Quiz 3 Flashcards
irritable vs non irritable pt neural dynamics (technique)
with irritable pts you want to load away from the tract being isolated (be distal to that nerve) and you don’t sustain the hold you ossilate
no irritable, you want to load near the tract you are isolating (be proximal to that nerve)
dosing of irritable vs non for neural dynamics
non - can do 1- 3 min
irritable - do 15 -60 sec
post hip glide helps improve
flexion and IR
inf hip glide helps improve
abd
ant hip glide helps improve
ext
lateral hip glide helps improve
IR and adduction
explain the loose body hip manip/mob
“hup hup hup”
pt position: supine with the ankles/foot off the end of the table. (The table should be in a very low position to allow for proper positioning of the treatment leg.)
Therapist position: standing btwn pt’s legs & grasps the ankle above the malleoli with both hands (1 hand ant & 1 post)
With L LE → therapists L leg braced against end of table (therapist turned slightly toward LE being manipulated)
*If possible, use assistant to stabilize both ASIS
Starting Position: Lift leg to ~ 60º flexion & slight abduction, start in full IR of the hip/LE,
A quick distraction/ER force is applied three times as the LE is lowered
Between each thrust, return LE to IR before next thrust
Once lowered, return LE to neutral & gently remove the traction force
explain manip for labral reposition
Pt position: supine on a lowered treatment table, with the patient’s treatment leg close to the edge of the plinth.
hip & knee is flexed to 90º (80º of hip flexion is acceptable if 90º is uncomfortable)
Pt lower leg rests on the thigh of the therapist
Therapist Position: foot up on the table, hip and knee flexed to about 90º.
An assistant is again needed to stabilize both ASIS.
Starting: therapist places cephalid hand on the pt’s anterior knee & caudal hand on ankle
A traction force is added when therapist adds DF or PF with his/her ankle.
Once the traction force has been applied, assistant may then stabilize at both ASIS
Stabilization should not be applied before the therapist tractions the joint
Force is increased by flexing the knee more, and adding hip ER in a series of three “scooping” motions.
explain what you might find in femoral ant glide syndrome
Insufficient posterior glide during flexion
Stiff hip extensors, posterior hip capsule
Excessive flexibility of anterior capsule
explain curved glide for IR
pt prone
knee bent and you passively pull lower leg out as you push medially/osscilating on the buttock
force goes caudal, dorsal, and medial
mvmt ends by having pt push into your hand (in IR)
explain curved glide for ER
pt prone
knee bent and you passivley pull lower leg in as you laterally ossilate and push out on the buttock
force goes cranial, ventral and lateral
mvmt ends by having pt push into your hand (ER)
phases post op rehab knee ACL
Phase I - Immobilization / Protection
Minimize immobilization time (tx other joints or non-injured tissues)
Phase II - Rehabilitation
Phase III - Function (sports/life/job)
goals acl rehab
Initiate quad extension
Gain Full Extension ASAP
Off crutches ASAP
ROM/ ROM exercises
0-90 Week 1
0-120 Week 2
0-Full Week 3-4
Patella mobility
Proprioception / Balance
ottowa ankle rules
Pain on palpation: distal 6 cm of fibula (posterior, midline)
Pain on palpation: distal 6 cm of tibia (posterior, midline)
Pain on palpation: base 5th metatarsal
Pain on palpation: navicular tubercle (medial aspect)
Unable to bear weight immediately after injury
Over age of 18 and below age of 55
what is edurep
EURCP: can be used for achilles tendinosis-
Educate- that it is not inflammatory and pain is not directly associated with the pathology (Kennedy Stages)
Unload- heel lift (to put ankle/foot in a more pf position to decrease forces on achilles tendon), active rest with alternative exercise
Reload- make tissue stronger- eccentric program- slow progression of load and speed over 12 weeks
Want to do ex on a step so pt can go beyond horiz (dont have to wait until pain free- can do if 2-3/10 pain)
Caveat: insertional achilles tendon does not respond to ecc loading as well: do NOT go beyond horiz
Prevent- hip strength, lumbar spine, normal foot mechanics- hip can be a big component in distal injuries
talus position during ankle sprain
Talar position: talus can get stuck anteriorly (bc ATFL attaches to ant talus and when this ligament is stressed during forceful inv/pf it can pull the talus ant→ creating ant impingement
best evidence for tx for plantar fasciopathy
PF stretching and orthotics
manual therapy and exercise was superior over E stim and exercise (eversion MT) And the exercise was intrinsic foot strengthening working to increase arch in WB position.
biomechanics of talocrural jt
Convex Talus moves on concave Tibia (open chain)
In gait, Tibia moves anteriorly on a relatively fixed Talus
biomechanics subtalar jt
Bicondylar: movements occur at both joints simultaneously
Anterior joint: GLIDE: concave Calcaneus moves on convex Talus
Posterior joint: ROTATION: convex Calcaneus moves on concave Talus
biomechanics distal tib fib jt
As wedge-shaped Talus comes back (or Tibia comes forward,) the Tibia and Fibula have to ‘splay’ or widen.
Too little = limited DF
Too much = patholaxity, inappropriate talocrural contact point / loading, lacking peroneal origin stability
subtalar joint motion
eversion/inversion
what mobs for ankle stiffness
subtalar lat glide
subtalar
difference btwn walking and running gait
running is 3x that of walking
running is faster, ground reaction force is 3x body wt
biomechanical faults are 3xs as detrimental with running
with running knee is flexed upon strike
with running there is a double float (foot off ground) period
with running BOS narrows
running cycle phases
foot strike mid support take off follow through forward swing foot descent
what is happening during foot strike phase
knee is flexed and foot is ahead
goes: heel, midfoot, forefoot
what is happening during mid support phase
prontated foot
hip and knee are flexed and IR
Dorsiflexion of 10-20 deg
if a person doesn’t dorsi properly what might be compensation
overpronation
raise heel, hyper ext knee
