MIDTERM Classifications Flashcards
PHASE 1 of Luck classification
PROLIFERATIVE phase
fibroblasts, cellular activity
PHASE 2 of Luck classification
ACTIVE phase
nodules form
PHASE 3 of Luck classification
RESIDUAL phase
collagen maturation
plantar fasciitis versus fasciosis
- fasciitis: more acute, INFLAMMATORY process
- fasciosis: more chronic, DEGENERATION of the fascia
pirani classification:
purpose and total possible score
- assesses the severity by using a 6-point scoring system and 6 different physical exam findings.
- 3 points assess the midfoot deformity and 3 points assess the hindfoot deformity
when performing the 6 Pirani physical exam findings,
what would be 0 points?
no abnormality
when performing the 6 Pirani physical exam findings,
what would be 0.5 points?
moderate abnormality
when performing the 6 Pirani physical exam findings,
what would be 1 point?
severe abnormality
Tx for Pirani hindfoot score > 2
>83% requiring Achilles tenotomy
Treatment for total Pirani score: 2-4
required a mean of 4 biweekly casts
Treatment for total Pirani score of 4-6
required a mean of 7 biweekly casts
dimeglio classification:
purpose and scoring system
- significant equinus indicates significant deformity/pathology,
- more equinus = more points,
- more plantarflexion of medial column = more points,
- more varus = more points,
- more internally rotated = more points
- 20-point scoring system after applying gentle corrective maneuver
- Rated I - IV based on total points
dimeglio stage I
benign (<5 points),
soft-soft, resolving
dimeglio stage II
moderate (5-9 points)
soft-stiff, reducible, partly resistant
dimeglio stage III
severe (10-14 points), stiff-soft, resistant, partly reducible
dimeglio stage IV
very severe (15-19 points),
stiff-stiff, resistant
seddon classification: overview
- classification of nerve injury
- describes into:
- Neurapraxia
- Axonotmesis
- Neurotmesis
