MSK I Flashcards
Hip angle of inclination typically is..
115-125
coxavalgaof the hip is..
> 125 deg
anteversion is.. & is consideredexcessivewhen?
> 25-30 deg excessive; anteversion is when thefemoral neck angles too far anteriorly
the extensor hood assists with..
ext of PIP and DIP jts
the ACL limits..
ant glide of tibia and limits tibial IR during flex
LCL and MCL are taut when?
extension
hip ER/IR ROM is..
40-60/30-40 deg
1st MTP normal ROM
45-70 deg
T2 vs T1 weighted MRI?
T1 typically used to assess bony anatomy
T2 usually used to assess soft tissue structures
posterior internal impingement test IDs..
an impingement b/t RTC & greater tuberosity OR posterior glenoid & labrum
4 tests for thoracic outlet syndrome:
Adson’s, Roos , Wright (hyperabduction), costoclavicular syndrome test
pronator teres syndrome test tells you..
if there is entrapment of the median nerve in the pronator teres ms
Finkelstein;s tells you about.
deQuervein’s
Bunnel-Littler test IDs..
tightness in structures surrounding the MCP jt - differentiates b/t capsular and instrinsic tightness
–IF flexion is lmtd in BOTH stabilization of the MCP & flex MCP/flex PIP, then it’s a capsular issue
IF when performing the Bunnel Littler test, there is more PIP flexion with MCP flexion, then..
the intrinsic ms are tight (not the capsule)
what two tests are used to determine hip flexor tightness?
Thomas’s test THEN Ely’s used to differentiate rec fem vs iliopsoas
Phalen’s test is used for..
carpal tunnel
Froment’s sign indicates..
weakness of abductor pollicis 2/2 ulnar nerve dysfxn
Allen’s test is used to determine..
vascular compromise (distal ulnar and radial arteries)
Craig’s test tells you..
What are norms?
if hip is anteverted or retroverted
-norms: 8-15 deg of hip IR
Normal Q angle is..
13 for men
18 for women
Noble compression test tells you about..
IRB friction syndrome (distally)
anterior drawer test of the ankle indicates..
laxity of ligaments, specifically the ATFL
what special test is used to tell if there is laxity of the calcaneofibular or deltoid ligaments?
talar tilt
what test evals the integrity of the Achille’s
Thompson’s
How do you differentiate b/t vascular and vestibular causes of dizziness/vertigo?
Hautant’s test: palms up at 90 deg, close eyes, if wobbles - vestib
- -can add on head/neck ext to test for vascular compromise
- hold both for 30 sec
