A

hip instability after birth

36
Q

who might have hip dysplasia

A

breach birth

37
Q

what dose a hip click mean

A

hip is weak, bone is present, but not developed

38

A

displacement

39

limited hip abdution
shorteing of femur
ortolani click less than 4 weeks
gluteal folds
knee height

41
Q

what determines Pavlik harness or casting

A

ortho
click or clunk

42
Q

why must we have careful assessment of babies with hip dysplasia

A

they grow very quickly

43
Q

what position does the pavlik harness place them in

A

abducted

44
Q

what is metatarsus adductus (intoeing)

A

convexitey (curvature) of the lateral border of the foot

45
Q

metatarsus adductus (intoeing) is what type of defect

A

positional

46
Q

metatarsus adductus (intoeing) tx

A

stretching
shoes
cast

47
Q

metatarsus adductus (intoeing) cause

A

intrauterine positooning and genetic factors

48
Q

metatarsus adductus (intoeing) vs clubfoot

A

club foot cannot return to normal position

49
Q

clubfoot tx

A

surgery
serial casting
- start with little bit of stretch and keep going

50
Q

club foot involves

A

bone
muscle
ligmanet
tendon
nerve

51
Q

club foot may be delayed in

A

walking

52
Q

in club foot if the tendon is involved may need to stretch

A

entire leg

53
Q

scoliosis what is it

A

lateral S or C shapted

54
Q

scolisois degree

A

> 10

55
Q

what is the msot common spinal deformity

A

scoliosis

56
Q

s/s of scolosis

A

trunk asym
uneven shoulder and hip height
one sided rib hump
promient scapula’
Tshirt may sit on agnle

57
Q

when does scolosis becomes noticable

A

preadolsecent growth spurt

58
Q

3 composents when diagnosing scolosis

A

lateral curvature
axial rotation
skeletal maturity

59
Q

lateral curvature

A

sideways curve
Cobb angle

60
Q

Cobb angle

A

hip to spine angle

61
Q

Axial rotation

A

spine can rotate

62
Q

skeletal maturatiy

A

amount of calcification

63
Q

what are used to determine degree of curvature

A

standing radiographs

64
Q

more calcification =

A

more surival intervention rather than brace

65
Q

clues for early detection of scolosis

A

clothes that fit on angle

66
Q

mild scolosis (10-20%) treatment

A

strength
stretch
brace (maybe)

67
Q

moderate scolosis (20-40) treatment

require bracing

68
Q

severe scolosis (40-50) treament

A

necessitate surgery
spinal fusing
bracing

69
Q

post op scolosis fuse

A

pain control
prevent complications of immobiltyb

70

s/s of osteomyletis

A

tenderness at site of infection
erythema
war,
edema
limp/refusal to bear weight
refusal to use extremity
fever
chills
vomiting

73
Q

osteomyletis tx

A

IV antibiotics

74
Q

what is slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE)

A

head of the femur seperates from the epipysis and slips backwards with potential or complete dislocation

75
Q

SCFE msot common in

A

prepuberty boy
overweight or obese

76
Q

if SCFE is not treated this leads to

A

calfication

77
Q

SCFE S/S

A

acute or chronic hip, thigh, or knee pain, limited internal rotation and obligated external rotation of the hip, out-toe-ing (walking with the toes our)

78
Q

how will SCFE look like on x ray

A

ice cream slipping off a cone

79
Q

SCFE tx

A

potential traction, brace, surgical, screws or pins

80
Q

legg-calve-perthes what is it

A

childhood condition in which the proximal femoral epiphysis has a temporary interruption in blood supply leading to bone necrosis and subsequent repair

81
Q

legg-calve-perthes is it a self limiting issue

A

yes

82
Q

when does legg-calve-perthes get revascularized by

A

4 years

83
Q

legg-calve-perthes s/s

A

pain in hip and on affected side (may radiate to the knee) leg length discrepancy or limp, internal rotation and abduction of the affected limb are limited

84
Q

legg-calve-perthes tx

A

maintaining the femoral head and restoring ROM
- may need surgery to clean it out if caught late
- bracing to allow healing
