Q

What is the screw home mechanism?

A
  • SPIN
    *The rotation between the tibia and the femur that occurs during terminal knee extension
    ➢Medial femoral condyle is larger than the lateral femoral condyle
    *“Knee locking”
    When does it occur
    *During extension, the lateral side of the joint completes the motion, resulting in the tibia laterally rotating in the last 20o of knee extension.
    *Lateral rotation causes a passive tension in the ACL which creates a fulcrum for lateral rotation and causes it to cross over the PCL and “lock” the knee joint into extension.

Q

How does the patella move?

A
  • Extension: the patella is NOT in contact with the trochlear groove
    • 10-20° of knee flexion: the inferior margin of patella articulates with trochlear groove of femur
    • As knee flexion increases the contact area of the patella moves proximally
    • As knee flexion increases the contact area of the condyles moves posteriorly

Q

Factors contributing to stability at the knee joint

A
  1. STATIC(passive):combination of non contractile and bony elements
    e.g. menisci, ligaments, capsule, articular cartilage, ITB
  2. DYNAMIC (active): muscles acting on or across the
    knee joint

Q

Static: Menisci functions at knee joint

A
  1. withstand load bearing forces
    2. increase contact area at the tibiofemoral joint → reduces stress at the joint surfaces
    3. assist in movement of femoral condyles
    4. assist in stabilising translatory movements

Q

Movements of the menisci

A

Considerable distortion throughout range

Q

Static: Ligaments

A
  • Combinations of structures provide stability at the knee – no single structure in isolation
    * Concept of primary and secondary restraints
    * ✓work together to provide stability
    ✓primary restraints – ‘workers’
    ✓secondary restraints – ‘helpers’
    * If primary restraint is damaged, the secondary restraint takes the load -> deterioration and increased joint instability

Q

A
  • Major extensor of knee

    throughout the range of knee extension
  • Stabilises the patella within trochlear groove
