Q

what to look for in PMHx

A

check for hip or ankle injury history bcs usually compounded na injuries

30
Q

knee gives away during uphill or downhill

A

retropatellar lesion - ACL, PCL or hamd

31
Q

knee gives away bcs patella slips out of place

A

subluxation or plica

32
Q

how to compare locking vs catching

A

locking - cant fully extend knee with flexion normal

catching - momentary locking or giving way

33
Q

causes of locking

A

loose bodies, meniscus pathology or hamstring spasm; spasm locking

34
Q

causes of catching

A

reflex inhibition or pain

35
Q

discuss grating or clicking

A

d/t degeneration or structure snapping over another

36
Q

what to look for in OI

A

deformities, abnormal protrusions, dislocations, subluxations or bony enlargements

contusions, ecchymosis and swelling

37
Q

differentiate contusion vs strain

A

contusion - direct blow or trauma to area

strain - over stretch or fast eccentric

both will present as ecchymosis

38
Q

discuss baker’s cyst

A

fluid part of the bursa goes out d/t excessive flex-ext

39
Q

what to consider if painful c resistance and active motion

A

active structures

40
Q

what to consider if painful c passive motion and joint play

A

passive structures

41
Q

what is the reverse J sign

A

seen in PFPS - patella moves superolaterally; normal is superomedial

42
Q

possible causes of reverse J sign

A

weak VMOs or tight ITB

43
Q

normal lateral movement of patella

A

1/2

44
Q

normal medial movement of patella

A

1/4

45
Q

capsular pattern of knee

A

flex > ext

46
Q

possible causes of extension lag

A

reduced force production of quads

excessive resistance from connective tissues

faulty arthrokinematics

47
Q

discuss heel height difference

A

if may mas mataas = extension lag

highest point of calcaneus as reference
