Q

coxa valga

A

increase in the head neck angle

30
Q

coxa valga results in

A

decreased joint congruity

decreased moment arm for ABD

leg length discrepancies

31
Q

coxa valga –> decreased joint congruity

A

increased chance of dislocation

32
Q

coxa valga –> decreased moment arm for…

A

ABDs

increased muscle force required to create the same amount of torque

increase compression on the joint

33
Q

coxa valga –> leg length discrepancy

A

affected femur is too long

34
Q

angle of torsion of the femur

A

twisting

occurs in the transverse plane b/w the femoral neck axis and the transcondylar axis

35
Q

what is the angle of torsion referred to as

A

anteversion

36
Q

anteversion in a normal adult

A

15 degrees

37
Q

anteversion in an infant

A

up to 40

38
Q

pathological increase in the angle of torsion

A

anteversion

39
Q

beyond 15 degrees of anteversion

A

someone is considered to have an anteverted hip

femoral head is facing more anteriorly
–> toes medially rotate
–> toe is posture

40
Q

what happens to IR with anteversion

A

there is more room to glide posteriorly

increased IR

41
Q

what happens to ER anteversion

A

decrease in ER
–> little room to glide anteriorly

42
Q

pathological decrease in the angle or torsion

A

retroversion

femoral head is facing too far posteriorly
–> toe out posture

anything less than 15 degrees is a retroverted hip

43
Q

what is a retroverted hip d/t

A

w sitting

intrauterine “packaging”

44
Q

what happens to ER –> retroversion

A

increases

more room to glide anteriorly

45
Q

what happens to IR –> retroversion

A

decreases

less room to glide posteriorly

46
Q

arthrokinematics –> open chain

A

convex femur moves on the concave acetabulum

BM + roll –> same

glide –> opposite

47
Q

flexion and extension arthrokinematics

A

Flexion: BM + R –> A, G –> P

Extension: BM + R –> P, G –> A

48
Q

ABD and ADD arthrokinematics

A

ABD: BM + R –> S, G –> I

ADD: BM + R –> I, G –> S

49
Q

IR and ER arthrokinematics

A

IR: BM + R –> A, G –> P

ER: BM + R –> P, G –> A

50
Q

arthrokinematics –> closed kinetic chain

A

pelvis moves on the femur

concave on convex –> everything same direction

51
Q

motions of closed kinetic chain

A
