Question | Answer |
---|---|
What are the 5 functions of the foot? | support base that provides stability for upright posture w/ min muscle effort, mechanism for rotation of the tibia and fibula during the stance phase, flexibility to adapt to uneven terrain, flexibility for shock absorption, lever during push off |
What are the joints of the hindfoot? | Tibiofibular, Talocural, Subtalar |
Tibiofibular Joint Resting position? | Plantar flexion |
Tib fib closed packed position | Max dorsiflexion |
Tib Fib capsular pattern | Pain on stress |
Which hindfoot joints causes the most problems | Talocrural and Subtalar joint |
What type of joint is the Talocrural | modified hinge |
Talocrural resting position | 10 deg plantarflexion |
Talocrural closed packed position | Maximum dorsiflexion |
Talocrural capsular pattern | Plantar flexion, dorsiflexion |
talocrural if musclular what would be limited | Dorsiflexion>plantarflexion |
Subtalar joint degrees of freedom | 3 |
Subtalar joints what happens when you supinate the foot | PF, inversion, adduction |
Subtalar joints what happens when you pronate the foot | DF, eversion, abduction |
Subtalar Resting position | Midway between extremes |
Subtalar closed packed position | Supination so it is firm for push off in gait |
Subtalar Capsular pattern | Varus, valgus (5 deg or both) |
Midfoot 5 joint what are they? | Talocalcaneonavicular, cuneonavicular, cuboidenavicular, cuneocuboid, calcaneocuboid |
Midfoot Resting position | between extremes of range of motion |
Midfoot closed pack | supination |
Midfoot Capsular pattern | DF, PF, add, medial rotation |
Forefoot joints? | Tarsometatarsal, Intermetatarsal, Metatarsophalangeal, Interphalangeal |
Mechanism of injury chronic vs acute | Chronic - runner tendinosis Acute = inv & PF, ev & DF |
Runners questions? | shoes, miles/week, terrain, hills, pace, how often, when does it start hurting, what time of day, have they changed mileage, where do they run on the road |
Observation Weight Bearing Anterior view | Supination (pes cavus) or pronation (pes planus) |
Observation weight bearing posterior | pes planus, cavus, pump bump (swelling where achilles tendon attaches |
Observation WB lateral view | medial arch, lateral arch, transverse arch |
Non weight bearing | Valgus vs varus rear foor to forefoot, Plantar flexed first ray (in all 2-5th in one plane and 1st is PFmore than the rest), Heel cord tightness(foot more PT limited DF) |
Talipues equinus? | Limited dorsiflexion, contracture of gastroc and soleus |
Club foot | Congenital deformity, also called talipes equinovarus |
Hindfoot varus | inversion of the calcaneus when subtalar joint in neutral |
Morton's Metatarsalgia | interdigital neuroma that forms between 3 and 4th web space |
Exostosis (bony spur) | attached to ligaments, fascia, tendons |
Bunionette (tailor's Bunion) | similar to bunion with hallus valgus but on the 5th metatarsal |
Turf toe | Hyperextension injury |
Morton's foot | second toe longer than first |
First MP joint is commonly affect by what? | Gout and bunions |
Navicular bone articulates with 5 other bones what are they? | talar head, 3 cuneiforms and the cuboid |
the sustentaculum Tali and why is it clinically important? what will occur if there is problems with its anatomical alignment | Clinically itsupports the talus and serves as an attachment of the spring ligament it out of alignment will lead to flat feet (pes planus) |
Medial tubercle of the talus is an insertion point for what? | Medial collateral ligament |
the sinus tarsi is filled with what muscle? | extensor digitorum brevis |
what attaches to the styloid process of 5 metatarsal? | peroneus brevis |
What is a tailer's bunion? | occurs when swelling, redness and tenderness occurs over the styloid process of the 5th |
what runs through the cuboid groove | Peroneus longus |
Medial calcaneal tubercle is an attachment sight for what? what commonly happens here? | Abductor hallucis muscle and the plantar aponeurosis, commonly a location for heel spurs |
What part of the calcaneus is weight bearing | the medial calcaneal tubercle NOT the lateral calcaneal tubercle |
What provides the main blood supply to the foot? | Posterior tibial artery |
which ligament on the lateral side of the ankle is the stongest? | Posterior talofibular ligament |
