Hip abduction in side lying b. Hip ER in sidelying c. Hip flexion in standingd. Hip flexion in standing You would do hip extension in standing.What two structures limit knee valgus?MCL, ACLIn normal WB activities, does the GRF vector pass medial or lateral to the knee joint center? What type of moment does it create?During weight bearing activities such as walking and running, the resultant GRF vector passes medial to the knee joint center, thereby creating a varus moment at the knee.How does the varus moment impact soft tissue structures on the medial aspect of the knee? Lateral?Varus moment is resisted by lateral soft tissue restraints of the knee, namely the IT band and the LCL. It creates greater compressive forces within the medial compartment of the knee compared to the lateral compartment.What happens to the pelvis if the hip abductors are weak? What is this sign called? How does it affect the varus moment arm? What does it do to the forces within the soft tissue structures?In the presence of hip abductor weakness, the contralateral pelvis may drop during single-limb support (Trendelenburg sign), causing a shift in the center of mass away from the stance limb. Movement of the center of mass away from the stance limb increases the distance from the resultant GRF vector and the knee jt. center, thereby increasing the varus moment at the knee. The ability to generate greater hip abductor moment during walking was protective against ipsilateral medial compartment OA progression in older adults.A common compensation for hip abductor weakness is to (elevate/drop) the contralateral pelvis and leaning the trunk (towards/ away from) the stance limb. Known as the 'Compensated Trendelenburg sign', this moves the resultant GRF vector closer to the hip joint center, thereby reducing the demand on the hip abductors. This could create a (varus/valgus) moment at the knee (lateral to knee joint center) during movements such as cutting or landing from a jump which would place a greater strain on the medial structures unlike the typical (varus/ valgus) movement.A common compensation for hip abductor weakness is to ELEVATE the contralateral pelvis and leaning the trunk TOWARDS the stance limb. Known as the 'Compensated Trendelenburg sign', this moves the resultant GRF vector closer to the hip joint center, thereby reducing the demand on the hip abductors. This could create a VALGUS moment at the knee (lateral to knee joint center) during movements such as cutting or landing from a jump which would place a greater strain on the medial structures unlike the typical VARUS movement.During the loading phase of walking, the GRF vector falls where with respect to the hip and knee causing what moments at these joints? To counteract these moments, what muscles must work and how are they firing? ____________ The resultant GRF falls (anterior/posterior) to the hip and (anterior/posterior) to the knee, thereby creating (flexion/extension) moments at both joints. As such, (concentric/ eccentric actions) of the hip and knee extensors are required to counteract these moments.The resultant GRF falls anterior to the hip and posterior to the knee, thereby creating flexion moments at both joints. As such, eccentric actions of the hip and knee extensors are required to counteract these moments.How does encouraging our patients to perform a forward trunk lean during a drop-jump task change the position of the GRF vector? How does it impact the hip and knee extensors? A forward trunk lean would move the GRF vector (anteriorly/ posteriorly), thereby (increasing/ decreasing) the demand on the hip extensors, while simultaneously (increasing/decreasing) the demand on the knee extensors. Landing with more of an erect trunk would have an opposite effect, (increasing/ decreasing) the demand on the knee extensors and (increasing/decreasing) the demand on the hip extensors.A forward trunk lean would move the GRF vector anteriorly, thereby increasing the demand on the hip extensors, while simultaneously decreasing the demand on the knee extensors. Landing with more of an erect trunk would have an opposite effect, increasing the demand on the knee extensors and decreasing the demand on the hip extensors.When is the strain on the ACL the greatest? Occurs w/ a combined loading pattern consisting of frontal and transverse plane joint moments and anterior tibial shear. The strain on the ACL has been reported to be greater when these loads are applied with the knee in a position of (flexion/ extension) compared to greater (flexion/ extension) values.Occurs w/ a combined loading pattern consisting of frontal and transverse plane joint moments and anterior tibial shear. The strain on the ACL has been reported to be greater when these loads are applied with the knee in a position of relative EXTENSION compared to greater FLEXION values.Females exhibit a biomechanical profile that is thought to place them at an increased risk for ACL injury. Notably, female athletes have been shown to perform athletic maneuvers with (increased/ decreased) knee and hip flexion, (increased/ decreased) quad activation, and (greater/ lesser) knee valgus angles (leads to increased ACL injury) and moments when compared to males.Female athletes have been shown to perform athletic maneuvers with DEC knee and hip flexion, INC quad activation, and GREATER knee valgus angles (leads to increased ACL injury) and moments when compared to males.Several studies have reported that reduced hip strength is related to (greater/lesser) knee valgus angles and moments due to little usage of hip extensors and more usage of muscles in the frontal plane.Several studies have reported that reduced hip strength is related to GREATER knee valgus angles and moments due to little usage of hip extensors and more usage of muscles in the frontal plane.How are the joint kinematics of the PFJ different in NWB vs. WB positions?When NWB, the patella tilts and displaces laterally relative to the fixed femur. In contrast, the primary contributor to lateral patella tilt and displacement during WB is IR of the femur underneath a stable patella. The patella attaches to a stable tibia via the quad tendon. As such, quad contraction during WB anchors the patella to the comparatively stable tibia, allowing the femur to move underneath the extensor mechanism. In NWB, in knee extension the patella moves relative to fixed femur.What two general principles should be incorporated into the design of a program to address proximal impairments related to knee injury?Increased Q-angle → increased valgus = bad Diminished hip strength especially in females = badExcessive ant tilt of the pelvis resulting from weakness of the posterior rotators of the pelvis (like the gmax, hamstrings, abdominals) and/ or tightness of the hip flexors may result in compensatory lumbar ____________ (lordosis/kyphosis) and a resulting posterior shift in the trunk position. A posterior shift in the COM during functional activities would ________ (inc/dec) the knee flexion moment and the demand on the knee extensors, while simultaneously ___________ (inc/decreasing) the hip flexion moment and the demand on the hip extensors.Excessive anterior tilt of the pelvis resulting from the weakness of the posterior rotators of the pelvis and/ or tightness of the hip flexors may result in compensatory lumbar LORDOSIS and a resulting posterior shift in the trunk position. A posterior shift in the COM during functional activities would INC the knee flexion moment and the demand on the knee extensors, while simultaneously DEC the hip flexion moment and the demand on the hip extensors.The primary goal of taping is to pull the patella away from the painful area, thereby unloading it and reducing pain, rather than as an adjustment for malalignment of the joint. Does this significantly affect patellofemoral lateralization or tilt?No. While it is effective in controlling anterior knee pain, it does not significantly affect patellofemoral lateralization or tilt. In addition to taping, biofeedback, stretching of the lateral structures and an HEP are recommended,Which of the following is NOT an advantage of a bone-patellar-bone graft? a.

T or F?F - progress knee flexor strengthening exercises cautiously for a hamstring tendon graft and knee extensor strengthening for a patellar tendon graft.List 2 exercises precautions regarding closed-chain training for a pt post ACL reconstruction.When squatting, ensure that the knees do not go past toes as the hips descend b/c this increases shear forces on the tibia and could potentially place excess stress on the autograft. Avoid closed-chain strengthening of the quadriceps between 60° to 90° of knee flexion.*List 3 exercise precautions regarding open-chain training for a pt post ACL reconstruction.During PRE to strengthen hip musculature, initially place the resistance above the knee until knee control is established.

Sport Specific AgilityThe ACL video and the Wilk article discuss the impact of neuromuscular fatigue on increasing the risk of ACL injury. When during the treatment session should you have your patient perform neuromuscular control drills?We routinely begin basic proprioceptive training during the second postoperative week, pending adequate normalization of pain, swelling, and quadriceps control.The video mentions that trunk position is important during functional tasks following ACL reconstruction. Should we encourage a forward trunk or an erect trunk? Why?Forward trunk --> less force on the knee extensors and more on the hip extensorsAccording to the Wilk article, which graft type will allow for a more aggressive course of rehabilitation? Why?The healing of bone to bone in the osseous tunnel (patellar tendon autograft), which occurs in approximately 8 weeks in most instances, is faster than the healing of tendon to bone (hamstring autograft), which takes approximately 12 weeks. The theoretical advantage of a larger, stronger allograft that allows more aggressive rehabilitation remains unproven.Both the video and the Wilk article mention the importance of performing patellar mobilizations. According to the Wilk article, what two factors may be limited if patellar mobility is not restored? Why is it important to know the location of an MCL tear, if you patient has a MCL tear along with the ACL tear? How would it affect rehab?The loss of patellar mobility, referred to as infrapatellar contracture syndrome, results in ROM complications and difficulty activating the quadriceps. MCL tears from the proximal origin or within the midsubstance of the ligament tend to heal with increased stiffness without residual laxity. In contrast, MCL injuries at the distal insertion site tend to have a lesser healing response, often leading to residual valgus laxity. Injuries involving the distal aspect of the MCL may be progressed more cautiously to allow for tissue healing; in some instances, these individuals may be immobilized in a brace to allow MCL healing prior to ACL reconstruction. In contrast, injury to the midsubstance or proximal ligament may require a slightly accelerated restoration of ROM to prevent excessive scar tissue formation, and early motion is encouraged and beneficial to the healing of the MCL.What is the medial longitudinal arch composed of?calcaneus, talus, navicular 3 cuneiforms and 3 medial metatarsalsWhat is the role of the medial longitudinal arch?helps with WB activities; major source of frontal plane motion of the footWhere does the medial longitudinal arch get most of its support from?anterior calcaneonavicular ligament, plantar fascia, TP, FDL, FHL, & fib longMedial longitudinal arch is more stable than the Lateral Longitudinal arch?

Symptoms of this pathology can last over 6 months, and there is a presentable high arch along with swelling and brusing over the lateral ligs.Chronic Ankle InstabilityList two outcome measures for CAI.LEFS and the foot & ankle ability measurement (FAAM)What special test is more specific and preferred for chronic ankle instability?Talar tilt testWhat special test is more sensitive for chronic ankle instability?Anterior drawer testIn this pathology, you may see these kinds of complaints... - Frequent sprains - Difficulty running on uneven surfaces - Difficulty cutting/ jumping - "Giving away" feeling - Recurrent p! & swelling - Tenderness - Inability to run - WeaknessChronic Ankle InstabilityThe test can be used to assess physical performance, but can also be used to screen deficits in dynamic postural control due to musculoskeletal injuries (e.g. chronic ankle instability), to identify athletes at greater risk for lower extremity injury, as well as during the rehabilitation of orthopedic injuries in healthy active adults.Star Excursion TestMOI of an ankle syndesmosis sprain?Excess ER or forced DF while in WBWhere would you feel tenderness in a patient with a high ankle sprain?Ant distal tib/fibName 6 special tests for could do for a high ankle sprain.Cotton test Kleiger (ER) test (shown in pic) DF Compression test Fibular translation (drawer) test Heel-thump test Squeeze testA patient with a high ankle sprain can return to sport when they are able to do what 3 things and at what percent of the uninvolved joint?Return to sport when able to: one-leg broad jump, vertical, and 10 crossover hop @ 80% of uninvolved jointMOI of a medial ankle sprain?Excessive eversionYou are less likely to have a medial ankle sprain than the other ankle sprains. If you did do excessive eversion, what might've really happened instead?There is an avulsion from a fracture of the medial malleolus.3 special tests you can do for medial ankle sprain?Talar tilt (shown) Anterior drawer Medial talar glideWhat ligament lies within the sinus tarsi of the ankle, and may be susceptible to injury w/ both a pronatory and/or supinatory MOI?Interosseous Talocalcaneal LigamentWhich demographics would you most likely see ankle impingements?Young dancers, ice skaters, or gymnastsWhat is the MOI of ankle impingement?Excessive DF or PF, compressing the ant or post structures of the ankle.What could be an anterior bony structure that could be impinged on the ankle?Periosteum of the talar neckWhat could be a soft tissue etiology of a posterior ankle impingement?FHL irritation Thickened posterior capsule Synovitis Calcific debrisSome interventions you could do for an ankle impingement?Ice and anti inflammatories Stretch Achilles tendon and strengthen DFsYou patient feels p! behind and distal to the lateral malleolus, and p! w/ resisted eversion and PF. What tendinopathy could this be?Peroneus brevis/ longusYour patient feels p! distal to the medial malleoli w/ inv/PF, and you see that they have a loss of their medial arch height (pronated foot). What tendinopathy could this be?Posterior tibialisYour p! feels p! w/ great toe flexion and extreme PF, and the p! is posterior and inferior to the medial malleolus. What tendinopathy could this be?Flexor Hallucis LongusTHA Interventions in each phasePost-Op - early mobilization Max - isometrics (hip ABD) Mod - AROM, mobs, normalize gait (symmetrical), hip ABD/ext strength like clams Min - resisted clams/ side-steps, step-downs off a boxTKA Interventions in each phasePost-Op - ice/ compression sleeve, TENS Max - quad strengthening, gait training w/ AD Mod - knee mobs, closed chain strengthening, stabilization/ balance Min - sport specific stuff, like lunges in multiplanesPrecautions post THANo ADD past neutral Ant - No hip ext, no leg ER, no crossing legs Post - No flex past 90, no crossing legs, no leg IR Ant - Avoid Ext-ADD-ER Post - Avoid FADDIRSpecific number goals for TKA Max - Knee flex _____ deg, knee ex __________, regain quad strength (at least 3/5) Mod - Full knee ext, knee flex _______ deg, regain quad/ hamstring strength (at least 4/5) Min - back to functional90, 110Legg-Calve-Perthes disease is an idiopathic avascular necrosis of the femoral head in children, mainly _______ (boys/ girls), b/w 4-8. This form of osteochondrosis may have patients presenting w/ a Trendelenburg sign, an _____(out/in) -toeing of the involved extremity, and decreased hip _____/______ with pain.Legg-Calve-Perthes disease is an idiopathic avascular necrosis of the femoral head in children (mainly boys) b/w 4-8.
