF

151
Q

What is muscle action of tibialis anterior?

A

DF, inversion, adduction

152
Q

What are the muscle actions of fibularis longus and brevis?

A

eversion and PF

153
Q

What are the muscle actions of extensor digitorum brevis and longus?

A

toe ext and DF

154
Q

How does rear foot pronation/supination affect mid foot stability?

A

supination of the calcaneus increases mid foot stability

pronated calcaneus leads to flexible midfoot

155
Q

What are the effects of pronation and supination up the kinematic chain?

A

closed chain subtalar pronation is couples with tibial and femoral internal rotation, increasing valgus stress at knee

at hip, internal rotation flexion and adduction

156
Q

What are the 3 rockers in the sagittal plane gait?

A

heel rocker: heel strike and subsequent PF

ankle rocker: tibial advancement over foot by ankle DF

forefoot rocker: during heel rise, ankle PF, and MTP joint extension

157
Q

What is the order of the 3 rockers of gait?

A

heel > ankle > forefoot
