Thoracic and lumbar spine ROM

A

Flexion - 80
Extension - 25
Lateral flexion - 35
Rotation - 45

26
Q

Q angle

A

13 degrees in males and 18 degrees in females

27
Q

Solid ankle foot orthoses

A

Control DF/PF and IV/EV. Can be articulating or not. Articulation allows the tibia to advance over the foot. Trim line is anterior to the medial malleolus

28
Q

Posterior leaf spring AFO

A

Plastic AFO with trim line posterior to the malleoli. Assists with DF and prevents foot drop. Requires adequate medial/lateral control by the patient.

29
Q

Floor reaction AFO

A

Assists with knee extension during stance through positioning of calf band and or positioning of ankle

30
Q

Corset

A

Spine orthosis - constructed of fabric. Abdominal compression and support. Utilized to provide pressure and relieve pain associated with mid and low back pathologies

31
Q

Milwaukee Orthosis

A

For realignment of spine due to scoliotic curvature. Pelvis to upper chest with corrective padding

32
Q

TLSO

A

Prevents all trunk motions - common for post-surgical stabilization

33
Q

Symes amputaton

A

surgical removal of the foot and the ankle joint including the malleoli

34
Q

Chopart disarticulation

A

Disarticulation at the midtarsal joint

35
Q

Prosthetics: Causes of lateral bending

A

Prothesis too short, improperly shaped lateral wall, high medial wall, prothesis aligned in abduction
Poor balance, abduction conracture, short residual limb, weak hip abductors, hypersnsitive and painful residual limb

36
Q

Prosthetics: Causes of abducted gait

A

Prothesis too short, high medial wall, poorly shaped lateral wall, prothesis positionined into abduction, inadequate suspension, excessive knee friction

Abduction contracture, adductor roll, weak hip flexors and adductors, pain over lateral residual limb

37
Q

Prothetics: Causes of circumducted gait

A

Prothesis too long, too much friction in the knee, socket too small, excessive PF of foot

Abduction contracture, weak hip flexors, difficulty flexing knee, painful anterior distal residual limb

38
Q

Prosthetics: Causes of excessive knee flexion during stance

A

Socket set forward in relation to foot, foot set in excessive DF, stiff heel, prothesis too long

Knee or hip flexion contracture, pain anteriorly in residual limb, decreased quad strength, poor balance

39
Q

Prosthetics: Causes of vaulting

A

Prothesis too long, inadequate socket suspension, excessive alignment stability, foot in increased PF

Residual limb discomfort fear of stubbing toe, short residual limb, painful hip/residual limb

40
Q

Rotation of forefoot at heel strike

A

Excessive toe-out buitl in, loose fitting socket, inadequate suspension, rigid SACH heel cushion

Poor muscle control, weak medial rotators, short residual limb

41
Q

Forward trunk flexion

A

Socket to big, poor suspension, knee instability

Hip flexion contracture, weak hip extensors, pain with ischial weight baring, inability to initiate prosthetic knee flexion

42
Q

Medial or lateral whip

A

Excessive roation of the knee, tight socket fit, valgus in the prosthetic knee, improper alginment of toe break

weak hip rotators, knee instability

43
Q

A long prothesis can cause:

A

Circumduction, abducted gait, excessive knee flexion during stance, contralateral vaulting

44
Q

A short prothesis can cause:

A

Lateral bending

45
Q

A stiff heel can cause:

A

Excessive knee flexion during stance

46
Q

A high medial wall can cause:

A

Lateral bending or abducted gait

47
Q

Inadequate suspension can cause

A

Abducted gait, rotation of forefoot at heel strike, vaulting, forward trunk flexon

48
Q

A poorly shaped lateral wall may cause:

A

Lateral bending, abducted gait

49
Q

Pain in the residual limb (based on location) may cause: Ant vs lateral vs overall hypersensitivity

A

Hypersensitive limb/overall pain: lateral bending or vaulting

Lateral pain: abducted gait

Anterior pain: Circumducted or excessive knee flexion during stance
