Musculoskeletal Flashcards
pain with a FABER test means there is likely dysfunction in the
posterior capsule of the hip, lumbar or SI joints
FABER is a test for what condition
FAI
what is the test to determine SCFE?
anterior impingement test which involved hip flexion to 80-90 degrees, ADD and IR.
typical signs of SCFE
pain in the groin, a leg length discrepancy, limitations in IR and toeing out during gait. also, you get knee pain too
as gait matures, velocity
increases
as gait matures, cadence
decreases
as gait develops step length
increases
as gait develops, single limb stance time
increases
Speeds test indicates a
SLAP tear
Excessive foot pronation during midstance to toe off is the result of a compensated ___ deformity.
rear foot (forefoot) varus deformity
what is a hallmark sign of posterior tibial tendon dysfunction
“too many toes” sign, where you have hindfoot valgus and forefoot abduction so that you see too many toes when looking at someone from behind.
cubital tunnel entraps the ___ nerve
ulnar
what are two MSK conditions that a radial nerve glide can treat
lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) and DeQuervain’s tenosynovitis.
Marked ulnar drift is a hallmark sign of __
RA
what kinds of ligaments are affected in people with RA
cervical spine ligaments. so you must do cervical spine stabilization therex and promote proper alignment and posture for this population.
for a s/p meniscus repair, what do you want to limit and why
you want to limit knee flexion to 90 degrees to not increase shear forces on the newly repaired meniscus.
what is a stoppage gait
this occurs with weakness in ankle dorsiflexors. The knee or the hip must excessively flex to clear the foot from the ground. Or the lower leg must externally rotate to prevent the foot from dragging on the ground.
what compensation or deviation will you see in someone with a weak glut med during gait
lateral trunk lean
gait compensations with someone with a weak quadriceps
lateral trunk lean to unweight the weak quad or circumduction of the leg
what about gait compensations for someone with a weak glue max
they will have a posterior thrust of the trunk to keep the hip in extension.
longus Colli and longus capitis are____ and can be tested with this test
deep neck flexors, and the deep neck flexor test.
Scheuermann disease (describe it )
this affects teenaged boys, and affects T7-T10 typically. this is increased thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis with pain in the middle to lower thoracic region and pan with rotation side to side.
axillary nerve innervates
deltoid and teres minor
long thoracic nerve innervates the
SA
supra scapular nerve innervates the
infra and supra
musculocutaneous nerves innervates the
biceps, brachialis, coracobrachialis.
how can you differentiate between a functional and structural rib hump
a functional rib hump is only present in standing, not in full forward flexion. The structural rib hump will be present in both of those conditions (standing and full forward flexion)
what will the rotation and side bending be if there is a right rib hump
there will be right rotation and left side bending.
