Patient Applications

Question 1

groin pain is provoked by passive hip flexion and medial rotation.

This clinical finding may be indicative of damage to the ________________

Answer 1

Anterosuperior labrum

Although a labral tear is not always
symptomatic, a torn labrum can potentially cause anterior groin pain, clicking,
locking, catching, instability, giving way, or joint stiffness

Question 2

structural deviations of
femoral anteversion and coxa valga and a shallow acetabulum (decreased center
edge angle) can result in ________________________

Answer 2

increased articular exposure of the femoral head,

Question 3

Medial meniscal damage might pre-dispose someone to Genu __________

Answer 3

Varum (medial side of the knee is closed)

Question 4

____ of knee flexion for both weightbearing and non-weightbearing exercises, and 0%
strain in positions of greater than 60° of knee flexion.

Answer 4

10 and 30

Question 5

recommended exercises early after ACL reconstruction typically avoid ______ knee joint
positions

Answer 5

fully extended

Question 6

An impairment in inferior patellar glide with accompanying impairments in either medial or lateral patellar gliding
could be contributing to an impairment in ___________

Answer 6

Knee flexion ROM

Question 7

When the foot is maintained in a more pronated position during weightbearing,there can be a sustained _______ force on the lower
extremity. That force may cause _________ at the knee and hip.

Answer 7

medial rotation

medial rotation

Question 8

__________________ dysfunction is usually
associated with adult-acquired flat foot

symptoms: flat feet, complains of pain with
active plantarflexion and inversion

Answer 8

posterior tibial tendon

Question 9

People with ___________ feet may push off during walking with a greater than normal
adductor moment on the great toe that pushes the toe into a valgus (MTP joint
adducted) position

Answer 9

Pronated Feet

Question 10

Plantar Fascitis: The pain typically is localized at the ___________ tubercle where the plantar aponeurosis inserts.

What movement may increase pain?

Answer 10

Medial Calcaneal

Toe extension

Question 11

FOOT ACHING AT END OF DAY?

a primary reason may be that the ______________ have to work harder and longer to stabilize the arches of
the flat foot in comparison with a normal or high-arched foot. The high-arched foot in
particular receives substantial _____________
whereas the flat foot may rely more on the _______________

Answer 11

intrinsic muscles

Passive support

active contraction of extrinsic muscles

Question 12

Ms. Brown walks with a speed of 0.20 m/sec and a cadence of 25 steps per minute. It is evident even on visual inspection that double-limb support time is considerably longer than normal on both steps. Stance phase is more than 60% of the gait cycle on her affected side, but she spends an even greater proportion of time in stance on the unaffected side. Her left step length (unaffected side) is shorter than her right (affected side), but her stride lengths are equal

why?

Answer 12

A person walking in a straight line must have equal stride lengths but may have unequal step lengths
