lecture 8b: foot/ ankle examination Flashcards
what are 7 injuries associated with pronatory foot types (flat)
• Plantar fasciitis
• Interdigital neuroma
• Shin-splint
• Sesamoiditis
• Tarsal tunnel syndrome
• Patellofemoral dysfunction
• Posterior Tibialis Tendon Dysfunction
what are 7 injuries associated with supinatory foot types (high arch)
• Metatarsalgia or stress fracture
• Peroneal tendinitis
• IT band friction syndrome
• Lateral ankle sprain
• Lower back pain
• Sesamoiditis
• Plantar fasciitis
most studies for lateral ankle sprains support ____ and/or ___ over immobilization , ultrasound , RICE alone and RICE + meds
manual therapy and/or manipulation
is functinal treatment or immbolization better for acute ankle sprains
functional treatment
t/f: as BMI increases so does the risk for no contact ankle sprains in HS FB players
true
the balance program made by McGuine , included both ___ and ___ balance activities for ankle sprains
static and dynamic
what are teh variables for doing manipulations post inversion ankle sprains (lateral)
- symptoms worse when standing
- symptoms worse in evening
- navicular drop > or even to 5 mm
- distal tibiofubular joint hypomobility
if 3 are presents then probability to do manip is high
does adding myofascial therapy with manipulations add help with management of acute inversion ankle sprain (lateral)
no it does not help by adding myofascial release
the study where they looked at the effects of mobilization with movement on DF range of motion , dynamic balance and self reported function individuals with chronic amkel instability what did they find a positive change in
sport specific function but no change in DF ROM
what is the moderate evidence (B) for risk factors for acute lateral ankle sprain
• Pt age
• BMI
• Pain coping strategies
• Report of instability
• Hx of ankle sprain
• Ability to WB/pain w/ WB
• Ankle DF ROM
• Balance
• Ability to jump and land
what is considered weak evidence (C) for chronic ankle instability for risk factors
- Previous tx
- Number of previous ankle sprains
- Pain level
- Self reported function
- Dynamic postural control
- Balance systems
what clinical measures from strong evidence (A) for lateral ankle sprains
- ankle swelling
- ankle ROM (particularly DF in open and closed chain)
- talar translation/Inversion
-SL balance ( star excursion balance test )
** Need to measure >2 times during episode of care
what** self report measures** for lateral ankle sprains are consider strong evidence (A)
- Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM)
- Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS
what pain/self efficacy outcome measure for lateral ankle sprain is weak evidence (C)
- Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia
- FAB-Q
what physical performance test for lateral ankle sprain is moderate evidence (B)
- Single limb hop tests
- Timed when appropriate
what PT interventions for lateral ankle sprain is considered strong evidence (A)
- external support and AD
- manual therapy
- ther ex exercise
what kind of evidence is Cryotherapy and diathermy for laterla ankle sprains
C weak
