MT: Intro to NURIC Flashcards

1
Q

Desired Features vs NURIC

A
  • proper contours for functioning muscles - RF and Gluteal Channel
  • stabilizing - ischial containment/shelf
  • distribute pressures - support gluteal muscles
  • precise contouring - not forcing limb into quad shape
  • total contact - prevent distal end edema

Q

Biomechanical Objectives: Coronal Plane

A

Q

Early Ischial Containment

*

A
  • recognized need for narrow ML
  • to allow coronal plane stability

Q

TF Specific considerations

A
  • evaluate & accommodate ROM in hip extension and permit normal stride on contralateral side
  • flexor and extensor muscles accommodated inside socket
  • adductor shape can vary with design

Q

Ischial Support

A
  • critical for patients with minimal muscle tone

Q

Gluteal Support

A
  • achieved by appropriate socket contours (proper shelf height)
  • critical for short residual limbs
  • aids in general loading and comfort

16
Q

Internal Rotation of Medial Wall

A
  • pre-compress adductors
  • facilitate early stance phase loading
  • prevents lateral shifting of socket
17
Q

Sub Iscial Triangle Boarders

A
  • inferior pubic ramus
  • semitendinosis
  • Gracilis
18
Q

Medial Brim Flaring

A
  • prevent adductor roll
  • protects distal aspect of ramus from excessive pressue
  • no vertical component at all
19
Q

Adductor Roll Caused by

A
  • tight scoket
  • inadequate flaring of prox/medial brim
  • too low medial wall
  • patient not getting into socket !!!!!
20
Q

Lateral Compartment

A
  • Stabilization of femur
  • relief for lateral distal femur
  • proximal lateral cupping
  • externally rotated
21
Q

Lateral Wall Contours

A
  • proximal lateral cupping reduces gapping during mid-stance
  • lateral wall stabilized femur
22
Q

Amount of Ischial Containment

A
  • greater containment distributes forces over a larger area
  • contributes to coronal plane stability
  • does not produce “skeletal lock”
23
Q

Socket Flexion

A
  • Allows for even step length on sound side
  • puts extensors on stretch and at functional advantage
24
Q

Socket ADduction

A
  • allows loading of lateral femur
  • puts hip Abductors on stretch and at functional advantage
  • places femur in anatomical alignment
25
Q

Goals of Medial AP measurement

A
  • ischial support
  • medial containment
  • locate ischium in impression
26
Q

Goals of Lateral AP measurement

A
  • gluteal loading
  • prevent anterior gapping while seated
  • allow sufficient room for adductor musculature
27
Q

Subischial Triangle

A
  • provides loading distal to the ischial containment
  • decreases load on ischium
  • compresses adductors to aid in their functinoing
  • parallel to ischium
