Ox Exam Practice Flashcards
Patient recovering from Guillian-Barre syndrome experience motor function return in which pattern
Proximal to distal
Inadequate strength of gastrocnemius results in which gait deficiencies
Excessive DF at midstance
Atlanoaxial instability is common in
Rheumatoid arthritis
Function of tibialis anterior
DF and inversion
Excessive knee flexion when standing in a locked metal KAFO results when
Calf band is too shallow
Poliomyelitis results from an acute viral infection of the
Anterior horn cells
When fitting a thermoplastic AFO, which helps diminish a moment at heel strike
Decreasing heel height of shoe
Which adjustment to a metal AFO would best accommodate excessive tibial torsion
Deflection of sidebars
Quadriplegic Pt with a functioning C7 will lose
Finger flexion
C7= Elbow extensors
Hemivertebrae is a ______ spinal deformity
Congenital
Pt with KAFO due to dropfoot and painful knee hyperextension states that knee pain has decreased and foot clearance has improved, but she fell twice when descending a ramp. How to modify KAFO
Decreasing PF resistance
Mechanical knee joint that is too distal to the anatomical knee
Anterior distal pressure on the thigh to increase when the knee is flexed
Primary goal of lower extremity Ox management in children with hypertonia is to
Decrease spasticity
Cauda equina comprises the
Nerve roots below the level of the spinal cord (L2 and down)
In treatment of kyphotic deformity with CTLSA (Milwaukee), where in relation to the apical vertebra should the kyphosis pads be placed
Adjacent and one vertebral body inferior
Which nerve innervates peroneus brevis
Superficial peroneal
The ACL attaches to the non articular aspect of the tibia and to the posterior aspect of the
Lateral surface of the lateral femoral condyle
Anatomical landmark for locating the mechanical ankle joint axis is the
Distal border of the medial malleolus
Dorsiflexion stop performs the primary function of which muscles at midstance
Gastrocnemius/soleus
Primary goal in using a CTLSO (Milwaukee) in cases of Scheuermanns disease (juvenile apophysitis) is to
Reduce kyphosis
Most appropriate Ox for a Pt with a median and ulnar nerve laceration at the wrist
A WHO (long oppones with thumb adduction stop)
Pt has strong extensor spasticity secondary to brain pathology. The best ankle joint configuration for the Pt would be one with a/an
Plantar flexion stop
(PF stop = effective for absent PF spasticity or absent DF muscle group)
MMT grade of fair (3/5) is assigned for a range
Against gravity
Primary action of the brachioradialis muscle
Flex the elbow
Radial n. C5-6
